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

[cow]

I think it's as simple as these three questions:

-What would it cost to trade for him?
-Would he except an extension?
-Could you easily move that extended contract and get equal talent back?

From a trade perspective, these guys are off limits:

-Luka
-KP (for now)
-JRich (at least in the timeframe of this discussion)
-I'd also like to think the combo of DFS/Maxi isn't available together (one but not both).

So the trade would have to revolve around THJ, one of Maxi/DFS (probably Maxi), a pick and filler (one of our recent draft picks, Brunson, WCS). I'm not sure THJ is attractive to Utah so you'd probably need to include another team. And if my 3rd question is a yes, I could see another team coming to Utah with a better offer.

I'm not sure I love spending that much money on KP/Gobert either, but Cuban has often said zag when the league zigs. I guess it depends what the MBT views the prospect of KP's long term health is. They've got to be a little worried at this point.
