Sure seems like it

I came in this thread to put forward the idea of trading for Steven Adams. I see I am not the only one who thinks Adams would be a great complement to Porzingis. Young, agile and great defender. Would be a great fit imo. to
To me he would make an immediate, significant impact. The issue is that KP has had success at center so how do you manage that with Adams eating up at least 30 min at the center position? KP is comfortable at the 4 and can punish smaller players. At the 5 though he makes you pick your poison. Pick a big guy and he will shoot open 3's. Pick a smaller player and he will post them up or just shoot over them closer to the basket. If I could get Adams on the cheap, i.e. THJ + filler I would do it in a heartbeat. THJ is a useful bench player but we have depth on the bench and a starting center would be more valuable.
I don't see Mavs making this type of move any time soon and I also think the Thunder will hold out for a better deal at the TDL or even next summer when Adams is on a 1 year deal. Mavs will also have more pieces to trade at the TDL.
