EXTENSION: Gobert signs 5yr/$205M w/ UTA | DAL "significant interest" if available

Are you really that confident that if RC was given this choice to have on his team...

1) Dwight Powell

OR

2) Rudy Gobert

...he would choose Dwight?


He LOVES Dwight, but I would be stunned and in complete shock if he were to pass on such a talent upgrade to stick with Dwight.


P.S. I know it is more complicated than just DP for Gobert, but that is one way to look at the issue as a hypothetical.

So the big thing here Kamm is that Dwight is under contract, Gobert on the other hand would be an additional 20+ mil a year, likely a 100+ mil total contract. I think Rick likes the fit of Powell just fine to my amazement honestly. 

As I have said if Mavs are looking hard for a big upgrade its probably going to be a guard/wing that is a playmaker to replace what THJ currently brings. I think in terms of frontcourt they like smaller type moves (Crowder/Gasol-types) for depth.
