NIHOF NBA CUP Standings: Update 7, Jan 17

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 Wednesday. Here is the current top ten: 1. Nikola Jokic, Denver Nuggets, 164 Cup Points, 41 Games, 4.00 Cup Points per Game, 25.5, PPG, 11.9 RPG, 9.1 APG, 1.2 SPG, 0.9 BPG, 31.3 PER, 8.6 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 Win Shares (8.5), Offensive Win Shares (6.1) Box Plus/Minus (14.0), Defensive Box Plus/Minus (4.5), VORP (5.4) and Triple Doubles (11).  He is also third in PER (31.2), third in Assists per Game (9.1), fifth in Rebounds per Game (11.9).  Jokic also was named the November Player of the Month, which is his seventh overall.  Based on the last three weeks, we would not be surprised if the Joker falls off the top when we do this again, and for a brief time, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander of OKC was at the top spot. 2. (TIE) Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Oklahoma City Thunder, 160 Cup Points:  39 Games, 4.10 Cup Points Per Game, 31.0 PPG, 5.7 RPG, 6.3 APG, 2.3 SPG, 0.8 BPG, 30.7 PER, 8.4 WS.  Last Week #3. Gilgeous-Alexander broke through to the upper-tier last season, and he is proving that this was no fluke.  He is leading the NBA in Steals per Game (2.3), is second in Win Shares (8.4) and VORP (3.6), third in PER (30.7), and Box Plus/Minus (10.0) and is fourth in Points per Game (31.0).  The Canadian is now an MVP contender, and could join Steve Nash in that exclusive club.  Even if he doesn’t this year, SGA added his first Player of the Month Award in December. 2 (TIE). Giannis Antetokounmpo, Milwaukee Bucks, 159 Cup Points:  39 Games, 4.08 Cup Points per Game, 31.3 PPG, 11.4 RPG, 5.9 APG, 1.3 SPG, 1.1 BPG, 29.6 PER, 6.38WS.  Last Week, #2. The two-time MVP has never had a better supporting…
