Just out of curiosity, I looked up other top seasons to compare to Jokic.
Jokic season-to-date he has 9.7 Win Shares. Some other seasons ....
Giannis last year
29.5 pts 13.6 rebs 5.6 asts, 11.1 Win Shares, 31.9 PER ...and also #1 Defender in the NBA (DPOY)
Wilt in 62-63
50.4 pts 25.7 rebs 2.4 asts, 23.1 Win Shares. 31.8 PER
Jordan in 87-88
35.0 pts 5.5 rebs 5.9 asts, 21.2 Win Shares, 31.7 PER ...and also #1 Defender in the NBA (DPOY)
Also noteworthy is Olajuwon's 93-94 season in which he won MVP, DPOY, Finals MVP, and a Title. No other player has ever had a year of offensive, defensive, and team dominance like that.*
*To be fair, the fact that DPOY only began in 1982 and Finals MVP in 1969 is all that kept players like Mikan, Russell, Wilt, and Kareem from sweeping those honors in a year.
