    No Gordon. Who will step up?

    Davis had to leave today's game after being the recipient of a fragrant 2 foul, hurting his hip. I wonder if he will be in the game tomorrow on a back to back after that.

    According to the schedule, Rockets have a B2B Charlotte/Minnesota, Friday at home vs Memphis and then Sunday at Brooklyn.

    Where is this so called Memphis/GSW b2b? Why am I reading posters suggesting Gordon sits out the next 2 games to prepare for this "brutal b2b"?

    I think your thinking of the old New Orleans Hornets. These are the Charlotte Hornets

    My point exactly. Resting Gordon for the "next 2" means he will still play a few games prior to that "brutal b2b".

    Whoever has been implying the Memphis/GSW b2b was immediately after the "next 2" was misleading

    Gordon being out is actually a pretty gaping hole in my opinion. It's bigger than Capela missing time considering the amount of production Gordon brings. Ryno and Ariza getting hot from 3 will certainly mitigate the absence of Gordon

    Here's my choice then. I'd like to see him get some PT and see what he can do.
    Can't be any worse than Ennis can he?

    Hornets are trash we should still be able to secure a win even without EG and Capela. Harden will carry

    They are not thrash by any means. Kemba is an elite scoring PG and MKG and Marvin Williams are solid players. Zeller is a underrated big as well.

    Batum is out for the Hornets. Rest Gordon. They don't play as well on the road. 9 in a row!
