    At least it ws not voluntary like TMAC I guess

    Sucks for EGO.
    I hope he heals well

    Last one left, Stone should’ve traded him once we got Dipo.

    Lol we are going to start losing by 30 instead of 20 now. Rag on Gordon but he’s played very well this season. Much better than Wall or Dipo.

    Might as well shut him down for the year. Most likely only a month or so left in the season by the time he gets healed. A Playoff team might still want him because there’s time for him to be ready by then, but any return would likely be so diminished it’s probably not worth taking. Just more bad news! Wow...

    I think it was unlikely anybody was picking up 2.5 more guaranteed years of Gordon anyway. He's here till the end.

    This was a good one, using the European/international date notation, it as actually the very palindromic 12.3.21 Gordon Injury Update.

    I'm glad @Rocket River commemorated this. They don't happen very often.

    In before the "who will get injured next and cost us 2nd round picks" thread

    Clemons injured before signing/keeping Gerald Green
    Nwaba broke hand before trading deadline
    Eric Gordon injured before trading deadline

    Ben Mclemore
    D House
    Sterling Brown
    Wall
    Oladipo
    Tucker (home incident on treadmill?)
    Tate
    Patton
    Exum
    Kurucs.

    Just one of those years. We can either cry or laugh.....and there's no crying on Clutchfans

    Wonder what the best we could have gotten for him. If it was less than a first than I’m not super upset. I think he’s a great second or third piece and just hasn’t been utilized right w harden and co.

    as soon as he strung together some good shooting games a couple months ago, i was like trade him now!!!

    inevitable he was gonna revert back to shooting slump AND get injured -- his career in a nutshell
