Yes, knucklehead... there have been questions about his focus and work ethic in Orlando. I’m not there, so I don’t know how much is it a lack of effort and how much of it is that Orlando just hasn’t given him minutes.
I think Bamba is better at moving than you give him credit for... having said that, I have questioned his feel for the game... but how much of that is because he doesn’t play much and is on a bad franchise.
This. He is behind 51mill of salaries at the big man spots. Unsurprising he didn't get many minutes - perhaps more surprising that he DID get 15 minutes a game?
Straight up for House? Sign me up. House might be the better and more polished player right now (MIGHT) but Bamba has a much higher ceiling.
yes it may shock you but not all second year players get better. Well... in any meaningfully way. For every Clint there’s also Bruno’s, Yi, and Harty. I’ve watched him play enough. In college love and in pros. As I said there is upside potential. But there’s also no meaningful progression potential. I do think he gets better as the most likely scenario. But House was also good (when available lol) and has a great contract. I’d just want a package expanded.
he would improve and be better playing next to Harden, that much is a given Expanded in what way? Nobody is taking EG, that is a CF fantasy, so that leaves Tucker and his 8 mil. That’s not much salary to expand a trade.
False. See Hassan Whiteside. Or go pull up some tapes of Chuck Hayes. Defense isn’t just being tall. Shot blocking is massively overrated as a defensive stat.
Foh with that Gordon is better than Gordon talk. Gordon is clearly better than Gordon. You don't know what you're talking about. If you don't think Gordon > Gordon, you don't know basketball.
Yea okay Gordon > Gordon Get your head out of your ass and watch these highlights and tell me Gordon isn’t better than Gordon
Again with the weak Gordon > Gordon argument? Wow. You're so wrong and you don't even know it. See?? Even in 2014, it was clear that Gordon > Gordon.
I don’t remember Ben Gordon hooping in the playoffs like EG has. EG was also essentially a starter on likely the 3rd greatest Rockets team to ever play. Defensively, it isn’t remotely close.
Yall over here arguing about Gordon vs Gordon, but the only Gordon that matters, is still playing basketball.
