DAL OFFSEASON: Trade & FA | Mavs "mostly done...but you never know."

[HanspardsShowerVoice]

As a short-term fix, Millsap is as good as it gets to play PF for us. I actually like him a LOT next to KP.

Yeah,  this article is a year old, but it goes into detail about what a good fit he is with Joker...

Even more striking were his on/off numbers with Jokic in particular. When Denver’s all-star center was on the court without Millsap, the Nuggets only outscored opponents by 1.1 points per 100 possessions. When Millsap was on the court without Jokic, Denver’s defense was best in the league by a wide margin, and its overall point differential stayed above +8. To boot, Millsap finished 16th in Real Plus-Minus this season, sandwiched between Chris Paul and Kyrie Irving. (Last year he was 72nd, and in his final season with the Atlanta Hawks, he ranked 14th.)

Defensively, he’s smart, nimble, and brick solid. Test Millsap head on and there’s a good chance you will lose. He’s also one of the reasons the Nuggets are so comfortable with their aggressive pick-and-roll scheme, with the lumbering Jokic dancing on the perimeter. Even though Millsap is undersized as a rim protector, he knows when to be in the paint and when to scurry back out to the perimeter. He is adept at risk mitigation in physical form.

Things must have been more fun when Pants DJ was around.

I have a feeling this is really funny, but I'm sorry, I'm not familiar with the reference.
