Does anyone follow John Reid on twitter?

He just posted some tweets not too long ago about the Eric Gordon situation and he made some good points.

His ability to sit on the fricking bench in a suit? I'm a big fan of his talents, but get a fricking grip on reality, man.

Just looking at some of the tweets from 247, Reid, Gerrity, and Hardwood Proxy really sent me over the edge. Gordon bitched about being the only guy on the team who could get his own shot then he bitched about them drafting Rivers. Did Eric think maybe they wanted another player at his position because he's missed a full NBA season worth of games the last two years?

I really wonder, if we had drafted Leonard at 10, would EG be bitching still? What would he bitching about? I'm leaning towards yes for the first question, and "not being appreciated" for the second.

gordon sounds like a woman. bitches to hear himself bitch. to be honest, if PHX gave us gortat and marshall I'd start jerking it. if they threw in a 1st next year it'd be even better

He's white and he's going to take too long to develop.
Gordon's a good player but if we're trying the Spurs and Thunder model then he's not the centerpiece for that. Durant, Robinson, Duncan, even fricking Westbrook would never behave like this. Even people completely defending him on this say we need to baby him more, well name me one major player on the Spurs and Thunder who you would ever say that about?

It's gonna be awkward as frick if/when Gordon is still a Hornet next year.
Posted on 7/7/12 at 3:38 am to saintsfan22
Gordon is being a baby back bitch. But, for us to compete soon, we need him to be a baby back bitch that will be happy in NOLA and score. I don't want him to poison 23 and rivers

frick that. i don't want marshall. we have enough guards, we need bigs.
gortat, morris and a 1st or they can get the frick and i'm keeping his disgruntled arse.

meh... I'd prefer gortat and marshall... i followed MM for a long time and I'm just meh on him. I don't think he'll ever be like a 14-10 guy TBH
Posted on 7/7/12 at 3:47 am to Elleshoe
marshall is meh as well though. facilitator yes, but isn't a scorer.

I'm ok not trading him immediately if there are no good deals, but unless he does a complete 180 and starts drinking the Koolaid once he's with the team and playing rather than trying to get a deal, I would ship him off way before his deal expires. This shite's just going to come up again in 3 years when he uses the player option Phoenix is giving him and he'll want our 5 year deal and we won't give it to him.

Did your agent not tell you what we talked about?

How is he being a bitch by truthfully answering questions he is being asked?
shite had he said "no comment" you'd be calling him the same thing.
Dude can't win at this point
