Broussard: Hornets Gauging Interest in Gordon {merged all of Gordon rumors}

[Miss_318]

Personally i don't care which way it goes i just want Thursday to get over with. On face value Gordon is better than klay but I'd rather have someone who wanted to be here but there's no guarantee Klay would wanna be either[tho he probably would be less of an ego since hes only a 2nd year]. I don't think its ever going to be easy for us when we get players traded here. So I'm going to go into Thursday completely neutral on this, i won't mind whatever happens.

I with you on the bolded. I figure whether we do it now or in the summer...he's going to get moved regardless. Whether its because he doesn't want to be here or the Hornets have finally realized that this guy is too injury prone for the money we're paying him. either way you cut your losses and move on.

I'm sorry if it makes some on this board think I'm a "Gordon hater" but I don't want to sit here and watch this team fail to get anything out of this guy, thus hold the team back, because they don't want to admit they made a mistake by investing in someone thats not going to either be on the floor enough to really help the team or go all in mentally for the team because his feelings are still hurt over 1yr that wasn't added to his contract.


If we let him go for Klay...I'm fine with that. If we let him go in the summer, without having to worry about his veto power hindering the trade, I'm fine with that too. But I think either way he's going to get moved.

Dell... make this trade please. Send Klay to the Pels.

Buzz (no pun intended) is high about Klay to NO right now

Im glad we dont have an idiot of a gm. there is no reason to trade a 24yr old 2guard that is better than most for scraps. hurt or not its not good business to rush into trades that will not help the team. Plus i dont believe when sources are other websites that make up scenarios. and fans eat that up lol. the core we have is nice. we need to add a few more pieces and we will be a great team. folks need to chill with the bum trades and watch the work we will put in.

I'm not sure the chances are really very good, but I think its worth noting that it will take more than Klay Thompson to construct a deal for Gordon....

Of course it would be. Just saying that's the buzz. I'd do Klay + Jefferson in a heartbeat. Especially if they could throw in Green or a first.

[Smirk]

I don't like the trade right now. Because I fear we're gonna throw in a protected first too.

Other way around. Gordon is a much better player than Klay, and we'd have to take on money like Richard Jefferson to make it work. So they would have to throw more our way, I would imagine.

[Eman5805]

No one said fears are rational.

What if there's a giant spider too?

[BallSoHard]

I don't like Kay for Gordon. Would need a lot more to make this worth it.

[AD23forMVP]

He's injured, but some of us know how much Dell likes Brandon Rush. He's a part of the Warriors.

[Purple Haze]

It's gonna have to take Jefferson's over paid butt to make it work regardless, unless you do Klay, Rush, Green AND a first.

Remember when Gordon got here and people were saying in 2-3 years Gordon would be the best sg in the league? Where are those people?

They are still here, they just have started saying: "He's not 100%. Give him next year to get healthy"

I still think he COULD be but when you're always hurt .....

I am ready for the Gordon drama to end. However, I do not think that is enough for Gordon. I would want Barnes as well. Something like Thompson, Barnes and Beidrens for Gordon and Roberts. I doubt the Warriors would do that, but to me that would at least bring decent value.

LMAO!!!!

How is it those people's fault that he can't stay on the court? He's got the talent to be just that.

I'd rather do Deng/RIP/Teague for Gordon and Smith than the Warriors deal.

Beat me to it.

Imagine how fast our fanbase/media would have ran off D.Wade. Geesh you guys would trade Kevin Love for Chris Douglas Roberts.

If the Hornets are truly concerned with Gordon's injury history then they should do everything they can to get Golden State to accept this deal. I can't imagine getting a player much better than Thompson with the upside for Gordon, even over the summer.

There you guys are.

And by reluctant, what Golden State is really saying “no %&$#@* way.”

What a hack blurb article He just took Brussard's tweet and ran with what he wanted to get from it
