re: What would you take for Eric Gordon?

Have you been paying any attention to his shooting? As bad as it has been, I have more faith in him developing as a point guard than as an off guard. I think the idea was to have him, like Vasquez, playing next to Gordon.


Just before I hit submit, Rivers drains a 3...

It's not his raw shooting numbers I'm worried about as a rookie. His mentality is to look for his own shot. He is a scorer not a playmaker. That's who the guy is. If the NBA is positonless as people claim it is now, then Rivers is a 2 guard, regardless of his height.

However, I am not opposed to him learning both positions because that will make him a better player down the road.
