Speaking of Steve Nash:


Q-Rich talks about how Nash used to do the dribble full speed into you, hand it off and screen your man at 8:40, and I actually copied that move from him back in the day, and still do it now when playing, and it works very well

Just want to flag that Jokic posted a +12.6 on-court rORTG this season. (It’s +12.6 based on BBREF, and +12.64 based on PBPstats, so basically the same either way).

Obviously we don’t have playoff data for this year at the moment, but Jokic’s on-court rORTG this season is only below 2005 Nash and 2018 Curry, in terms of regular season marks.

And, this is perhaps obvious, but the upshot of putting up one of the highest on-court rORTG’s in history in this particular era is that Jokic almost certainly had the highest raw on-court ORTG any high-minutes player has ever had in the history of the NBA. I think he broke his own record in this regard, which was set in 2023. Depending on whether we look at BBREF or PBPstats, the Nuggets’ offensive rating with Jokic on the floor was 127.1 or 127.48. I don’t think anyone has ever even been particularly close to that.

Updated the OP with 2025 numbers for Steph, Lebron, Jokic, CP3, Durant, and Harden.

Also added SGA to the list. (Yes I realize his PS numbers for 2025 might change a bit after Game 7!)

As Jake said above, Jokic had a huge +12.6 in the RS but then in the PS just a +2.8.
