Jokic does this stuff so causally man. And if you watch the game, the numbers don't do it justice. There's just this utter sense of control.

65% at the rim, 63% from mid range.

There's no player in the NBA who could take this roster (without Murray) into the playoffs, imo. With Giannis stepping up, KD having a hell of a season, and Embiid learning to playmake, I've seen fans argue cases for those guys either being the best in the world, or, AS good as Jokic right now/as impressive.

And to those fans... I ask, why? What bias do you have that makes you say this?

There's no one who is as impressive by the eye test. There's no one as impressive on paper. And there's no one close to him in ANY advanced stat this year.

This season, he's currently having the best PER season of all time, which leaves him with the two best ever. He's also having the best BPM season ever, a stat in which he has the top 2 ever. He also is having another top 10 all time WS/48 season ever, and WAS having the best season of all time prior to Murray going down, and his two ejections.

Yes. PER, WS/48 and BPM aren't the best statistics, but the fact is, he's putting up all time great PER, WS/48, and BPM seasons at a level and frequency only occupied by Michael Jordan and Lebron James. Consider the fact that he's leading the NBA in PER, WS/48, BPM as well as in VORP, EPM and PIE this season, again, after winning the finals without another all star...

There's no one close right now. And you can count on one hand how many players have EVER peaked higher.

Who has definitely peaked higher? I think it’s fairer to say you can count on one hand the number of players other than him in the debate.

[–] ComfortableDino@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

MJ, LeBron, Shaq for certain imo.

I think you could make a case for Bird and Hakeem as well, if we're talking 2-3 season peaks.
