    I have always been a HUGE fan of EGO, when he came out of Indiana and played with the Clippers I thought he was a great player, elite driver and finisher at the rim. He has had major bad luck, not Schaub bad luck, like real bad luck, I thought he was better then D-wade back in the day because he was elite at shooting and driving.

    He also is very under rated defensively.....

    He wants to be All-Star. Morey, no need to find another All-Star.

    I'm just concerned the way he falls. Im glad he is being aggressive but due to his injury history I hope he is more selective as the season progresses.

    I still can't believe some people wanted to give up Eric for Melo. I like Melo, but we weren't getting superstar Melo anymore.

    If he has a good mixture of both it would 1.) keep the defense off balance and 2.) get him even more wide open 3s the way James has been able to work it.

    I like the aggressiveness but I'm sure it'll get more 50/50 as the season unfolds and CP3 returns.

    He is definitely our third star. It's amazing how much bad fortune cause the league to undervalue this guy.

    Also, if I only had $1 for every time someone typed "Gordan".

    He probably needs to take some Aikido classes to learn how to fall redirecting energy to the ground avoiding injury.... James Harden is really good at this.

    This is great news. If he does this fairly consistently, he will have a better season than Melo. I don't think it has a significant impact on injuries. But I know that people will blame him if he gets injured now that he's said this.
