Would we be able to afford him?

If Demps doesn't move Gordon before 2015 Free Agency he should probably be fired. That's our last chance to add FAs before Davis' extension kicks. If he doesn't opt out Gordon will be an expiring then so I would hope a future first would be enough to move him. Signing someone like Asik will definitely be of more value than a pick in the late teens-early 20s. Also, I'm not sure Asik is worth much more than his $8 million cap figure. Supposedly one of the main reason Houston didn't get any offers it didn't like was the $14 million he's due next season. He's limited on offense and is bad enough at FTs that you don't want him in the game in crunch time. Although he has improved to 61.9% on FTs this season (career 54.4%).
