Its funny, people argue that Jokic is the MVP, when the Nuggets kinda have a poor season, without major injury or Covid related problems. Imagine the Nuggets with a couple of Covid cases on top. The Nuggets doesn't even have a much better season than the Mavs, if you consider circumstances around the team.
Doncic: 29.1 / 8.6 / 9.4 / 1.0 / 0.7 -- .586 TS% / 26.8 PER / 7.8 BPM / 2.4 VORP
Curry: 30.0 / 5.3 / 6.0 / 1.2 / 0.1 -- .661 TS% / 25.6 PER / 7.6 BPM / 2.4 VORP
Lillard: 29.8 / 4.4 / 7.7 / 1.1 / 0.3 -- .625 TS% / 27.1 PER / 6.3 BPM / 2.1 VORP
- +10.0 is an all-time season (think peak Jordan or LeBron)
- +8.0 is an MVP season (think peak Dirk or peak Shaq)
- +6.0 is an all-NBA season
- +4.0 is in all-star consideration
- +2.0 is a good starter
- +0.0 is a decent starter or solid 6th man
- -2.0 is a bench player (this is also defined as "replacement level")
- Below -2.0 are many end-of-bench players
Luka literally has the same advanced stats as Curry, why people ain't discussing Curry <-> Lillard? Curry doesn't have a better season than Luka either. Warrriors have the same amount of losses right now. Would the media discussing it, if the Mavs would be the 8th seed right now?
I agree plus I also don't consider Doncic to be a guard but that's another discussion.
