The hypothetical scenario talked about gordon (4th pick) or a lower pick with a starter in a trade (for example lavine) Gordon is good. But he is not an all star nor he has shown that he is capable of being the #1 weapon of the team. As a top 5 pick, you could expect that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
