Well, those teams are .500 against the Pels in the last week, so...

ETA: Fo real doe, the hate for Gordon comes down to 3 things (some warranted, some not).

1. Contract, it's a killer.
2. His attitude, dude is on record saying he would rather not be here.
3. Injuries, not his fault, but when you combine this with the first 2, it's a recipe for hate and angst.

this hasn't been said since the initial contract signing. he's been a team player since that first year.

As for contract and injury, that was shite luck and it snowballs from there with every fan, even if he plays well

Also not his fault. Can't be mad at a man for wanting money when people will pay it. Plus it's on us that we matched Phoenix's offer.

I think it's a combo of the contract and the injuries.

I don't hate Gordon at all (I don't even care about the wanting to be here comments if they are real), I just think he's an average NBA starter that is injured often and makes a lot more than he's worth.
