Jokic makes a case to enter the discussion for the GOAT

We are witnessing something historic, and many are still unaware of the impact of what Nikola Jokic is doing. The consistency and naturalness with which the Serbian dominates the NBA have normalized a level of play inconceivable for any other mortal. Averaging a triple-double, he dominated the Hawks last night, and many are already considering him a candidate for the GOAT.

The ease with which he accomplishes everything may detract from Nikola Jokic when evaluating his feats. He is a player unique in his kind, a misunderstood genius whom NBA statistics do not quite do justice to, despite him having one of the best seasons ever. On the path to averaging a triple-double, what's most astonishing is his consistency at the top and how he controls the game.

- Jokic's numbers and sense of superiority are unheard of, but he needs to win more rings.

Against the Atlanta Hawks, he showcased once again with 48 points, 14 rebounds, 8 assists, and 3 steals. He was clearly the driving force of a Denver Nuggets team that falls far short of their star, a circumstance that could hinder Nikola Jokic from being seen as the GOAT. To debate that imaginary and recurring award against men like Jordan or LeBron, the Serbian would need to collect several more rings, something currently seeming unlikely. In the meantime, let's enjoy his talent every night.
