Nikola Jokic's PER this season is by far the best all time and he is leading nearly every advanced stat in the league.

In all the debate about the MVP it's really hard for me to ignore just how absurd the output of this man is. He is putting up prime shaq numbers in terms of scoring and efficiency but has a killer outside shot, one of the best rebounders in the league and is the best passer in the league. He is also a smart defender who can get physical and make impact plays.

This man is stuffing the stats sheet every night on God like efficiency. It's interesting to go down the list of PER all time and see Chamberlain, Jordan with most of the best seasons but also Giannis and Jokic proving they are all time greats.

The Nuggets record will work against him but it's really hard to make an argument why he isn't the most valuable player.
