| re: Eric Gordon already showing he is worth his contract (Posted on 10/4/12 at 2:42 am to MrLSU)
I have gotten the feeling from EG since he stepped in New Orleans that he didnt want to be a part of this team and city. I dont think that he likes Monty and what he is trying to do here. I think he is more concerned with scoring points than winning

Here we go with this crap again. There was literally nothing to base this on before the Phoenix incident.

Again, what are you basing this on?

Do you not have to score more points than the other team to win? 
Not to mention that Gordon plays very good defense.

You are reading way too much into it. He is just really, really, really, really genuinely bad at PR. He's not good at smiling for the cameras and I don't think he could pick worse things to say if he was trying to get traded.

There are maybe only 2 players in the NBA that don't love Monty, Marcus Thornton and Aaron Gray.

and what he is trying to do here.
Part of the reason Gordon is a star level talent when healthy is because he's actually good at defense. Coaches at the Olympics trials said he was the best guard defender there. Why would he not want to be the lead guard on a defensive oriented team? That plays to his skill set pretty perfectly.

Where are you getting your assumptions from? His only issue on the court is staying healthy.

Lol, just curious, why would Gray not like him?

Because Monty gave his minutes to MBenga just like he gave Thornton's minutes to Willie Green. Gray didn't waste any time leaving the Hornets. He signed with the lowly raptors in the frozen wasteland up north very quickly.
