He may have more value than JV, but I think we have to see if he makes the playoffs and how he performs there. If Jokic's limitations defensively are too great, it could make it hard to win playoff series with him on the court.
In the end you may be better off with an improving two-way player like JV who is a 2nd/3rd option over a guy like Jokic who may always be better offensively as a 1 A/B, but really difficult to hide defensively. Jokic would have to show he can completely dominate the flow of a playoff series just on the offensive end. The list of players who do that with subpar D is basically Harden and Curry. It is easier to get away with as a small player though.

I agree, I imagine they want a player in his prime. Demar + Siakam might be the best offer they get for short term success, doubt its better than what those other teams offer though.

Plus if they can net an Ingram or Jaylen Brown plus a pick or two they get a pretty decent young core, don't think thats a decent playoff team anytime soon though.

Raptors have some prospects but no expiring contracts. So if the Spurs want to shed salary and go younger we might be a hard team to trade with. We'd have to find a team willing to take DeMar for an expiring contract and use that in our negotiations. Our 2019 pick looks like it'll be in the high 20's so not much value there. Our prospects are okay but not elite. Can't compare to Boston's or Philliy's or even LA's probably.
I'm still hoping and praying we get Kawhi somehow. Instant contender in the East with him around (assuming he actually suits up).
