| Does Gordon have Jumper's Knee? Posted by TigerinATL Other posters have suggested it and doing a bit of research, LINK , it fits the symptoms: quote: It fits the rehab: quote: It even fits the preventative measures. Gordon complained about having to get to practice 2 hours early to stretch. quote: This condition is so common it has a nickname and multiple articles on nba.com So the question is, was this a failure of the Hornets medical team to diagnose a common condition, or a failure of Monty, the FO, and Gordon to communicate this? Or was it both? If he has an actual diagnosis which the specific treatment course prescribed by the doctor in Chicago suggests, why haven't they come out and given us a diagnosis? Why hasn't Gordon told people attacking him on twitter what his diagnosis is rather than just calling them idiots? This is either a trade demand or a colossal medical and PR fail.

| Its not a butt hurt statement If Gordon really has this, and it is a common injury, he shouldn't me missing season's worth of games with a mystery injury. Period Because you can't deny that this whole situation has been a giant PR clusterfrick Reply Back to Top |
quote: What are you talking about? We have a bunch of facts that seem to only add up to 2 things, a trade demand or incompetence somewhere within the organization. I'm not trying to rip anyone in particular I'm just trying to understand what the information we have is telling us. If you have a less "butt hurt" interpretation, or even a better medical diagnosis, feel free to add it. Reply Back to Top |
| when, exactly, did Gordon call people idiots on twitter? and nobody knows the full story and we probably never will, so there's no way we will ever know if it was or was not a PR, medical, or EG fail Reply Back to Top |
| Why do people keep trying to rip the Hornets for a signing that every team in the league would've made? And why would the Suns medical staff, who people like to worship like gods, give the ok for Phoenix to throw $60 million at Gordon if there was something there that our guys didnt see?

Supposedly he was yesterday, but there is nothing on his twitter now. Check in the rehab tweet thread quote: Which is exactly what he's saying. This whole thing never should have happened. There had to have been a better solution and someone fricked up Reply Back to Top |
| someone on here made that tweet up. Reply Back to Top |
quote: That still doesn't change anything though. My point wasn't that Gordon called someone an idiot but that he hasn't responded to critics with a diagnosis. That would probably shut a lot of people up. Right now many people think he's doing pretend rehab on a fake injury with no name. quote: We may not ever know, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't ask the questions. If it's not a trade demand then there most definitely was a failure someplace or even multiple places, and by asking questions and shining a light on potential inadequacies, hopefully the Hornets will address the problems.

| Someone else posted another one So we just have trolls on here making up tweets for Gordon? Reply Back to Top |
| i'm going to seriously doubt eric gordon said "bruh," so I'ma place that under the fake tweets people have been posting left and right on here. as for the rest of it, i'm just going to stick with what i've said all along, and that's that EG just has a very low tolerate of pain for a professional athlete. on top of that, he likely has some type of phobia of speaking to the media. he's 23 about to turn 24 on Christmas. i'm 23, and I can't imagine being under that amount of pressure.

| Come on man, its 8am and you're online diagnosing Eric Gordon over the internet. You want to find something. Again I ask, if the Hornets staff screwed this up so badly, then why did the Phoenix staff also give the ok to sign Gordon to a max offer? This is the same staff that wouldn't give the ok to re-sign Stoudemire due to...concerns about his knee. This post was edited on 11/13 at 9:56 am Reply Back to Top |
| So they made up a fake tweet of someone calling him out then another fake tweet of his response? Because I don't think too many people got the joke on that one Reply Back to Top |
| The tweets I posted were real. Reply Back to Top |
| Oh look. This is where I parked my car Reply Back to Top |
| unless someone has a screen shot of those tweets, then i highly doubt it. he has not in the past, as far as I recall, replied to anybody questioning him. i doubt he would start now. Reply Back to Top |
| Then Eric Gordon got smart and deleted those tweets Reply Back to Top |
this is what i get for defending him Reply Back to Top Refresh |
