Do you think the title is true or false? In my opinion, I think Jokic clears Wilt Chamberlain offensively. Wilt is probably the better scorer due to the records but skill wise, Jokic clears him via the eye test with his insane skill gap and that compensates for Wilt’s athleticism gap. Nothing more to say on playmaking because Jokic is easily the greatest playmaking big of all time.
Does Jokic’s efficiency and skill gap offset Wilt’s record breaking numbers and athleticism or do you think Wilt is just better offensively?

Wilt is one of the only all-time greats who can legitimately be accused of statpadding for himself rather than playing for the team(many of his peers agree as well)
That alone knocks him down a tier or two IMO
I agree with u/MrAppleSpoink. It’s hard to make a one for one comparison. Wilt did basically change the game of basketball in ways very very few players can say they are responsible for. He, MJ, Steph. Bron broke teams with his dominance.
Jokic is absolutely placing himself amongst those giants but it is a completely different game.
