Yes, the Nikon 200mm f2 VR is an impressive lens. No, its bokeh is not creamy at all.

I don't see an indication from those samples indicating that the IS lens is "better" here.
The VR shot with the poles will look nervous on most lenses except the Sony STF maybe - this is too much of a stress for a conventional lens.
The shown Canon samples are far simpler scenes - closer main objects thus more blur. No surprises that they appear to be "better" but they're just different.
