We've all been operating under the assumption that Giannis is the favorite to win the NBA MVP for the 2018-19 season, but is he? We'll learn more Wednesday when the Bucks travel to Houston and face the reigning MVP and co-favorite for the award, James Harden. Journal Sentinel Bucks beat writer Matt Velazquez chats about that meeting, plus the Bucks' recent hard-fought win over Utah and tough loss at the hands of Eastern Conference heavyweight Toronto. Just how daunting is that road ahead, with 13 of 18 games away from Fiserv Forum, and what has Matt seen from George Hill and Thon Maker in recent games? 

After that, host JR Radcliffe chats with DJ Wilson about his emergence in the Bucks rotation, his underdog story dating back to high school and Michigan hoops.
