    He’s actually Ben Dubose’s boss and does a lot of interviews with him

    Just feels like a lot. It's Gordon, 4 firsts, a 2nd, Clark, Hartenstein, Ennis, VE and rights to Lull.

    But I definitely agree on the direction you're looking at. Gordon is a guy worth giving up lots of future assets for because he's young and locked up on a great contract. Not to mention, if you look at his shot chart Clifford is a moron for letting him take some many mid range jumpers at a low %. Rockets would make him look far better offensively by turning a lot of those mid range J's into And1's. Would be a far better use of his athleticism.

    I hope we get someone of that significance. Fingers crossed.

    The Rockets getting healthy is probably more important than any deadline trade they could make, so if they stand pat, it wouldn't be the worst thing in the world. It would just up the need for a lucky string of health come April/May.

    eFG%is some rubbish made up stat to include free throws stat. Fg percentage is better because free throws are not field goals

    It's almost like free throws and 3's are apart of basketball and should be accounted for

    that is why you have a stat called "free throw percentage"......it's the only reason Gordon would have a "higher percentage" than Evans

    Umm, okay TS% is actually the stat you are talking about and yes it is better and yes FTs are important. eFG% is just FG% while taking into account that 3>2 and is better but TS is better than both because FTs matter as well. FG% is obsolete in 2019. TS(though it should be used over many games)>eFG>FG

    Generally people should try to be informed before declaring something rubbish.

    eFG% doesn't include free throws. It only adjusts for three-pointers, which are, in fact, field goals. Ones that are worth more when they go in and therefore are just as valuable as a 2-pointer even if shot at a lower percentage.

    Pretty sure @Codman meant AB as in Alec Burks. I've always confused the two as well.
