Gordon is our second best player. We need to run more offense through him if CP is going to continue to be a b**** out there. Gordon is the only person on the team that wants to shoot the three, and with their 3rd best perimeter player on him all the time he can get to the hoop easily
As long as he doesn't have to dribble more than a few times, then we are golden. Eric has played good, he just needs to stop with the boneheaded mistakes.
I was going to start this thread. Cp3 and harden set him up, pass to him every time. Gordon is our best option until further notice. He wont be here next year btw. Nor will durant though
No he doesn’t. He needs to shoot the ball more and better when he is open. Coz whenever he drives or passes it turns into a TO 80% of the time
Eh, not sure, love Eric and so far he has been basically perfect and much better than expected, but giving him the ball too much is way too risky...he has the tendency to **** up his dribble and throw some wild passes...tbh his current role is what suits him more here, in some games he's our 4th best player, in others our 2nd best...he's basically Klay Thompson for us.
Gordon has been the most consistent Rocket this playoff after not really making much of an impact in years past.
I agree that Gordon needs more opportunities to run the offense. But Chris Paul has been good running the offense as well. My point is, Harden should take a step back more and play the 2 guard and let these two guys help him run the offense. Harden's offense is too predictable. He can run solely the offense within the last 2 minutes of the game but not before to diversify the offense!
Rocket just need to recognize when EGO is feeling it. I got so angry when Harden basically passed off the ball in winning time and gave it to EG. Harden recognized that EG, not only was hot, Cataracts Curry was on him. EG hit Curry with a 3 in his b****-ass irises.
He works best as a catch and shoot guy. When he puts the ball on the floor with the intent to make a play for someone else, it usually ends badly. Gordon is the guy I want to have tunnel vision, though. When he drives to the basket with the intent of scoring it, he's effective.
I don't know about running the offense through him but we need to get him more in motion to free him up and move the ball more which will give him more chances.
he's having a career playoff year because the defense is focused on harden and paul, two of the best playmakers for like 20 years. w/e they're doing with eg keepi t that way. he's one of those players who can feed off of star players in big way like shawn marion.
