Bill Walton, by far. He saw the floor as well as the best vision=players ever, like Bird, Magic
There goes my hero. Watch him as he goes.

You need to watch JOkic then he has comparable plays all the time.

5 touchdown passes, great job.

Jokic looks like he has that "I'm playing a computer game" thing Curry had.

Except where Curry it was like someone was exploiting a shooting hack, it looks like Jokic is playing with the computer AI set to min and he's just "lol I know exactly where everyone is gonna be and what they're gonna do all the time"

Most notable big man seasons (in assists per game):

8.6 Wilt Chamberlain (PHI) 1967-68
7.8 Wilt Chamberlain (PHI) 1966-67
7.7 Nikola Jokic (DEN) 2018-19
7.4 Draymond Green (GSW) 2014-15
7.3 Draymond Green (GSW) 2017-18
7.3 Draymond Green (GSW) 2018-19
6.1 Nikola Jokic (DEN) 2017-18
5.4 Joakim Noah (CHI) 2013-14
5.4 Chris Webber (SAC) 2002-03
5.4 DeMarcus Cousins (NOP) 2017-18
5.3 Vlade Divac (SAC) 2003-04

Note that Wilt played over 45 minutes per game during 1966-67-68 (almost 50% more than Jokic 2017-18-19) and that Draymond Green and Chris Webber are (mostly) PF players.

I didn't put up this video for that pass, watch one to Craig and tell me how many players in the league have that kind of instinct , without thinking hurling the ball right on the money , his instincts are off the chart plus great touch.

Sabonis' ACB debut happpened exactly 30 years ago. I am so glad we have Jokic in the league, because it definitely brings me pleasant flashbacks.
