More Joker: Ringer’s Devine Makes Case For Jokic’s MVP Candidacy In A Race Dominated By Big Men
Joel Embiid. LeBron James. Giannis. Nikola Jokic. The MVP race, at the first turn of this shortened NBA season, is all about the big men.
The Ringer’s Dan Devine is feeling mile high:
Show him help in the post, and watch him drop the ball off to a cutter for a layup. Bring a double from the baseline, and watch as he slings a crosscourt dart for a wide-open 3. Play him straight up and a step off, and he dots your eye with the jumper. Play him one-on-one and press him tightly, and he backs you into the charge circle before softly dropping a hook in over your head. As you call timeout, he quietly rumbles back to his bench, and you quietly curse whichever god you pray to, searching for the answer that continues to elude you.
Nobody has solved Jokic yet this season. The Nuggets as a team got out of the blocks slowly, dropping four of their first five games in a disappointing start after making the Western Conference finals last season. (Maybe we should’ve expected some stumbling out of the gate for a team that lost rotation players Jerami Grant, Mason Plumlee, and Torrey Craig in free agency.) But in contrast to past seasons when Jokic has sputtered in the early going, the Serbian giant has lived up to his superstar billing from 2020-21’s opening tip.
Jokic’s stat line this season is the stuff of Bill Walton’s most beautiful dark twisted fantasies. (Which, by the way: Can we make that a podcast?) He’s averaging 25.2 points, 11.8 rebounds, 8.9 assists, and 1.8 steals in 35.5 minutes per game—all career highs, and numbers only Fully Unleashed Post-KD Russell Westbrook has ever reached. He’s shot 50 percent or higher in 15 of his 18 appearances and dished 10 or more assists in nine of them.
Other gold nuggets from Devine:
No “traditional” big has won the MVP since Shaq in 2000
Jokic rebounds 11 percent of Denver’s misses, and averages nearly five points per game on second-chance shots
Jokic is fourth in the league in points in the paint (behind Zion, Andre Drummond, and Giannis)
His true shooting percentage is .644 (true shooting percentage is “True shooting percentage is a measure of shooting efficiency that takes into account field goals, 3-point field goals, and free throws,“ according to Basketball Reference).
Only Luka Doncic has created more points this season — he currently has more assists per game, and a higher percentage of assists of the team’s overall scoring, than any center in history.
Jokic is more fundamental than flashy, and perhaps because he plays in the Mountain Time Zone and looks like the evolutionary version of Bobby Hill, he inspires less breathless coverage than “He’s finally figuring it out” Embiid or “He’s still doing at at this age!” LeBron or “Greatest Achilles comeback ever!” Durant. And all of that may be right. Here in the Big Man Camp, though, we’re just happy to see the Goliaths get some respect.
There are two kinds of people in the world, Notre Dame lovers and Notre Dame haters. And, quite frankly, they’re both a pain in the ass.

Throw Back Thursday to Art-in-Buildings' 2011 exhibition, Dan Devine: Inside Out!
How to Turn Your Car Inside Out by Dan Devine Assemble your tools in an orderly fashion near your car. Be sure to have a pile of clean rags at your disposal. Start by removing the battery to inactivate all systems. Remove all fluids. Use your Saws-All with a fine toothed metal blade. There are other tools you can use in addition, such as an angle- grinder with cut—off blade, snips hammer and chisel, and a cutting torch, but you will find the Saws-All can perform almost all the procedures. Now you just cut your car apart. Some may want to first mark their intended cuts beforehand and others will stat right in, relying on intuition. I prefer the spontaneous approach. Look out for falling or sharp objects. Now that you have cut your car into pieces, carefully lay them out in a large open space with room for walking between. Take each individual piece and clean it. This producer must be done with great care so you will gain a fuller understanding of where the pieces came from and where you will put them upon re-assembly. After you have cleaned all the parts you can start the long process of turning your car inside-out. Remember the insides of objects are smaller than the outsides. The re-assembly will require some cutting, bending, and welding. Use our own judgment in shaping your inside-out car. You will need to make new upholstery and carpets. A hint for operating your inside-out car: Bear in mind that every operation produces a reversed effect. You must turn left to go right, forward is backward.
“We’re doing a lot of running,” Bulls guard Ryan Arcidiacono told reporters after last Thursday’s practice. “We’ve really gotten after each other. We’ve really played hard together, worked on the little things. We’re doing a lot of running, though. We’re getting up and down the floor. I can’t emphasize enough: We’re doing a lot of running.”
The new Chicago Bulls coach is apparently so old school that you may mistake him for that high school gym teacher you couldn’t fucking stand.
