    He 100 percent deserves to be an all-star If he can keep this up.

    No.

    That said, MDA having the dilemma of how to best manage the minutes of Harden, Paul and Gordon to get them all playing enough is an amazing problem to have

    (edit: sorry for the multiple posts. Either my phone is going buggy or I thought my point was really important and wanted to emphasize it by repetition)

    We still need an extra guard, even when CP3 come back. I liked the four guard rotation we had last season with Lou, Beverley Hills, Harden, and Ego. Our guard play straight annihilated OKC in the playoffs

    I wish we had Lou back, but looking forward to employing our three guard lineup to annihilate teams from time to time.

    Also hopeful that the Briante Weber or maybe a mid season acquisition vet can be our fourth guard sometime this season.

    we need the fourth guard to fill beverleys role, even for 5-10 minutes a game, even for two minutes, closing out halfs. we need a defensive stopper at the 1 to guard the initial pick and roll, which is usually going to be some star point guard.

    EG is a star.

    I just hope he can ease up on his body a bit. Sometimes he (seems) reckless AF and it makes me cringe because we need this dude to stay healthy.

    Can he do a Manu and stay with the Rockets long term for less money than get more money and be in the starting line up somewhere else?

    D'Antoni will convince him, but I don't know about DM (they all are assets for him).

    playing reckless produces good hormones in your body and make you strong and resilient and you heal and regenerate quickly
    caution lead to fear and bad chemicals thus you become weak, prone to injuries and slow healing

    Looking forward to Chris Paul getting back so we can dial back Eric Gordon's minutes. Really worried about running him down. Love what he brings to the team.
