    Eric Gordon

    I want to start off by saying I've been so impressed by Eric Gordon lately. He has looked great, and has been exactly what this team has needed.

    With that said... Would you trade Eric for expiring contracts or a fake second round pick before the trade deadline? I believe MM posed a similar question before the season and I'm just curious with what people have to say.

    Trading him would set us up very, very nicely for this summer, but it would greatly diminish our playoff chances. I'm not advocating for anything, just honestly curious what people think. Glad Gordon has played well enough to make this reasonable.

    I don't think that's entirely possibly, but I would do the trade as well. Trust Dell with the flexibility, don't think DELL would do it though.

    No. That would just about guarantee we miss the playoffs. He will be tradable next year

    I said that trading him for a fake 2nd round pick in the offseason would be possible. Not now. Nobody has the cap room.

    I think you mentioned a possible in season Steve Nash trade, right at the start of the season. Agree, that it wouldn't likely happen during season just more of a hypothetical to see what different fans value.

    There's no need for nate once Jrue returns

    I'm curious what y'all think. Sorry if this was discussed elsewhere, would you be opposed to Jrue coming off the bench when he comes back? This current rotation is working, why upset that. Plus I think it would help Ryan and it gives you added flexibility at the 2 spot.

    I would be shocked if Nate is on the team when we play OKC on Wednesday. I would also be shocked if Dell isn't planning on adding another guard - either via trade or FA. Trade deadline is over AS break. We have 5 games before then. It's probably Jimmer's job in the short term, and maybe Jrue comes back and we don't need another guard - but with Jrue's lingering stress reaction and Gordon still having a torn labrum, I think Dell would be making a mistake if he doesn't add another guard before the deadline.

    Gordon has played GREAT since coming back from injury and he's proved that missing a few weeks and rehabbing was the better option than surgery. I hope he keeps this up, only UPING that trade value

    I wish we would sign Nate for the rest of the season, I like his game, plus he is not really hurting us financially.

    Nate is redundant

    He's Jimmer with 0 offense

    If gordon didnt have such terrible injury history I wouldnt be opposed to keeping him. He really is a great talent when healthy.
    I'm a grinder

    Which is what David Stern thought he was gifting us when he vetoed the other horrible CP3 trade.

    Rubio looked good last night - think they're ready to move Mo now?
