    It's either Luka or Jokic should be MVP
    JOKIĆ OFFICIALLY AVERAGES A TRIPLE-DOUBLE IN THE 2025-26 SEASON

    With 12 assists in tonight's victory, Nikola Jokić has now officially averaged a triple-double on the season. He joins Russell Westbrook as the only players in NBA HISTORY to average a triple-double in back-to-back seasons!
    but no way freaking FT merchant

    Jokic is ridiculous

    Just kind of bothers me that a guy like Lebron is still this good at this age (and maybe even looking at last year where he more of a primary option) - with 3 point shooting, spacing, and increased pace - hard to see how Lebron Miami type wouldn't have put up bonker numbers in this era. this of course applies to other great players who got stuck in the Riley Knicks aftermath era

    Speaking of "Lean Mean Slovenian Scoring Machine" .... is IS looking even a bit leaner these days and so is LeBron, like maybe around 10lbs? In any event these are 2 alpha superstars are feeding off each other now and ready to kick some a** in the playoffs health willing.

    I agree with you. Jokic is just incredible. You could give him MVP every year. Luka and the Joker top my list followed by Wemby. SGA is a great player but MVP? I don’t see why. He scores but not on a level like Luka and his assist numbers are pedestrian for a point guard (18th in NBA) while Joker is number one and Luka 4. And OKC is stacked as a team, to me that takes away from his importance.
