I'm not an EJ, but I won't be surprised if Dell is working on a trade

It seems like the same people are loving them some Monty and some Erica. Good grief Charlie Brown.

4 of the last 5 and +54 in the last two games with the 2nd youngest team in the NBA, and you're bitching about Monty.

You mean like when his return turned our awful season around and we wound up winning more games in his first 10 or 15 back than we did the entire season previously?

Please go on and explain to me how Phil Jackson would take our D League roster to the playoffs over the last 2 years.

I'm not a GM, just a fan who has watching and playing sports since I was 5. I know what I don't want. Doesnt matter what sport at any level. That is an overpaid or underpaid player who doesn't want to be here on my team.

What can we do about it now? Cut our loses? You tell me, do we cut our loses and trade him for much less than we gave ,or do we keep him and deal with this shite every week?

I think it's the latter. Don't want players like that on my team. Don't want em. Can't win with em. Can't coach with em. Can't do it. Mike Singletary could have been talking about Gordon.

3rd worst record last year and on pace to repeat. I'm ecstatic about that, aren't you?

Both sides need to chill out.

We don't know about Eric's long term health and we don't know Monty's "greatness" for lack of a better word as a coach. We are in wait and see mode, people making rash judgements over these last two season are idiots.

You're right. Xavier Henry, Al-Farouq Aminu, Lance Thomas, Gustavo Ayon, Marco Belinelli, Roger Mason, Brian Roberts, and Austin Rivers should all be balling on championship contenders right now.

They're 6th worst right now (tied with 2 other teams) and are 13-11 since Gordon came back. In what manner are we even close to being "on pace" for the 3rd worst record in the NBA?

But me, I'm done with it. frick that dude. I really hope the front office can try and rectify what they hopefully understand to have been a serious mistake on their part and try and find a suitable trade partner and get rid of the little pussy girl.


If he's still on the team and not living up to his contract in 3 years then you can look at it like that, but the team wasn't doing jack shite with his salary slot this year and probably next year, so why not sign Gordon and either he works or you trade him rather than sitting on empty cap space for 2 years?

I'll give you 1/2 a pass on that one.

He's actually shooting a worse overall FG% and 3PT% with them, so he definitely doesn't fill the "balling" requirement.

I just don't understand some people. This team was horrendous before his return and has played over .500 since. We are still the second youngest team in the NBA. This season is and always was a lost season. Why risk him and his health this year? Why not give him one extra day off over the All Star break? If we have this record at this point next year then everyone can bitch. Until then, I think we all need to take a step back and realize we have played very well for a team this young since the return of EG.

So you think this team minus Gordon could attract 2 Max level Free agents? I don't.

Oh well, tied for 6 th worst makes it sooo much better.

What key Free agents have the Hornets signed since Monty has been here? Not trades, free agents.
