NIHOF NBA CUP Standings: Update 6, Jan 8

If you are a regular visitor at Notinhalloffame.com, you know that we created the Notinhalloffame NBA Cup, where in every regular season game, we award points (5-4-3-2-1) to the top five performers.  This is the fourth year that we have done this, and Denver’s Nikola Jokic winning the first two, and Joel Embiid of the Philadelphia 76ers winning last year. To keep everyone regularly in the loop this time, we have decided to give regular updates, starting at Thanksgiving.  We will update this every Monday. Here is the current top ten: 1. Nikola Jokic, Denver Nuggets, 146 Cup Points, 37 Games, 3.95 Cup Points per Game, 25.5, PPG, 11.8 RPG, 9.2 APG, 1.2 SPG, 0.9 BPG, 31.3 PER, 7.8 WS.  Last Week, #1. Clinging to the top is Nikola Jokic, who last year became an NBA Champion and Finals MVP.  At present, the Joker is leading the NBA in Defensive Rebounds (332), Win Shares (7.8), Offensive Win Shares (5.6) Box Plus/Minus (13.9), VORP (5.0) and Triple Doubles (11).  He is also second in PER (31.2), third in Assists per Game (9.2), fourth in Rebounds per Game (11.8).  Jokic also was named the November Player of the Month, which is his seventh overall.  Based on the last two weeks, we would not be surprised if the Joker falls off the top when we do this again next week. 2. Giannis Antetokounmpo, Milwaukee Bucks, 142 Cup Points:  35 Games, 4.06 Cup Points per Game, 31.6 PPG, 11.5 RPG, 5.7 APG, 1.3 SPG, 1.2 BPG, 30.1 PER, 6.3 WS.  Last Week, #2. The two-time MVP has never had a better supporting cast than he does now, and he is responding by doing what he always does: dominate.  Antetokounmpo, however has slightly less metrics than previous years, but the arrival of Damian Lillard means he does not have to always carry the load.  He is third in Points per Game (31.8), sixth in Rebounds per Game (11.6), and is the league-leader in Field Goals (410).  Recently, Giannis won his tenth Player of the Month Award and is the biggest threat to overtake the Joker for the top spot since we started promoting this season’s Cup Standings. 3. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Oklahoma City Thunder, 140 Cup Points:  33 Games, 4.24 Cup Points Per Game, 31.5 PPG, 6.0 RPG, 6.4 APG, 2.4 SPG, 0.7 BPG, 31.1 PER, 7.2 WS.  Last Week #3. Gilgeous-Alexander broke through to the…
