I still think Jordan's the best, but I wanted to see if I could make a case for Jokic and it was easier than I expected.
I searched from another metric of Average points per game which is 30.1 for Jordan against Jokic's 9.9.
It's like comparing Sir Donald Bradman to Sachin Tendulkar in Cricket, while both are considered great but Average runs per match for Bradman are +99 while Sachin only scored 53.8 runs per match. Both are considered great though.

Those aren't the right numbers. Jokic is averaging 30 points per game this season. 9.9 is his assists average.

You may be correct I don't disagree I just searched it superficially.
Any site where we can compare basketball stats?

APG stands for assists per game

Yes, but he had a slower start to his career, whereas Jordan was awesome right from the beginning. Over the past five seasons, he's averaging almost 27 points per game.

Looking at the stats above both looking great to me on equal counts. But Jokic is still playing so he may well be ahead of Jordan.
