    So when can Gordon be traded?

    I keep seeing people say the trade deadline but recall reading that since the team matched the Suns offer he can't be traded at all this year -- regardless of the team. And before anyone says 'But... but... we won't get good value.... BAAAAAAAAAAAWWWW,' getting rid of his contract is value enough at this point.

    On the contrary, I think some of you aren't reactionary enough. How much more of this do you need to see before you realize it isn't worth it?

    According to trade machine, can't be traded until December 15th. Also says we need his consent to trade him for a year after matching. Though I doubt that would be an issue for some reason.

    I believe he CAN be traded this year to anyone EXCEPT the suns. He does have a "no trade clause" for this year that basically just means he has to sign off on any trade this year.

    I've come down off the rage high, but even I'm leaning more towards the escape clause.

    Can't be traded until Dec. 15th. Can never be traded to PHX. Has a no-trade clause that allows him to void any trade between now and June 30th

    I'd laugh pretty hard if we dealt him the day of the fifteenth, ASAP.

    He's already signed off on any and all trades.

    When did that happen? He literally said he would accept being traded anywhere?

    If we could get George, I'd be over the moon.

    I doubt the Pacers would make that trade. They are really high on him. And for good reasons.

    Granger is a stronger possibility though.

    "I'm not going to allow my putative owner to answer that question, this is an NBA related press conference. Paul Tagliabue and Roger Goodell have collectively sung their praises of Tom and if uh ESPN has a problem with that tell Mr. Skipper to call me at my office."

    We cant trade gordon until Dec 15th anyway. And Granger has played in at least 60 games every year of his carer. Little better track record dont you think?

    Gordon is proving to be trash. Paid for nothing.

    Exactly. I don't know why people keep saying but "Granger is hurt".

    Granger has proven to be a lot more durable of a player than Gordon has over his career.

    Is he better? Technically, because Gordon can't do anything for us in street clothes.

    at this point brandon roy has a better track record... I'm so fed up with the situation i'd take "cash considerations" for him.

    whats strange is 2 days ago he tweeted
    Eric Gordon ‏@TheofficialEG10

    In two days it's on and poppin'.
    Wish the organization would just be up front with us. That tweet makes it sounds like HE WANTS TO PLAY... so i dunno anymore. Just aggravated which i am sure is clouding my better judgement
