What I like about Gordon is he has the confidence as if he is a star. He looks like his own man out their. He always looks eager to get the ball in his hands and make a play. Also I think the fact that he can have harden or Paul out there with him opens up allot more for him. I'm thinking this guy will be our 3rd mini star. He did this against the best team in basketball. I feel sorry for the rest of the NBA.
Just keep him healthy as long as you can. I don't think we can count on EG in the playoffs. He had an incredible start last year, too, but even coming off the bench, I'm concerned he'll once again get little nagging injuries through the course of the season that hamper him enough to turn him into just another guy.
Anyone who detailed saw Gordon change during the Thunder series. He wasn’t getting calls I think for a few games and he looked like Gohan v Cell after that. I remember telling my wife “man Gordon is playing pissed.”
Last year when Ego got hurt, who did we have that could score on the 2nd unit? Dekker? LOL... no. This year, we have Tucker, Moute, and even Troy WIlliams.
Just take a moment to consider that the Rockets have a 3 guard backcourt rotation of James Harden, Chris Paul and Eric Gordon. Man.
He was the reason the clippers were even able to get CP3. The pels thought high enough of Gordon that they believe he could replace superstar in his prime CP3 but he didn't want to be in NO
Honestly who else was shocked as hell when he dunked. The second time he did it, I lost it. It's always nice to have some exciting plays from your team.
