在推文中有不少人其實有提及Jokic的一些統合性的進階數據其實沒有想像中差
同為ESPN的Zach Lowe就提過了一個可能性(約莫一週前)

It seems like no other MVP candidate has been put under a microscope much
like Nikola Jokic has been in recent weeks. Some pundits have even wondered
whether race plays a huge part in the Denver Nuggets star’s MVP candidacy.
Amid all the noise, however, there are some legitimate concerns regarding the
merits of making Jokic only the fourth player in NBA history to win three
straight MVP awards.
其他NBA MVP候選人都沒有像這幾週的Nikola Jokic這樣被放到顯微鏡下檢視。有些人甚至
認為種族在Jokic的MVP候選資格上佔有不小的地位。排除這些雜音,Jokic是否能成為NBA
歷史上第四位MVP三連霸的球員的確有不小的疑慮。
In particular, some analysts are concerned with Jokic’s defense. As much as
the Nuggets star is able to maximize his god-given basketball IQ and quick
hands on that end of the court, his athletic limitations puts a cap on just
how much of an impact he can make on the defensive end.
更具體一點來說,有些分析師對於Jokic的防守有疑慮。這名丹佛金塊的球星最大化了與生
俱來的籃球智商與快手在進攻端發揮影響力,他的體能限制了他在防守端的影響力。
In fact, Nikola Jokic is trying to compensate for some of his defensive
limitations by masquerading as a football player, which, as ESPN’s Zach Lowe
pointed out, is such a defensive cop-out.
“Jokic has 45 kicked ball violations this year. [Number two] has 17. It’s
his way of saying, ‘I just don’t feel like playing defense.’ It’s smart,
but we shouldn’t allow guys to karate kick the ball,” Lowe said in the
March 13 episode of his podcast, the Lowe Post.
It’s difficult to rag too much of Nikola Jokic’s decision to game the
system. As the old adage goes, “don’t hate the player, hate the game.”
Thus, the Nuggets big man shouldn’t catch too much flak for playing within
the rules and, in turn, conserving some energy to impact the game in some
other way.
事實上,Nikola Jokic嘗試要彌補他在防守端的缺陷。而它採用的方式就是
