I thought you guys were talking about Aaron Gordon and got confused. Eric Gordon is a negative asset and serves little purpose here. THJ already fills his role and is younger and might come cheaper; if you're not a THJ guy, you shouldn't be an Eric Gordon guy either, imo.
I honestly think most of the pieces are in place right now, and a trade is not needed unless it's for an obvious upgrade. Once the team is at full strength, the Mavs could be an elite team this year but we will see how the rotation shakes out.
Personally, I think the starters going forward should be Brunson, JRich, Luka, Kleber/DFS, and KP. Then the bench as Burke, THJ, Green, DFS/Kleber, WCS and some Iwundu/Bey mixed in there. Erase Powell's and Johnson's minutes. Hand Boban and Terry the pom-pom's.
Lets see how far this group goes then make the necessary adjustments next offseason. So far, I am loving the defensive mentality, easily the best defensive effort from a Maverick team since Justin Anderson replaced Parsons in the starting lineup for 10 games or so.
