Love just agreed to extension
Gordon's is probably gonna get a 4yr/ 50-55 million deal. Hornets have all the leverage in this situation. If a deal doesn't get done, let Gordon test free agency and then just match the offer he receives. Don't understand all the he wants to "go to the pacers talk". The Pacers are a 1st rd fodder playoff team at best. I would rather be in the Hornets position rather than the pacers position just good enough to make the playoffs, but not considered a real threat in the east.
good lord, if the bulls could land gordon that team would be incredible!
also gordon is most likely gonna be making about 13.5 - 14.5 mil, anyone who thinks we r getting him for 10 is on crack
Tell me about it. Landry cost $8.5.
Gordon and Rose actually played together on an AAU team back in the day (they were unstoppable) and Gordon was the scorer, while Rose was the distributor. Gordon also tried to get Rose to commit to Illinois to play with him, before he left for Indiana.
Chicago is obviously a pipe dream, but I just thought I'd throw that out there.
yes and what people dont know is that basically every summer Drose would come and live with the Gordon's they are still very close and train together in the off season.
that backcourt was the best backcourt in AAU history bar none to bad we only got to see it for a very short period of time.
I was only pointing out that Chad Ford was right about saying EJ's first choice isnt NO which is true.
But my guess is at least 50% of players in the NBA play in a situation or place they dont want to that is part of the game.
Oh yea to bad we only got to see an AAU team for a short period of time. I don't think "we" cared that much about it.
Thanks for the insights EJ_23. You've made a valuable contribution to this discussion.
If players only played with the teams they wanted to play for their would only be 6 teams and then the rest would be called the Washington Generals filled with Squeaky Johnsons and Brian Butchs.
Anyway get this mofo signed. 57 Million is enough.
It's irritating to think, but there's a good chance really good players are just like this. They see their peers go where they please...not unreasonable to think they want to do something similar.
Just wish things were set up more like the NFL where you just nut up and play where you're at until you're a true free agent...but even then teams can throw a ton of money at you and you find where you are much more appealing.
I LOVE NOLA but if an employer flashed $55 mil in front of my face I'd move to friggin' Montana.
I would not move to Montana for $55mil. #NOLALOVE
Montana, HERE I COME!
