Who's the MVP? When it comes right down to it, individual defense is steals and blocks. However, this is also offset somewhat by assists where a player passes out so that the player doesn't get a shot blocked, however steals are just steals. A block + steal removes the opposing team’s basket while an assist generates an actual basket for the player’s team. This season: Player SPG BPG Total APG Advantage Jocic 1.3 0.7 2.3 10.0 12.3 Tatum 1.0 0.8 1.8 7.7 9.5 Embid 1.1 1.6 2.7 4.1 6.8 Giannis 0.8 0.8 1.6 5.3 5.9
Last season, Jokic became the FIRST player in NBA history to accumulate at least 2,000 points, 1,000 rebounds and 500 assists in a single season and the Joker did it with a fairly comfortable margin. Abdul-Jabbar missed it by 87 assists in 1975, Chamberlain missed it by 8 points in 1967, and O. Robertson missed it by 15 rebounds in 1961. Nobody else has been even close.
There are only eight players in the NBA that ever had a triple double of 30 points, 20 rebounds, and 10 assist. Jokic just joined Chamberlain, Oscar Robertson, Kareem Abdul-Jabaar, McGinnis, Elgin Baylor, Billy Cunningham, Cousins, and Lee.
This year, Jokic is averaging a triple double. If he can keep it up for the last few games, he will join Oscar Robertson and Russell Westbrook as the only players who averaged a triple double over a season.
The Nuggets have won 25 straight games when Nikola Jokic has a triple-double. That is the most consecutive team wins when player has a triple-double in NBA history, passing Magic Johnson and the Lakers back in the 80s.
Has Embid, Giannis, Doncic, Tatum, Sabonis, or Lilliard ever done it? Nope. Did Michael Jordan, Lebron James, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Bill Russell, Magic Johnson, Wilt Chamberlain, Larry Bird, Shaquille O’Neal, Tim Duncan, Kobe Bryant, Hakeem Olajuwon, Oscar Robertson, Kevin Durant, Jerry West, Stephen Curry, Karl Malone, Kevin Garnett, Moses Malone, Julius Erving, David Robertson, Dirk Nowitzki, Elgin Baylor, Giannis Antetokounmpo, John Stockton, Isiah Thomas, Rick Berry, Dwyane Wade, or Chris Paul do it? Nope.
The Joker has some of the highest effective shooting percentages from the rim to, and including, the three point line ever seen, and especially for a center. He smokes Embed and Giannis. Jocic leads the league in TS and PER. The highest PER ever was Chamberlin’s at 32.08 back in the 1960/61 season. In the 2020/21 season, the Joker smashed it at 32.85. For a career, the Joker’s 27.55 is in between #1’s Michael Jordan’s 27.91 and #3’s LeBron James, at 27.27. Embed? He’s at 27.5. Giannis? He’s at 24.79.
The Joker has the highest BPM, just edging out Jordan, and notably higher than LeBron James and Magic Johnson. Nobody else in the history of the league is even close.

The Greek God for MVP
Jokic has 5 more assist = 10 points. So all three players contribute about the same amount of points to their team.
👑Giannis
Stats for those are all about the same. Winning matters. Best record in the NBA is the tie breaker. Giannis!!! Plain and simple.
Anybody can make triple double 😄😄😄

The Joker is the MVP. Period.
