I think Utah will never be a contender as long as Mitchell is their only offensive star - he's not quite good enough.
I think KP/Luka isn't a great fit, for whatever reason, and adding Gobert, unquestionably one of the three best defensive players in the league, to the defensive system already being built here, might put the Mavericks in the league's top 5.
I think there is enough of a history there for us to say they aren't just "rumors."
What if UTA comes to you and says:
We want KP + JB (or DFS) for Gobert?
How do you respond? Would you be willing to do one of those? Any counter-offers?
