I think you’re being slightly hyperbolic

He may not end up being better than Wade or Kobe, but stylistically, he more closely resembles Jordan than those 2.

Jokic is the best player in the NBA right now, and it's honestly not even close. The average fan doesn't even realize what they're witnessing.

Seems like a bit of recency bias. The surrounding cast of KAT, Gobert and Reid cause a lot of issues for defenses and don't allow as much focus just on Ant.

Brunson has way less offensive threats on the floor with him and I'd say SGA often gets more defensive attention also. Those are just a couple examples at the guard spots that are still in the playoffs.

He has yet to produce Derrick rose accolades. However he’s a baller. Halliburton was the best player in the league first half of the season according to the buzz.

I still think Jokic is best. But there's so many elite #1 guys in the NBA right now.

Jokic, Luka, Giannis, SGA, Ant. On any given night these guys will all look like the best player in the league. Then you have guys like Embiid, Brunson, and Tatum, who are all in that 2nd tier of elite players.

As a diehard wolves fan this is a crazy take

Ant is top 10 at this point. Excellent closer and has potential to be mvp caliber but he is not currently as good as jokic, doncic or Giannis

I think he’s the future of the nba given his trajectory and age, but he’s still young and inconsistent and makes dumb plays here and there

Though he’s be on one so far in these playoffs

Edit: all that being said, I’d take him over any other player in the nba right now, but that’s my biased take

He’s the best two way guard and that’s not close.

I do think his trajectory is to become the best player in the NBA tho.

When healthy, which doesn’t happen much, Embid is 1a and Joker is 1b. But since Embid is often injured, I think it’s Joker, Ant Man, and Embid in that order.

right now its jokic until jokic is eliminated.

i expect we will see mavs vs wolves in the west finals and the winner of that (luka vs ant) should be crowned best player.
