I'm not for trading Kleber, and surprisingly (at least for me), even DP too.
You add to both rather than replace.
I'm not a big fan of Gobert now (I was before last season's playoffs), so I am not thrilled with trading for him. But if the cost is Bertans+THJ+a pick? No questions asked, that's a deal I would take.
Mavs need to add a big, my preference still is trading THJ and somehow end up with Holmes or Turner (JC, PJ Wash and even Wood doesn't seem realistic to me).
But if the Mavs can't get a quality big, I' settle for pick swaps:
Muscala + 34 for either Brown or Burke + 26
Naz Reid + 40 for either Brown or Burke + 26
Jalen McDaniels + 40 for either Brown or Burke + 26
Jaxson Hayes + 47 for either Brown or Burke + 26
Olynk + 46 for Bertans + 26 (if Detroit bites, then why not? they have no one to pay for anyway and 20 spots is a big jump).
