    I don't see Gordon as a chucker. He is a 3 point specialist that can also put the ball on the floor and create space on layups, or finish with a nice assist.

    Gordon is already the 2nd best offensive talent in the James Harden era.

    This is really the best case scenario for the Rockets.
    - Everyone is healthy (KNOCK ON WOOD)
    - Offense is clicking but not in a fluky way. This is a consistent offensive attack.
    - Young guys are contributing and developing. We came into the season hoping that Capela. Dekker or Harrell would step up and all three have stepped up HUGE
    - Gordon has filled the 2nd playmaker, scorer off the bench beautifully
    - Defense hasn't been too bad and has locked down when they absolutely need it
    - Got Bev back way ahead of schedule
    - Harden has succeeded his 2014-2015 form and has become a better leader

    Because we are winning, should Morey stop his job on trying to figure out how to make trades to improve the team this year? It's a serious question.

    What a reaming. I'll bet even Kobe has a sore ass after tonight.

    When has Morey said that what he wants most is to not make any trades?

    Awesome.

    At this rate, Gordon is a shoe-in for Sixth Man of the Year.

    That's not what I said or my point. My point is that just because you are winning, doesn't mean that you stop making changes or upgrades to make the team better.

    This would be a game that we either lose or win ugly coming off a 4 game winning streak a year ago.

    We always bring up MVP candidates head to heads, but this was a 6MoY head to head, and Gordon won it

    Julius Randle really impressed me tonight. Harrel may have that potential if he works on his game. Montrez already has a decent jump shot too.

    Why fix something that's not broken?
