That’s actually not true. Portland is almost pretty even population wise with Denver. Portland has 2.4 million people in the metropolitan area where Denver is at 2.9 million. City population in Portland is 650k and Denver is 700k.
I know this isn't about the MVP conversation this season but Dame is tied with AI for 8th all time with eleven 50 point games. Steph has jumped up this season scoring over 50 twice to get to eight in his career. Dame is really gaining on Wilt he only has to score 50 in a game one hundred seven more times. Yeah Wilt has 118 games at 50+ and the next best is MJ with 31.
