    Is it suspicious to anyone else that Gordon was going to miss this game.....and then Ariza was traded elsewhere
    and Gordon suddenly got healthy enough? Guess it’s just me.

    Can Gordon just shoot mid ranges from now on, the more 3's he shoots the worse he gets

    There has to be something going on behind the scenes. On the bright side his defense has been pretty solid.

    I’m starting to feel kinda sorry for him. Maybe Morey should just trade him and put him out of his misery. He’s the only movable asset we seem to have.

    I said this after the Lakers game.... he just needs to stick to driving in for the layups and he'll get more points. He's been pretty decent from that. His 3pt shooting has been awful.

    Nothing going on it’s that he is missing wide open looks. If his confidence was shot he would not keep taking them. He still keeps jacking up shot non stop. So his confidence is not the issue

    Maybe Gordon needs to be held.

    The Rockets built a House with all EGs bricks.

    We have been winning with Chris, James, and Eric in the starting lineup though. I think this creates a mismatch that favors the Rockets.

    What it does is minimizes Gordon’s affect on the team.

    Gordon needs to suck it up and play Harden had to play 40 mins tonight.

    No idea if the stats support it but it seems to me that as a starter he touched the ball less which as far as I’m concerned is a good thing.

    Off the bench it seemed like he had free reign to jack up shots and miss as much as he wanted.
