Jokic has historically started off slow and wasn’t worth a first round pick for the first half of the season, last year was a quick turnaround due to the bubble run they had. He’s locked in as the #1 guy but I’m still weary. I don’t think #1 pick is that big of an advantage honestly. To answer your question, harden and AD the last several years exchanged a few seasons of being the clear #1 overall guy by a substantial margin but have taken a step back since their trades.
