    I heard he’s worried about being traded. That was the excuse before

    He's streaky, he's looked good that last couple of games passing and attacking the hoop, he will be fine. It's the same with the "Chris Paul is declining" crowd.

    He don't want to be here. ;)
    I wish him all the best & much success with his next team.

    Gordon has gone through these really bad slumps before, it's frustrating to be honest.

    I think he should diversify his offense. no more chucking 3's to start. if he has an open mid range, just take it get the confidence back

    he’s a chucker who can’t buy a shot right now

    he is shooting 33% from the field and 25% from 3 which is unbelievably atrocious, but he’s still somehow the most overrated player on the team on here

    7 games in a row without a negative in the +/- column.

    His shooting woes are frustrating, no doubt, but good things are happening when he’s on the floor. He’s not a Ryno type that gives you absolutely nothing when his shot isn’t falling.

    Pretty much only capable of giving 1 good performance every 2 weeks.

    Gotta move him for a legit 3rd wing upgrade

    When he is playing bad he shoots too fast, rushing even open threes. When he takes his time to line up the shot, open or not, he is deadly.

    Well he doesn't really look bad on defense, really never see him miss switches.

    Also Opponents still play him like he a great shooter, even though he's like Brewer at this point, they still try to run him off the 3 point line

    He's a career 37% shooter, plz lets not compare him to Brewer(who I actually think is a great guy).

    You still have to run him off the 3pt line because if he catches fire or establishes a rhythm he can stretch a defense like Steph Curry.

    I think it's just over between him and the Rockets. I honestly don't buy that it's not intentional anymore. I REALLY didn't want to believe it. Too long a slump to be unintentional imo. I don't think he shoots to miss but I don't think he cares if it goes in.
