EJ is a solid player, but this guy is made of glass

It's a sprained wrist. Step away from the ledge.

I bet this thread goes nowhere near 6 pages. There simply isn't enough room for bitching in here.

Honestly, if anything, this makes me feel slightly better about Gordon's play recently. A sprained wrist could definitely explain some of his struggles with his handle and shot.

Yeah, I'm hoping that the All Star break gives him enough time to straighten out his wrist and back, but it seems like he probably won't be 100% until next season, which doesn't bother me too much.

I would be happy with Granger, Lance Stevenson, and a draft pick. Cause Granger is an expiring contract next yr.

So a near 30 year old with a bad knee, a role player, and about the 20th pick or worse in a weak draft class

better than an overpaid 24 year old with a bad knee, back, wrist and no heart.

Can I trade 7 Hornets fans with sandy vaginas for a Lakers bandwagon fan?

It's a legit concern. If he can't stay healthy, we made a huge mistake giving him a max contact.

I'm not saying that he doesn't want to be here or that we should trade him. But sooner or later he has to start playing consistently

We're in year one of the contract. A little early to panic.

We're only in year one of this contract after a year of a previous contact. And in that year and a half he's hardly played.

As I said in my above post, its not time to panic, but this is concerning. We can't keep blowing this off forever

Isn't this his first non-scheduled missed game since returning?

You're trying to spin this and mock people who are anti Gordon?

This is more proof he's a fragile human being
