My biggest fear is that THJ is having some sort of contract like year steroid, that is making him play above and beyond his normal baseline.
So as soon as the Mavs throw 16mm at him he'll resort to being overpaid, and that's a big yikes. If the Mavs could sell high on THJ and get a replacement level 2 guard, like a Fournier, Bogdonavic, etc. that'd be best imo.
On the other hand, THJ's play could easily be explained that he's in a winning culture that is focused on his strengths, and that's why he's contributing highly right now. Its tough.
Gordon btw would be a dream get for me. He's a high level defender with still big upside. I don't think he'll ever be a star, but as a 3rd option on a contender he'd fit pretty well.
