Jokic will be 28 when his current contract runs out. If Jokic were to explore free agency it would be THEN. No way the Mavs are parting with Luka before the end of his contract in 5 years. At that point Jokic is in his thirties and things will be very different.
I don't think there is much of a chance (like 1%), but I think Jokic wanting to come to DAL is WAY, WAY higher than Luka ending up on DEN.
Did you just ignore the whole 2nd part of my post? Our front office is headed by a guy who has never run or even been involved in a front office job and handed a messy situation to boot. What do we base our irrational optimism on?
As for Luka leaving, contracts mean nothing these days. If Luka comes out tomorrow and says he wants to leave, the Mavs have no choice but to start exploring options immediately . Do I think they will trade him to Denver in that scenario. No. All I am saying is however slim those chances, it still has a higher probability right now than this poorly run franchise has to entice Jokic.
