           no need for this now that we realize we were talking different trades
Nov 04th 2014
71
                Oh, I thought you were talking about Harden's trade. My bad.
Nov 04th 2014
72
                     lol, i just realized the same mistake was happening.
Nov 04th 2014
73
      First of all, I'm the one bringing logic to this conversation.
Nov 04th 2014
74
Didn't say his team was winning. But he was...
Nov 04th 2014
35
      and a better player than neither.
Nov 04th 2014
38
      And you can easily say that now cuz he has no knees
Nov 04th 2014
39
           nah, i'm talking about the time he was a better shooter and.or defender
Nov 04th 2014
40
                Cool
Nov 04th 2014
46
      Who would you rather have?
Nov 04th 2014
43
           Why are you comparing Hardens 2012 to Gordon's 2011?
Nov 04th 2014
49
                That's my bad, thought I was looking at the same year.
Nov 04th 2014
51
                     Well it's not comparable. And Gordon got hurt.

Imagine if LAC included Eric Bledsoe instead of Eric Gordon for CP3
Nov 04th 2014

Yup, LA gave us the choice: Bledsoe or the Minny pick
Nov 04th 2014

New Orleans would've been foolish for taking that deal.

not sure what his contract is lookin like or if it's worth it. But with Tyreke in a starting role, Gordon is just getting in the way.

Josh Smith is probably the only contract/player I could see working. And that is a non-starter for us.

Just hoping he finds his confidence/form and opts out at the end of the year. Sigh...

I thought of, but to me Eric Gordon is worse to have cause he almost offers nothing at this point. Josh could at least get a block or two and a few rebounds if his shot isn't falling. When Eric Gordon is off, it's just best to sit his ass on the bench.

If he can put together a solid year and stay healthy he might see the opportunity to get 3-4 years guaranteed (at say $8-9m per) as better than one more max year in his little self imposed purgatory, while risking injury to completely shoot his value for the rest of his career.

MAYBE 4/32 + security and a new situation >>> 1/16 + injury risk, trade rumors and general lemonheaded unhappiness.

In response to Reply # 14


  

          

An efficient 22 and 4 in his 3rd year for a Clipper team that was extremely reluctant to even trade him. No reason to think that wouldn't continue and improve. At that time he was being talked about as next in line at SG, not James Harden.

No other team trading their superstars (Orlando, OKC, Utah) got a young player of his caliber and upside.

Throw in a recent #8 overall pick, an unprotected 1st from Minny, and Kaman's expiring? Lol, I mean it wasn't even CLOSE.


If you want to question us matching the Phoenix max deal? Cool, definitely a worthy debate there.

But to continue to cry about a trade that everyone EXCEPT Laker fans agreed was better at the time? Its just bizarre, and really speaks volumes about just how spoiled and delusional your fanbase really is.

the only crumb of an argument that still exists is the merit of matching Gordon...nearly everyone called it that he would never be healthy. But even then, based on asset value, the Pelicans pretty much had to match.

He's one of those guys that hasn't really ever been the same since he got hurt. He's had arthroscopic surgery on both knees within a two-year span. I wouldn't be the same either.

He showed some flashes over the last two years before the second knee surgery. The potential was still there. But yeah, he'll never be the guy he was with the Clippers.

But the "mask and gun" meme was for a healthy Hibbert. This is a player recovering from his second knee surgery since 2012. Not quite the same.

He might have dropped 30 ten times for the Clippers that final season (don't have his numbers in front of me). He was the hottest 2 guard prospect in the NBA. While I wouldn't agree he was as hot an up-and-comer as the MVP (obviously) or Russy, he was a better shooter than both, easily dropping over 20 per, and still only... what, 22 years old? He was young and very talented. If not in their category, in the immediate next tier.

He wasn't sorry at all. His knees got cooked.

Not franchise player good. Not even Harden pre-Rockets good, but good.

Still - his numbers in his peak year were 22 points, 3 rebounds, 4.4 assists (56 games, 38 minutes a game). That's Jamal Crawford status. Good player, sure. But not comparable to the others.

I mean hell at that time, Tyreke Evans was comparable. Tyreke was GOOD, but wasn't ever thought of as close to Russ/Rose/the other elite 2s at the time

Crawford's best season was 20 points, 2.6 rebounds, 5 assists in 39 mins per game/80 games.

That's WAY different than 22.3 points, 2.9 rebounds, and 4.4 assists though. You're right. Carry on.

Just so we're clear:

Derrick Rose, coming off a 60+ win season and an MVP and Russell Westbrook, who was in the Finals 6 months after Gordon got traded.

He was right there with them? Even when healthy? RIGHT.

Gordon's Age 22 season is still better than Crawfords best season at Age 2-fucking-7. He was more efficient and a better shooter and a better defender and younger by half a fucking decade.

I'm simply comparing numbers. I said "Jamal Crawford status". Not "Eric Gordon was going to end up as good as Jamal Crawford."

I just said their numbers were comparable.

And they are.

For all the revisionism going on here, Eric Gordon was never an elite 2-guard. Never. Promising, sure, but the trade ended up a total bust and I'm sorry you don't see that.

jamal crawford status was bullshit. just admit it. Jamal Crawford wishes he had put up that line ever, let alone at age 22. at 22 jamal crawford was putting up 10 points on .41 shooting.

jamal fucking crawford. FOH.

