- Ja Morant has been on an absolute tear to start this season, getting his team to a 4-1 record, and himself a first place spot on NBA.com’s first official MVP ladder. But just how good is he right now? And can he actually win an NBA MVP?

The craziest thing is that his shooting is on the rise. Obviously the 56% mark he's hitting is unsustainable, but if Ja is now an above average 3pt shooter, he's about as close as a player gets to being unguardable.
For real! Especially because most of these are pull-up, self-created 3s. Even 35-36% on those earns the defense's respect, and then you're more vulnerable to his slashing.
Excellent video. Ja is the best show in the league. The slowed down hang time moves are unbelievable.
Glad you enjoyed!
i love these types of videos especially about morant
how do you determine if someone is the best we've ever seen for example "best guard finisher" what criteria leads you to that conclusion when factoring era and rules? Also, what is your criteria for best player in the world? Lastly, awesome vid!
That's mostly just me ballparking it as best I can. Looking at things like volume and efficiency at the rim, along with the versatility and difficulty on those shots.
My criteria for best player in the world is the one who I feel gives you the best shot at winning a championship (funny right?)... meaning I'll estimate the value they provide on offense and defense, along with how they fit next to other types of talent to evaluate just how much "championship equity" I believe they hold.
@@HoopVenueInteresting. So what sort of skills do you believe hold the most value in having the highest "championship equity"?
Where would you rank him as an all-time finisher?
1of1 talent man
If Ja puts this suspension to good use in the lab, he could come back better than he usually does season by season, which would be insane. With injuries to a minimum and more versatile coaching, this could be a championship season.
crazy how you didnt even mention his crazy chasedown blocks
Where do you think he will rank offensively by end of year?
I'm waiting to see how his shooting actually looks with a large sample, but for me he'll probably land just below Trae/Dame, heading the next tier of players. That puts him 8th? I could probably see a #6 case, although I wouldn't go there just yet.
I just love how everyone just ignores SGA
His pick and roll with adams was very deadly offensively but adams need to fix his defensive prowess
Hey Hoop Venue if SGA was on a roster comparable to Ja Morant's do u think he would be looked at in a similar light as a top 10-15 player?
I don't think so, just because I don't think he's on the same level. I do agree that SGA's situation leads to him being extremely underrated though, on a playoff team he's probably getting All-NBA buzz.
@@HoopVenue Hmm why do u think they aren't on a similar level?
@@DeeJay_VII not at all ja’s consistent rim pressure is so much more and his play making is so much higher then sga I’m a fan of both and I can see ja is better not by a lot but still better
@@TrenchmadeSeph Ja is a better playmaker but SGA has zero spacing on his roster so it's way more difficult for him to score as effectively at the rim the way Ja does but despite that he gets to the rim just as often as be does
@@DeeJay_VII ja has proven is rookie season to be a better passer and that’s not even a debate and Yeahh the team has worse spacing but that’s still not an excuse
Where do you rank Ja amongst other pg’s? Some say he’s Top 5 while others say he’s top 6 or at worse 8th
If I were to write out a point guards list Ja would land as my #4, with a range of about 3-6.
Who’s a better scorer all time LeBron or kd? And what’s your reasoning in your opinion?
Who’s better offensively in your opinion Ja or Kyrie ? And why
At this point I'm going with Ja because I think at that level, he just brings so much more as a #1, or the driving force of a strong offense. With that being said though, if I already have a mega playmaker or elite creator, Kyrie as a #2 creates a more limitless ceiling, so in that case I prefer him.
@@HoopVenue in your opinion why isn’t Kyrie more effective as a #1 offensive player what’s holding him back as a primary?
W 🔥
Appreciate it!
Your always making awesome videos keep up the good work 😎
Hisself
the only thing stopping him rigth now is his own team
Ja to me is what i expect John Wall would be with no injuries.
Do you think he is better than Lillard and Trae overall or no?
Hmmm I'll wait for a larger sample of both of them playing this season to compare him to Dame, but I do prefer him to Trae ever so slightly.
yeah okay buddy sure 😒
He gets away with traveling/double dribbling/carrying more than any other player in the nba. That’s why he is so unstoppable.
Keep crying 🤣
You didn't mention that kawhi blew the 3-1 lead
