    ryno stopped shooting and became hesitant. EG keeps shooting and has completely lost his touch. from a 3 pt champ to the level of dort shooting.

    it's sad dort has just a good of a shot than he does. let that sink in

    The fall of Eric Gordon has been fascinating to watch. From NBA 3 point champ to the black Luther Head.

    Ryan Anderson was bad, but he wasn't this bad, was he?

    He has lost his confidence, you could see it for the last 2 years, his hot streaks were fewer and further apart, he is so inconsistent, still can't believe we gave him 50m.....

    Just pray now that someone I think is in decline can just get it together for one or two more seasons.

    18% is Dort territory.....only with EGO it is like 10 times as many shots missed.

    These are averaging high 30's low 40s. It ain't Morey's fault they forget how to shoot once they go to the Rockets.

    I'm starting to think it's fatigue from shooting too many 3 pointers that takes a lot ouf of the legs. Tucker is the most accurate player and that's cuz he only takes a couple of shots a night and he only stands on the corner on offense.

    I've always hated EG, this overrated bum but some here gets a hardon whenever EG has one good game every 4 games.

    Paying for him wasn't a mistake, but it should only be to trade him. Now that he's played so poorly in the playoffs, his value has tanked and it probably won't be possible to move him without giving up another pick.

    Also, can PJ stop bricking those open corner 3s? This series would've been over already if we can hit open shots.

    analyze it month by month and youll find hes shooting poor for most of the year only to have an exceptional month or 2 bringing his percentages back to average

    What struck me was how amazingly consistent was his 3PA after he joined the Rockets. 8.8 attempts per game for 3 straight seasons. The average only dipped slightly this year. But his percentage keeps dropping like a ball rolling down a slope. From a 40% 3pt shooter in New Orleans to now below 32%.

    PJ should put a milk carton in his locker.
