    They seem so contradictory in styles
    Lou seems to be a finesse player
    EGo is power and strength.

    I think they fit their teams.
    I think on the Clippers Ego's power is redundant
    On the Rockets Lou's finesse would be too much of a defensive liability

    Let's see what happens tonite.

    Gordon is garbage...can’t wait until he’s traded

    got paid, and then turned into pure sh*t

    Lou is far more consistent

    Lou is a sixth man that's actually being used a sixth man. Gordon is a sixth man that the team is forcing as the third option.

    Ego possible needs less time.
    I think 25 minutes a game should be his tops
    but closer to 20

    For the regular season, Lou Williams.

    Playoff time, Eric Gordon.

    Mike needs to stop the Rivers/Gordon/Ben/Green lineups.Have defenders on the floor at all times. Not using DeMarre and Thabo is criminal.

    I mean they have more than enough players, the 7th, 8th, 9th man that can play the 6th man role.....too deep.

    Jamychal, Reg Jax, Harrell, McGruder, Shamet, whoever I didn't mention.

    When the trade for CP3 went down I was disappointed they gave up Lou instead of EG. My choice then was Lou Williams and that never changed.

    EG is good when he’s on but he seems to get butthurt about being a 6th man instead of a starter and he’s way too streaky.

    I prefer a consistent good rather than a hot and cold which still averages out to good.
