However, there is no team that is going to give us a lottery pick for Gordon and his contract.

ESPN’s Chad Ford is reporting that fair number of late lottery level picks could be had in trade, especially as some of those teams look to swap an unproven draft pick for a proven veteran.
idk bud
Gordon is still 25. A team could see last year as getting his feet back under him after the injuries, and 2014-2015 could be his return to the 20 ppg scorer he was a few years ago.
Can't underestimate NBA GMs. You never know.

VERY true. Every year there is some stupid team that does something horrific.
On a related note, I was on a Pistons board and they are Sooooooooooooooo happy they got Jeff Bower. It is really funny.

One thing to keep in mind is that every team on the list besides the Bucks and of course Timberwolves have tried to insert themselves in the Kevin Love sweepstakes. This could be Ford stretching "Kevin Love Package" into Vets > Kids.
That being said, there are more assets (both cap space and high draft picks) than desirable talent. If a team saw the writing on the wall and decided to be 1st in line for scraps instead of last, I could see it happening. But nobody should get their hopes up. I don't think we're talking Charlotte giving us #9 and cap space for Gordon. If it happened it'd probably be closer to Boston giving Gerald Wallace and #6 for Gordon and Rivers.

Gordon stats are already solid. If he got even a few of the calls from the refs he should then he would have the averages most would want. I just would rather move Gordon because he has the worst contract and we have Evans and Rivers. I would rather spend that money on a C and SF.
