jokic's numbers this year are just insane. the year AFTER winning MVP by a comfortable margin:
- most points per 100 possessions in his career- most FTA/100- most 3 pointers/100 (by a lot)- most rebounds/100 (by a lot)- fewest fouls/100- highest FG%- at or above career averages for 3PT%, assists/100

I don't subscribe to stathead but apparently only 3 players have averaged 35 points/100, 15 rebounds/100, and 10 assists/100. jokic currently is at 40.3/20.9/11.1

its so clearly kd/steph/jokic/giannis in any order and then a drop off to whoever else

putting KD and giannis 1-2 is totally defensible. there’s just the one that really sticks out….

dovetails with the recent ringer & athletic articles about how you can’t simply shot quality your way into good offense anymore bcuz every team knows to hunt threes and dunks/lay ups so more value is being placed on players who can consistently make “low quality” shots

obvs a lot of value in being able to consistently create ok shots too

Wasn’t he the reason they didn’t get hield?

no i thought that lebron just advocated for the westbrook deal instead of the hield deal
― call all destroyer, Wednesday, 22 December 2021 15:38 (two years ago) link
yeah. but they did choose him over caruso and reportedly declined to acquire kyle lowry at the deadline last year bcuz they didn’t want to include THT

yeah, those decisions aren't looking amazing

yah i was thinking of the lowry one. they would be infinitely better with lowry instead of russ

The chart graphically shows that Dame has been having a horrible start to his season, up until a couple of games ago, AS ANYONE PAYING ATTENTION ALREADY KNEW. Amazing to me how the tweeted responses suddenly decide that Dame's worst ever run of games means he has never been anything but a pile-of-crap player. Hmmmph. Casuals.

its crazy how good he is and how bad the rest of that team is right now, not fair 2 judge with their #2 and #3 best players out, but damn. he shd be mvp again but unless they have a better record ppl will sleep on him bc he won it last year.
― class project pat (m bison), Monday, 27 December 2021 14:08 (two years ago) link
jokic having one of the best seasons ever, prob not one of the best thirds of seasons, but you know if he keeps it up
― lag∞n, Monday, 27 December 2021 16:03 (two years ago) link
giannis is putting up 28-12-6 as no worse than the second best defensive player in the NBA on a team that also hasn’t been healthy all year and has a better record in the tougher conference…
― J0rdan S., Monday, 27 December 2021 16:12 (two years ago) link
i have no problem with any of jokic, curry, kd, or giannis winning tbh
― class project pat (m bison), Monday, 27 December 2021 16:13 (two years ago) link
jokic has been definitively better IMHO and if he puts together an entire season like hes played so far he should absolutely win the MVP award but will prob not since he got it last year and there are other guys having great seasons too
― lag∞n, Monday, 27 December 2021 16:17 (two years ago) link
the problem w/ the argument of “he won last year and now he’s even better” is that it ignores that last year every single one of his competitors for the award got hurt and missed significant time and so he kind of won by default. also that giannis was shadowbanned from the race.

to be clear i think jokic should win it this year because hes been the best player
