    But a stud vs. Jazz, Nuggets, Blazers, Wolves, etc.

    Clint only really struggles against GSW and AD.

    Morey - We are built for the Warriors
    Harden - They ain't even that good
    Capela - Bring on the Warriors

    It looks like we're going to lose Gordon anyways, so may as well trade him

    Losing Gordon would be a big mistake. He is the one player on our roster who showed up big time in the playoffs averaging 18 ppg and shooting 40% from deep. I know of his struggles during the regular season but none of that matters when he turns it up like he does every playoff run.

    Yeah, i already wonder what will eventually happen if we get another center in matchups like Utah and Denver for example, some people like to say we can easily replace Clint but i'm not sure about that, Looney is not going to catch lobs and run around Jokic and Gobert like Clint, DeAndre will catch the lobs but he's not going to make it as difficult for Jokic to stay with him.

    Not all aspects are equal.

    You gain a scarce resource. You lose a less scarce resource. Worth it.
