20 games left? We know what he brings and we still need to get some guys some more minutes Like Nix and Jaygup. What’s the point of keeping that big in the Boston trade if he’s not goin to see minutes. That’s a waste of a roster spot that can be going to Queen. Having Schroeder, Wood, and Gordon finish the game last night was too much veteran leadership. A game like last night would’ve been a great learning experience for the youth to know how to play close games. Memphis youth movement had a lot of these games two years ago and we see where they are now. Same with the Hornets. I hope the last 15 games We see some extended minutes for everybody under age 24
Is that you Eric? we need to deep evaluate our youths and we not goin be able to do that playing Schroder and Gordon so many minutes and letting them close out games. We don’t need three guards other there anyway: We’re already getting bullied in the paint.
Like since yesterday. He played so bad. Barely even moved didn’t help much on the defensive or offensive side. And is injury prone, we need to shut him down and rest him now.
Clutch already posted he turned down offers. Stones an idiot. He thinks an aging injury prone EG is going to net him something better than what he can get now. Just flat out dumb
This is funny to me bc of he got like a contingent 2nd or a low first rounder for him, people would roast his as well. You don't trade just to trade especially someone who is a good locker room presence and when you are not in the business of winning that year.
Nope. That’s exactly what they should be getting. What’s funny to me is the trash they’ll end up with down the road when he gets hurt again and is that much older folks acting like EG is some rare get. He isn’t. Holding him at some high ransom is just stupid on this team.
I don't want a guy that is comfortable being on a LOSING team - I want a guy that is trying to teach them how to win....not a guy who is ok with losing. He needs to be gone. DD
How do you know he isn't doing as good of a job as anyone else would? Everything you said also seems to describe theis but everyone wanted him gone too. I think I'll take word of the players in the locker room over just us random people about how influencial he is
What's more dumb is getting a pick in a year you have multiple picks. What does age have to do with this lol? His contract expires at the same time this trade deadline as it does this off-season. Or do you think teams are too dumb to understand that just cause they get Gordon this year, they won't be paying his money next year ?
there’s nothing dumb about that. You collect as many assets as possible especially when you’re in a full rebuild. That’s common sense. The rockets are nowhere near a point where they pick and choose Age has everything to do with it. He isn’t young and he’s injury prone. He’s literally depreciating. All of those are huge factors in waiting until later to finally get rid of him. I guess you missed the memo where he isn’t an expiring contract
