Right now the Mavs have 6 guys they want to start in Luka/KP/JRich/THJ/Powell/DFS. To me it would make a lot of sense if we could somehow consolidate THJ and DFS into one player. I wonder if the Bulls would be interested in a THJ+DFS swap for OPJ by the trade deadline.

Love the OPJ idea, but not if it's to play the 3. 

Loads of people will disagree, but to me, that guy is a 4. I would straight up rather just bet on DFS to take another step if we're thinking of OPJ as a 3. 

Now, I have altered my thinking today, in part because of how Richardson has looked, and in part because of the prize coming off the board. I said during the off-season that I wouldn't be in favor of THJ for OPJ under any circumstances. With Richardson here, and my willingness to bet on DFS moving forward, I would now be in favor of consolidating THJ/Powell into OPJ. 

I like Luka/Richardson/DFS/OPJ/KP a lot, and there are others I'd look into for that spot, too. 

I'm ok if the move ends up being THJ/DFS for a 3, too (I think Kleber can be a long term starter here at the 4), but I don't think OPJ is that guy. Just my opinion.
