This Up Here GIF by Chord Overstreet


Luka is a triple double machine.
Cool, and yet between the 2 Jokic has him beat by 4 this season and for double-doubles Jokic has hi
beat by 16. Jokic is averaging a double-double on the season, Luca is not.

Not saying he isn’t a top 5 player in this league. He’s just not better than Jokic nor the MVP.

Yeah, we don’t have to shit on one guy to elevate the other.

Luka is damn near averaging a triple double for the year.

But Jokic has great numbers and his team has a better record.

Joker is the MVP.

I was talking in comparison to Joker as that’s who his MVP potential was being compared to. I was pointing out how Jokic clears him on the Offensive and Defensive side of the ball unless you are strictly talking about points only.

Joker 26.1 ppg 12.6 rpg 8.9 apg

Luka 33.8 ppg 9.1 rpg 9.8 apg

Luka scores 7 points more per game, averages 1 more assist per game and considering that Luka is a guard, rebounds could be considered almost a wash, but I'd still give Joker the edge there.

I'll give you that Joker gets a significant edge on defense...

but where does Joker "clear him" anywhere else?

I mean, obviously, you wanna finish #1 and have him court until the finals.

But, with the Pels and Kangz limping towards the finish line, I would rather the Thunder finish 3rd than 2nd.

On the other hand, it’s better to avoid a Denver Matchup until the WCF.

So, pick your poison.

On paper, it’s Luka.

Eye test, it’s Joker.

……for now.

A lot of wasted time and energy spent here discussing who gets the Asterisk MVP. Everybody knows this year’s winner is only winning because Kuminga jumped on the knee of the Real MVP.

I just have a feeling the Thunder are just going to just play it out and whatever happens happens. As long as the top 3 stay tight though there are options I guess.
