Eric Gordon is the reason we're strapped with an unbalanced roster. I like the Holiday/Tyreke backcourt combo. Plenty of size, ball handling, and scoring ability. You can either acquire players when they are available, or put the rebuild on hold until you unload Eric Gordon and hope that a similar level of talent is available then.

I understand why people think a $35 million backcourt is a bad idea. I don't understand why people can't see this team is a Gordon dump or optout away from getting the pieces they need to be very good very soon.

I think a lot of people on here have just accepted that Gordon isn't going anywhere. He has been on the block for over a year and there haven't been any credible rumors on him in a long time. I think we are just stuck with that group for a little bit. We just got to hope they turn it around or learn how to mesh somehow..

The problem is assuming that you can get any value for Gordon (or even not take a shite contract in return) and/or he opts out.
