No. It is just a waste of time to do something more benefical. He wont leave Jokic and if he would he is a Nr.2 guy that is injured very often. And his next contract will be Big.

Wishful thinking.
Jamal has a good thing going for him right now, playing with one of the best (if not the best) players in the world

To be fair - Jamal is a much better fit with Scottie.

Lets hope they win again this year and Jamal feels like a patriot and comes home. He does it without any backlash because he just won back to back championships.

Somewhat surprised we were capable of opening the box and getting the checkers pieces out to use.

If he's the clutch 2nd fiddle to many championships, he might Billups his way into the HOF.

I would argue the opposite. He is one of the more clutch players in the league. 3 level scorer. Can run the point. Big games in the playoffs. Won a championship.
Has never made an allstar team. He is underrated for sure.
He's one of the few guys in the league whose numbers get better in the playoffs.
This year is a down year for his playoff stats, but he hit two game winners, the last one on a hobbled leg. Yammed on Bron too.
He definitely looks better playing off of Jokic, as almost all players do. But he's a very good #2 in his own right. Underrated insofar as he's got 0 ASG and isn't considered a superstar. But I'd rather have a "star" guy that elevates in the biggest moments, vs a "superstar" guy that disappears when the team needs him (See: Leafs, Maple).

Just gotta hope that OKC doesn't win a championship like Lebron's initial stint with the Cavs.

SGA ain't leaving there. OKC has dynastic potential (again). Also they're still incredibly young and still have tons of assets to move. SGA gonna be there for a long while.

"Star" players who are renown for producing in the playoffs > Fake star players who don't.

I believe that is only on the offensive side that you are referring to. Siakam is a better fit on the defensive side, and we are clearly lacked size up front.

In 2027 - when RJ and Poeltl coincidentally come off the books.
I've said this many times before, but it's telling that Masai refused to give Pascal more than three years on a max extension.

I can't believe I just read a post claiming Murray is overrated. Dear God.

Pascal hasn't played defence since 2019. Keep up!
