re: Gordon back to Clippers a possibility? (not for CP3)

Yes, Jordan is immature and overpaid. But if you don't trust Gordon (not saying that I don't), this is a reasonable deal. It's the Bledsoe extension that would worry me more.

Here is Jordan/Chandler comparison through 5 years

They are, by the numbers, the same player (or Jordan with a slight edge) outside of Jordan's woeful FT%. Not saying Jordan ever comes close to that level, but big men take time. No one was anticipating Chandler to become who he is.

I agree with those that said he isn't a Monty/Dell player. But I'd trust this Pelicans organization to get more out of him than LAC and VDN have. If it doesn't work out, he's an expiring next year.
