EG the last couple of games has gotten it together, Hope it continues. Because this stuff before the last two....ugh PJ Tucker, owner of the corner three!
Not surprised in this. He makes quick decisions. He either shoots or safely swing passes it. Immediately. And he doesn't put he ball on the floor to attack the basket.
Conversely to your "not surprising, he doesn't put the ball on the floor or attack the basket" explanation, that Gordon 13th Ranking stat just pops off the page, right ... esp. compared to who makes up that list.

It does. Especially considering how he puts the ball on the floor to attack the basket. And to a lesser degree his passing which is really hit or miss.
That could be directly (and exclusively) related to defenses loosening up due to the Freedom of Movement rules. And/or, our offensive chemistry is improving with regard to getting Gordon loose easier, such that his TOs dropped a significant amount.
I kinda thought this initially. But the "headband" was more for hair/vanity reasons for Harden in the last game. Still, it was a nice change of pace.
