1) I personally don't think that is true. If Gobert gets dealt at any point soon we'll have to see what kind of haul he gets. I don't think the offers will be such that he would literally take "all our assets."
2) The only way Gobert becomes a "negative asset" is if he gets an achilles injury or something. He is an elite defender and has a severely underrated impact on team offense. He is 28. And I believe he will become more valuable once under team control and not now when he is holding UTA hostage over the super max and has the ability to walk soon.
