2778897, lol I was about to say, Jokic is the best offensive player in the NBA.

And it's not especially close. He's on his third year running leading the NBA in PER, leading the NBA in offensive win shares. He's also led the league the last two seasons in offensive plus-minus, and he's in third this season, neck and neck with Steph and Luka-- and the fourth place guy is well behind the three of them.

Jokic is an offensive cheat code the likes of which we've rarely seen in our lifetimes. He's second all-time in PER behind Jordan. All time! He leads all active players in career win shares per 48. Of active players, he's in the top 20 for career points per game, rebounds per game, and assists per game... all while having a top 5 true shooting percentage. There's basically no limit to what he can do in a half court setting-- he's a fucking wizard.
