A healthy Gordon changes the team dynamic completely. Guys that are liabilities on offense can become useful role players and the perimeter defense would improve a great deal. It's not time to jump on board the tank until they tell us in mid December that Gordon needs surgery. And even then you don't tank by pulling Davis, you tank because this team without Gordon isn't all that good.

This.

I might jump aboard the tank if we're at the Allstar break and Gordon is still out. I believe a whole host of issues will be mitigated/eliminated with a productive Gordon on the court night in and night out.

Stupid to think we should tank at this point. That's like saying the saints should begin to tank after losing week 1 and 2 with brees injured, but due back in week 4.
