There's also been trade speculation the Hornets had exploratory discussions with the Indiana Pacers, which would be Gordon's top choice because Indianapolis is his hometown. But sources indicate there have been no serious trade discussions between the Pacers and Hornets involving any type of trade deal.

Nobody wants this dude right now. It's like me buying a Polo with a stain on it for $80 but there is a possibility the stain can not be removed.

Well then, if there is ANY WAY POSSIBLE, he needs to ball out the rest of the season so teams may want to reconsider this summer. :)

:hihi::hihi: Sounds like somebodies got a bit of "buyers remorse". Seriously though, funny analogy.

This all makes me wonder how the heck we ever traded Baron Davis back when he would never really play.

Right. If he wants to go to another team, he needs to try really hard to sell himself to those buyers.

I dont think there was really serious talks like fans believe. a lot of this was heresy and what people thought the front office would be interested in. I dont think Demps would of showed his hand that quickly ( no one saw the Ryan Anderson trade for ayon coming). i dont mind gordon staying with us he is a good player better than most 2 guards out there on both sides of the ball. But if we trade him we will have a gm that will get the best deal and not settle for medicore players

Sometimes a GM has to do with he has to do though. Lots of times if you're dealing with a certain difficult situation, you won't get equal value for a player. Baron Davis for Speedy Claxton, and Dale Davis. :help: But the disgruntledness and distraction was gone and started us on our way to rebuilding with Chris Paul, David West.

Right. I just hope Dell can get Value for him and not rush the trade just to get rid of him. I'm also tired of the drama and Pelicans don't stress. When Gordon gets traded he should invest in a new PR team and his own personal Dr to help him stay healthy, but he needs a Dr like House or Doogie Howser because he needs miracle healing

im with you but, who really knows if Gordon is not happy here. all of this based on assumptions of fans. i can see if we had a major issure like when BD got into it with Byron Scott at practice. but thats not the case . if we can stop assuming and let the Pels do work i think we will have a great team no matter what happens. i guess if some of us dont assume we wont have much to text about.

Fixed. :p

He's young though. Maybe he'll learn tact and may be able to remain healthy one day. I'm sure by the time that happens though, IF it happens, he'll no longer be here. Would've/could've been nice.

You guys take this all too seriously if you really feel like this is a lot of drama.

This is true. We, as humans, are very often quick to assume. Must be human nature. I think though, if he were playing every game, playing at least relatively well in most of them, there wouldn't be this much assuming.

Oh well, whatever happens, happens.

Because we traded him for scraps.

Very good article...

I wonder if the Hakim Warrick for Matt Carroll trade was our blockbuster for the year?
