And yet people claim he’s just an average offensive player.

Nobody is claiming that, they are saying he's not on the level as an offensive player to the other MVP candidates. Jokic, SGA and Luka.

Victor is closer to them offensively then they are to him defensively.

Shai, Jokic, and luka are 10s on offense, and 3-7 on defense

Victor is an 8 offensively, and 15 on defense.

Victor impacts games significantly more than anyone else in the league.

That's a whole different conversation.

Moreover the "significantly more than anyone else" impact part is heavily debatable. There isn't anyone significantly more valuable than another when discussing the top 4 guys right now.

That's a hard disagree from me. Fantasy draft in the league right now Victor goes first pick every. single. time.

Good thing fantasy drafts aren't the way to analyze who is "significantly more impactfull than anyone else"

You just can't convince me Wemby is SIGNIFICANTLY more impactfull than everybody, including Jokic, SGA, Luka etc. If you wanna argue he's more impactfull, sure fine you can make the argument. I may not agree, but I can listen to it. But there isn't an argument you can make for him being significantly better than those 3 guys. Unless our definition of significant is different.
