Gordon is not a 3&D player like some have said. He's shooting 30.2% on the year and 31.9% for his career from 3. He's a athletic chucker. Also we can package our #1 and the GSW #2 to move into the teens. I would rather have THJ and a pick in the teens than Gordon and no pick. I don't see how that's so outlandish. I like Gordon as a player and I think he has a lot of upside still, but I think he's being over valued as far as trade value.(02-07-2020, 04:25 PM)BigDirk41 Wrote: I wouldn't even considering giving up our #1 for Gordon. I'd be hesitant to trade THJ for him. Pass for me. I'd like Gordon, but he's had a bad year and is at a all time low in value imo.
Goodness gracious, some folks just hate the idea of adding a 3rd-or-4th-best-player-on-a-contending-team. Wouldn't consider giving up our #1 - #20 in a weak draft - for Gordon? What planet are we living on?
At the beginning of the year I would be 100% on board with this trade, but THJ has completely changed my opinion of him. We can't afford to lose our starting 2 guard that's shooting 39.5% from 3 this year and replace him with a guy that can't shoot.
I would trade our #1 for him, but not with THJ attached.
