Nikola Jokic is a better offensive player than Wilt Chamberlain (alien.top)

Do you think the title is true or false? In my opinion, I think Jokic clears Wilt Chamberlain offensively. Wilt is probably the better scorer due to the records but skill wise, Jokic clears him via the eye test with his insane skill gap and that compensates for Wilt's athleticism gap. Nothing more to say on playmaking because Jokic is easily the greatest playmaking big of all time.

Does Jokic's efficiency and skill gap offset Wilt's record breaking numbers and athleticism or do you think Wilt is just better offensively?

While he was on the Warriors his team’s offensive performances were 100% correlated with him taking more shots. On the Sixers, it was a different story because A. He had much better teammates and B. The year they had the best offense ever Wilt literally shot 16% better from the field than any other player in the league
