NBA TRADE TALK: TDL over

[DanSchwartzgan]

I understand this perspective, I really do. You might be right. But, in the meantime? You'd be adding a HUGE defensive difference maker (and someone who'd fit really well with Luka on offense) to an already improving Dallas defense. 

You could argue that a true defensive difference maker could instantly vault this team into the conversation, and two of the three best defensive presences in the league are available right now.

I agree.

One thing to note, the way our defensive rotation works, we don't see KP having to cover the lane and get out to the 3 point line very often.  The rotation to the corner comes from the wing instead (which is why Green and Frank and Bullock are valuable...they do this really well).  I assume we'd do the same thing for Gobert, which neutralizes one of the anti-Gobert arguments (same for Turner BTW).
