not a fan of any of the 5 from bleacherreport. this one gets the clippers a terrible contract in matthews, an expiring contract in noel, and a backup pg. when they could just keep dj and his expiring contract.

Gpack, I think your expectations for a Jordan trade are way to high. I think this trade makes far less sense for the Mavs than the Clippers.

How so? Jordan was an all nba center 2 seasons ago and has been top 2 in rebounding the past 3 seasons. If the clippers are trading him, its to get assets for the future and shed salary like wes johnson to package him with. Otherwise, they can let deandre walk after this year and shed salary. I doubt they would be willing to trade Deandre and take on bad contracts only to get a protected 1st that they won't get to use for 2 or 3 years.

The Clippers have almost no young assets, a missing pick and will have trouble finding players to spend any money they shed on. Jordan is a former allstar, but on the offensive end he's a limited player, on defense he's a great shot blocker but struggles on the perimeter and he's potential rental. Look what other stars have been traded for recently. He isn't going to net them a package even as good as George or Cousin's.

You're also acting like Mathews and Tristan Thompson are Deng or Noah. They're guys who are slightly overpaid, but they aren't guys that you would have to attach a first to to move them. They're both better than anything the Clippers will be able to bring in at this point in free agency. Especially, Thompson given his age and ability to fill the hole left by Jordan.
