I think it's fair to argue that this specific season of basketball from Jokic is probably the best offensive statistical season ever produced from a player. The 2PT and 3PT shooting %s are absurd for the volume he's putting up. His assist numbers while doing that are also absurd. I doubt he keeps this up but if he does I'd crown this season the best ever.

I think comparing across eras is tough but I'd curious for people to nominate their favourite Wilt, Jordan, Bird, LBJ seasons against this one to counter Jokic's year today.

Pretty sure Terry Rozier wins this.

Jordan was better.

He absolutely is. I dont care what the Thunder's record is, there is no chance in hell that SGA is more valuable than Jokic. It's not even close.
