An older Deng is fine. He's not a player that relies on athleticism to do his job. He's a very good basketball player with a high basketball IQ. At age 31, he's hardly any different than at age 28 barring any serious injuries. Making that trade allows us to go after a PG or SG in the draft. Unless we get a top 3 pick, I wouldn't expect Marcus Smart or Ben McLemore though. I would love Oladipo, however. I also wouldn't be mad at a Burke selection because he is gifted offensively, I just don't think he's really special.

I would not be mad with a vet joining the team but if you want a vet Id say go after Iggy in free agency and keep EG just to see how he progresses

then say you draft Burke, Porter, or Shabazz thats not a bad team...you have some veteran leadership (Iggy, Ryno, GV) with some young talent (AD, Burke/Porter, Rivers) a potential All Star (Eric Gordon) and all this would come fairly cheap with the ability to develop players while maybe attracting one or two other role players etc

I get pissed at Gordon just as much as anyone but man he is a very talented player and if he pulls his head out of his arse this could be a very talented team

my 2 cents
