Super magician Zhan Huang? Jokic 4 advantage rushes the historical triple-double king of the playoffs Tencent netizens are nearly 70% optimistic

On June 4, Beijing time, when Jokic cut a triple-double becomes a simple job like eating, what can stop him from attacking the all-time triple-double king in playoff history? Jokic has already set an all-time record nine triple-doubles in the playoffs this year, and he has already had 15 triple-doubles in his career playoffs to rank third all-time, and is undoubtedly expected to surpass the records of Magic Johnson and James in the future. In this regard, nearly 70% of Tencent News netizens believe that Jokic is expected to be crowned the all-time triple-double king of the playoffs, and less than 40% of voices think that it is extremely difficult. In fact, as things stand, it is really not difficult for Jokic to achieve such a goal, especially since he has a number of advantages and is generally optimistic about the outside world.

1. Jokic has had nine triple-doubles in the playoffs this year and is expected to continue to increase

In the NBA's past playoff history, the record for the most triple-doubles in a single season can be traced back to Chamberlain's 7 times in a single season, and it seems that it is extremely difficult to break such a record? Sorry, it's not difficult to record in front of Jokic, who has already sent out nine assists in the first 16 games of this year's playoffs, breaking Chamberlain's record.

More importantly, Jokic has contributed six triple-doubles in his last seven games, and at one point, he has contributed four consecutive triple-doubles. With Jokic's current form and ability, he is expected to continue to add a triple-double in the playoffs this year, and the Heat don't have much to do to stop that from happening.

2. In peak mode, Jokic smashes a triple-double with almost no difficulty

For Jokic, who is in peak mode at the age of 28, the era of his reign is quietly approaching, and triple-doubles are hardly a difficult thing for him. Jokic contributed 29 triple-doubles in the regular season this season, although there is still a big gap from Wilson's 42 triple-doubles in a single season, but more because Jokic himself does not want to "brush triple-doubles", otherwise he may not be able to achieve 42 triple-doubles in a single season.

Jokic leads the league with 29 triple-doubles in the regular season, 14 huge margins ahead of second-placed Sabonis Jr. As for his career regular season, Jokic has 105 triple-doubles and ranks sixth all-time, just two short of the 107 triple-doubles of James and Kidd in front of him. Further ahead, Wilson has 198 triple-doubles, Robertson has 181 triple-doubles, and Magic Johnson has 139 triple-doubles, Jokic is expected to surpass the Magic next season, and the future is expected to surpass Robertson, and even surpass Wilson to be crowned the all-time triple-double.

Jokic has performed better in the playoffs than in the regular season, with his nine triple-doubles in the playoffs this year, surpassing his previous four playoff trips combined. With Jokic's peak form, it is unstoppable that he will continue to frequently contribute triple-doubles in the future playoffs.

3. In the twilight years, it has become increasingly difficult for James to cut a triple-double in the playoffs

Jokic has a playoff triple-double list behind Magic Johnson with 30 triple-doubles and James with 28 triple-doubles. Since Magic Johnson has been retired for many years, it is theoretically possible for James to surpass Magic Johnson and continue to increase the number of triple-doubles in the playoffs.

It's just that James' last playoff triple-double dates back to the 2020 Finals G6 game, when James contributed 28+14+10 data. Although James contributed a 40+10+9 quasi-triple-double in this year's Western Conference finals G4 and almost contributed a triple-double, it was still a failure. As James gets older, it will become more and more difficult for him to continue to get a triple-double in the playoffs in the future, and it will not be so difficult for Jokic to catch up.

4. It is also very difficult for latecomers to catch up with "overtaking" Jokic

While Jokic is constantly chasing Magic Johnson's playoff triple-double with James, he naturally needs to endure the catch-up of latecomers as well. It's just that among the current players, the playoff triple-double is 34-year-old Wei Shao 12 times, 33-year-old dreams 10 times, 33-year-old Harden 4 times, 34-year-old Griffin 3 times, 26-year-old Simmons 3 times (can he still find himself), 35-year-old Curry 3 times, 38-year-old Paul 3 times, 33-year-old Butler 3 times, 28-year-old alphabet brother, 3 times 24-year-old Doncic 3 times...

It can be seen directly that it is extremely difficult for these players to catch up with Jokic, perhaps the 24-year-old Doncic hopes more, after all, he has not really entered the peak of his career, and he is also an extremely versatile data harvester, and is expected to catch up and sprint for a playoff triple-double in the future.

The 28-year-old Jokic showed everyone that the supercenter of the small-ball era can be incomprehensible, and his dominance in this year's playoffs is also amazing, which makes people expect him to create his own era.
