    Like Gordon’s fit, even if he isn’t as talented a player. Adds some playmaking to the front court.

    25% of his shots are midrange...needs to get rid of that.

    the problem is we would need a replacement for Westbrook, and Orlando doesn’t have one.

    ORL tight against cap, so AG salary not enough.

    Expect to see either 3rd team or Fultz and other players added.

    I really like Gordon and would be a great fit here, but he would be kinda redundant as long as we have PJ since both are 4s at this point. This also still leaves us with two holes in the starting 5 so, i don't know, i get we could still get other players like Fournier or Bamba, but if we make a trade to compete, they don't give me any confidence at this point, i'd rather take Wall and piece/s from Washington if that's the case.

    I also wonder if this talks were pre draft, cause Orlando drafted Cole Anthony.
