2019-2020 Mavs Trade Discussion + Salary Chart

[vfromlmf]

The target is Aaron Gordon. 

I haven't been on the Gordon bandwagon because of low scoring efficiency, PPS 0.98 which is bottom 20% of the league at his position this year and far below average for his career. Recently acquired players and rumored targets e.g. Jones Jr and Olynyk are elite by this measure. But if Voulgaris likes him, I believe it. That guy is known for finding discontinuities.

Gordon actually provides much of what the Mavs are lacking. He's an excellent, strong, physical defender who can guard guys like Lebron and Kawhi when teams go small. Can bang a little. Good passer. Low turnover. Adds speed and athleticism to a lineup that needs it. 

I like Gordon much more than RoCo but not sure what the Magic would want. Jonathan Isaac is the future so I wouldn't be shocked to see them move on from Gordon.
