Do you really thing Gordon is going to make that much of an impact?

Adding a legit 20ppg, I'd say yes he would.

It's a small sample size, but he did last season, and his skill set really is the missing piece the way this roster has been constructed.

i absolutely do. having a true scorer will open up so much. i promise you this team will look much different with eg on the court.

Weren't we 7-2 with him last year? Adding a legit player who can create his own offense and plays very good defense will make a HUGE difference. He'll also help open up better looks for guys like Vasquez, Ryno, Rivers, and Davis.

10 more wins would put us in some rarified air of truly shittiest teams.

I think we win 25 or so.

No. That's with him. I think we win 25-30 games total if he comes back and plays the rest of the year within the next week or two.

If he misses any more significant time or doesn't play...yeah 10 more wins could be right.

I'm just looking for individual progress for certain players this year.

Yeah I meant to reply to the OP but I accidently hit you. I didn't feel like going back and just rolled with it. Sorry for the confusion.

Anyway its no secret. We suck, especially without EG. I kind of thing we will suck a bit with him. He will need to work himself back into shape, and this team is just young.

What about the team without Gordon makes you think it'll win 20 more regardless?

The team is competitive enough as is minus some games I feel, adding a legit reliable scorer will make all the difference especially during stretches of games where role players aren't making their shots.

We won what, 21 last year? mostly without Gordon

I don't think this team is as good as last year's team, or at least they sure aren't playing like it, so I'd say around 25 with the full season sounds about right.

Unless Gordon actually plays, then like around 30-35.
