Sports Hangover: Gordon ready to go, he and Davis playing together in two weeks

Alexander, host of the Hangover on 690 said Gordon told him he is ready to go. Also predicted that he and Davis will be on the court together in two weeks.

Ready to go?! Get your @#$ down here and ball then!

I hope this is true... i really do. Also keep in mind December 15th approaches....

Awesome!

woohoo! about effin time

I don't believe it until he is on the court. Usually I give players the benefit of the doubt with stuff like this but not Gordon.

Uh uh. I'm not getting excited. You can't trick me twice.

Ready go where?

I'm salivating at a healthy squad.

When I hear ready to go I'm thinking now not two weeks from now. Is he ready now or will be in two weeks?

Even if he is ready, I see that as no reason to accelerate the process. Move along at the pace you were planning to from the start.

"he and Davis will be on the court together in two weeks"

I think he is saying he is predicting Davis to be back in that time.

Yeah that part was confusing. Either way I don't expect him back for another 2 weeks. If he's back before than that's just gravy.

Ready to go? you mean ready to go in 2 weeks? Big difference.

Ready to go? As in to another team?

Like someone else mentioned why rush him back? Wspecially for a person with his history. Id rather ease him into things. Once he is a full go in practice let him come off the bench for 15mins, then 25mins you know. slowly allow him to come back and make sure he wont suffer any setbacks.

What do you mean, why rush him back? He's been out for two years already.... At some point he has to be "ready to go"... It sounds like this is that time..

Lol, hopefully this time his comeback isn't as short-lived.

Yeah. Rushing him back? I've seen blown out ACLs take less time to recover from. But, as before, I'm not getting my hopes up this time. I'll see it when I see it.

And I expect Davis to back before that time, btw.

Gordon changes the dynamic of our team so much. I believe he is going to amplify the play of Anderson and GV so much. Also makes our pick and roll game that much better. It will be fun to watch.

EG pick n roll with Davis... The drive... He fakes the lob to AD and kick it out to Ryno on the wing... Ryno for 3 ???

BINGO !!!

Can't wait !!!

exactly, so when someone has that bad of an injury history, and they are "ahead of schedule" of the original time frame that was given out, why risk it. as many have said before we arent contenders this year. what is 1-2 weeks when you have have waited an entire season?

I agree 100%. I know many are hoping for another high draft pick, but we can't afford to be a bad team this year. We need to attract FAs in the offseason, and the way to do that is to put a winning team on the court as soon as we can. If Gordon and his doctors say he's "ready to go," then he's ready to go.

A few weeks ago, we all said "it's not structural, it's a pain issue; Gordon should play through it." Now Gordon is (allegedly) pain-free and we want him to "not rush back" so that he doesn't risk "aggravating" this non-structural pain issue?

Why let LeBron play the regular season when the Heat can easily get to the playoffs without him? He has to play sometime.

It seems listening to the podcast of the show leads one to a different conclusion.

Try hour 2.

I dont think we'll give him super huge minutes from the start.. obviously, but he has to play sooner rather than even more later

Yeah because this is the exact same situation. You will be the first person complaining when he retweeks something and he's out the rest of the year because his first game back we played him 40 minutes.

He never said he talked to Gordon. Seemed like the guy might have just been reading a little too much into the presser Gordon gave to the media when the Hornets played the Clips a few days ago. He goes on to say he predicts Gordon and Davis will be on the court within the next two weeks

Yeah, he said "he actually said he's ready to play, they're going to be playing very soon together, I predict within two weeks." I misinterpreted a little, was rushing out of my car after pulling up at work when he said it. I guess during the 21 minutes that passed after he said it it somehow shifted into my head to these words being spoke to Alexander...:hihi:

If this squad is 100% healthy till January it'll be the best Christmas present I could hope for. lol


My ONLY "trade Gordon" scenario now is package with Aminu, and even maybe throw our first rounder in, for Paul George and Gerald Green lolz, imagine that squad?

Vasquez / Rivers
Green / Mason
George / Miller
Davis / Ryno
Lopez / Smith

^ That would be terrible value. Just awful.

I mean, okay, I'm one of the Eric Gordon supporters, so I highly doubt that. Always have been. Check all my posts if you'd like. The point is, at one point or another, the dudes gonna have to play and since this team obviously doesn't think too highly of tanking, I'd like to see him back on the court so we can really compete. I don't think this process has been rushed or will be rushed at all. Do you? Drew Brees came back from his 'career ending injury' quicker than this. He can't keep being a recluse.

Am I frustrated? Yes. But I believe nearly everyone on here is as well.

Given Gordon's injury history... not really. Rather that team play 82 games than a Hornets team minus Gordon 70 games of the year lol.

I hate gordon trade talks.
