Part 4/5:

Jokic's impact on the game extends far beyond the traditional box score. He currently leads the league by a "laughable margin" in every single key advanced metric, including VORP, BPM, PER, and Win Shares. This marks the fifth consecutive season that Jokic has led the league in these metrics, which were once used to "pleasure themselves" while drooling over LeBron James.

Furthermore, Jokic's on-off metrics are simply staggering. His on-off of +43.7 points per 100 possessions is pacing to shatter Kobe Bryant's record mark for this century of +19.2 in 2006. To put this in context, Anthony Davis is at +3.4, Jayson Tatum is at +6.10, Luka Doncic is at +9.4, and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is at +13.3 – all impressive numbers, but dwarfed by Jokic's historic impact.

A Season for the Ages
