That's interesting. They must be panicking a bit with injuries/losing streak.

$25million per year for a starting backcourt that has played in 101 games combined since last season? Seems like a reach to me. But if they want to get rid of a rookie controlled 6'7" shooter for an injury prone and mopey max player, I'm in.

Vasquez/Mason/Thompson/Anderson/Davis all offense lineup would be a treat to watch.

From Golden State's perspective, I understand why they'd want Gordon's finishing ability. Almost every playoff game comes down to the last few minutes, with the ball in a perimeter players' hands. Its why i didnt like the Rudy Gay trade for Memphis. He's overpaid, but he's one of the best late game scorers in the league and he's already hit 2 or 3 game winners for Toronto. Now they're leaning on Conley? Bayless?

But Gordon's salary and injury history...plus his knee doesn't even look healthy, he's still dragging his leg around.

For the Hornets, it would be great in just about every way. You can put Thompson at the 2 or 3, opens up the draft for us, even more cap room...

I'd be shocked if Golden State did it
