From what I know Nerlens is a good comparison in terms of length and size and I'm assuming their skill isn't very far off...if that's the case I'm turning more towards the Sanders to Nola camp

But I would rather trade Gordon...I love Reke dude can't shoot but I love him

I really don't like the idea of trading a guy you just acquired as your big FA a few months ago. It is a cold business and these things happen, but it also looks bad.

Even though Tyreke can't shoot for shite, I'd much rather move Gordon.

Nerlens has all the same downsides, but is much lighter, and a nice knee injury to help.

I've watched a bunch of Sanders, and I just don't see it. He's not exactly having to fight for rebounds on the Bucks, and he can't shoot. His amazing season he only played about 27 minutes a game because he can't shoot a free throw.

If it's just shipping Gordon out for Sanders, sure, I'll take a chance on him. But if it's Sanders and Mayo, and the $19 million along with them, that would be crippling IMO.