Russ, Rose, Gordon, and Mayo ALL came in the same year.

They all had success early in their careers.

Mayo fell off around that time. And left the pack.

Gordon was still playing well.

All 3 were in the pipeline for Team USA.

All 3 were seen as the next generation of great guards in the NBA.

ERIC GORDON got hurt and never regained that status.

point to the 22/3/4.4 assist line on 45% shooting. i'll wait. my god.

>I mean hell at that time, Tyreke Evans was comparable. Tyreke
>was GOOD, but wasn't ever thought of as close to Russ/Rose/the
>other elite 2s at the time

at the time, people thought tyreke would explode. he put up 20 ppg as a rookie. so much hindsight being used here. then he had an off year and most people blamed the dysfunctional kings for that more than evans actually not having upside beyond his rookie season numbers.

eric gordon was a 22 year old sharpshooter who looked primed to be a 25 ppg guy who was a solid defender and maybe even could be a really good defender. that's a damn good player to pick up in a trade. compared to a 12/3/2 in 26 minute no-defending ass Harden (basa'll tell you, people were starting to call him a flop), he looked primed to be a star that season. Harden busted out in 11-12, after the trade, not before.

there was definitely risk involved there and there were better 2 guards (tho not many better young prospects at the 2 at the time). but no need to throw "jamal crawford status" bullshit in out of the blue.

Harden won 6th man of the year in 2011-2012 season, where he averaged those numbers I thought were the same year as Gordon's best year. Harden "broke out" that year - when they went to the Finals. He was ghost in the Finals and that was the big story. If he was a flop during that, who would have talked about it?

No, Harden broke out that year. When he got traded is when people saw him as a superstar, but Harden was a beast his last year with OKC and everyone admitted it. Prior to that, fine, but look at his numbers at the end of that season.

As for all your other shit - fine, Crawford was way less efficient than Gordon at their peaks, but the numbers aren't nearly as off as you seem to think they are. Still, the trade was a complete bust (if you overlook the possibility that its what led to AD - though that's impossible to figure out).

In response to Reply # 41


  

          

I didn't say the Russy/Rose bit. I'm also not underselling Gordon. I am telling it like it was-- he was the best young SG in the country, averaging 25 before his wrist injury, ending up with 22 for the season. At age 22. Today, any player averaging 22 PPG by age 22 is penciled in for countless ASGs and is labeled as having franchise potential.

Also, he was absolutely better than pre-Rockets Harden. Not at shooting the 3, and not at keeping his wrist and knee straight. But in pretty much every other facet of the game. Seeing as how Gordon feasted on first units (while also defending!) at age 22, I'm 100% confident he also would've won sixth man in relief of Durant and Russy if their positions were switched. That's obviously a hypothetical, but again, before the knee gave out, I'm pretty confident OKC would've dealt Harden for Gordon straight up. Gordon was better in high school, better in college, and better to date in the pros.

If you want to hold the injuries against him, that's totally fair game. But to say people viewed him as a Jamal Crawford type before the ensuing wrist and knee injuries is revisionist history based on the fact that he never reached full potential due to injury.

43. "Who would you rather have?"

16.4 PPG, 4.2 reb, 2.9 ast, 1.5 stl, on 44% shooting in 26 mins a game?

Or:

22 PPG, 2.9 reb, 4.4 ast, 1.3 stl, on 45% shooting in 37 mins a game?

Acting like he's SO FAR beyond Harden at that point is a little crazy. Plus, Harden played all 82 games and put those numbers up along with 2 ball dominant players. Gordon played 56.

49. "Why are you comparing Hardens 2012 to Gordon's 2011?"
In response to Reply # 43


          

And the answer is obviously Gordon cuz I liked his game better. He just had injury issues.

Still though, Harden's '12 season is comparable to Gordon's peak '11 season (pre trade obviously), and it was pretty clear Harden was better. Might not have said that at the time though so fair point.

that relied heavily on his athleticism and quickness. It was obvious that it wasn't going to end pretty. He was basically a poor man's D-Wade with a lower ceiling and a lower floor.

as much as Gordon did, Beal will be like Ray Allen bussing fools into his late 30's

44. "Imagine if LAC included Eric Bledsoe instead of Eric Gordon for CP3"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

I vaguely remember that's what they were trying to do in that original deal but NOLA held out for Eric Gordon instead... NOLA could have had Bledsoe as their PG going forward and not traded that pick that turned out to be Nerlens Noel for Jrue Holiday. I really do think the time Bledsoe spent with CP3 really changed his trajectory as a player though, his rookie year he was so raw at running the point and he's not the purest PG now either, but he definitely picked up some of CP3's tricks by playing with him.

So of course we essentially chose Austin Rivers over Eric Bledsoe.

As Gordon was a far greater asset at the time.

But if Bledsoe had been thrown in in addition to Gordon (instead of the Minny pick, as Kajun noted above), yes, he'd be playing alongside AD and that would be awesome (and TRBO would jizz his pants nightly).
