    Can't believe I didn't think about this sooner, but with Capela being brought back on a revenge tour, any chance that Eric Gordon is our new backup SG?

    EG was excellent at his best. Unfortunately, he isn't any good now.

    I would rather have him in the locker room than Cam Whitmore. Neither one will get minutes on this team next season.

    My man is more washed up than Castaway at this point.

    Eric Gordon is a good dude but I think he's not going to see a second of playing time come the playoffs. Like not 1. Just too too far gone at this point.

    It depends if we are trading Cam or not. If we move him and nobody else is coming back, I guess I’d be cool signing him for the vet min in an emergency only situation. But I’d have to think there are G Leaguers Stone wants to take a look at instead.

    Then why would he decline his $3.4 million player option? Makes as much as Gary Trent Jr. currently does at that point...

    What do you mean? Dude still shot 40% from 3 and 59% TS playing for a team with Maxey, Mcain, PG and Embiid injured.

    He is perfect as the guard equivalent of Unc Jeff.

    Dear basketball jesus,

    Release this board from the shackles of Eric Gordon. Guide these posters toward the light as we embark on an Eric-free journey towards a championship. Deliver us from unwanted bricks and screaming for fouls on layups missed.

    In the name of the Dream, Rudy T, and the 95 championship team…Amen

    Genuinely embarrassing how often he’d dribble into traffic to lose the ball and act like he got shot only to complain to the ref and not get back on defense.

    Since when are 20 roster spots allowed....they played their hand getting 3-4 Centers instead of guards.
