I could definitely see Gordon being dealt given that they are likely giving Isaac a bunch of money + resign Fournier if they want to keep him? They basically play the same position and Gordon is going to be expiring. It might not happen until the summer though. Lots of teams would be interested but it's hard to gauge exactly what Gordon's value is. For the Mavs it would mean no THJ. I would also think DFS would be one of the assets outgoing. He would be a good 3D player for them. Also Mavs have guys that long-term can replace DFS who's next contract is going to be a lot more than 4 mil.
I think a Powell for Aminu type swap could also make sense as part of that deal since Gordon is effectively replacing Powell.
Resulting lineup would be something like Luka, Rich, Gordon, KP 4-pack. I don't think the Mavs value Gordon more than Powell + retaining THJ on a team-friendly contract so it's probably a no-go.
