what's that from? I thought it was confirmed they were starting Payton, Fournier, Harkless, Oquinn, Vucevic. Not that it really matters

"Gordon got the start at small forward on Tuesday night in his first game alongside of point guard Luke Ridnour, shooting guard Evan Fournier, power forward Tobias Harris and center Nikola Vucevic."

He's listed as day to day. He finished the practice after he hurt his knee. Should be fine soon.

was just saying to my mate that his handle looked decent then he runs straight in for the offensive foul :roll:

I just can't see why they took him at #4, I just can't.

Dude wasn't very impressive at the UoA, and has nothing that stands out.

At least he hits freebies.

I'm reserving my anger until he's been in the league a couple of years. He was the youngest in the draft and is still really raw. I like his potential defensively but really if he doesn't develop some kind of offensive game it's a really stupid move. Passing Exum I don't mind as Payton to me looks like he is just as good a prospect but I would have thought Randle would be above Gordon on the big board. Guess time will tell.

Agreed on Gordon. I have to see if he develops because right now he's just an athlete

Harris looks good
Hard to tell with him though, he looks good now but he's a streaky shooter. His Jumper looks altered though, looks different to how I remember it.

Aaron Gordon will be a bust. I thought he'd be a Shawn Marion caliber player but looks like he'll be more a Derrick Williams type. Just another player lacking basic fundamentals who's gotten by strictly with athleticism.

Good news is, he's super young. Could be wrong about all of this.

Payton and Harkless can push well. We have the potential for some really up tempo line ups
HylianNightmare

Elfrid Payton is the truth. I'm on the hype wagon

Payton was such a great pick at #10, dude just is a menace.

I just have no idea on him. I can see some positives on him and I think one advantage he has over Williams is he has a better handle and can pass better which will help him if he moves to small forward (like orlando said they would try). But he still needs to learn SO much. He's 2-3 years away being NBA ready really.

Yulp. He has just as much potential as Exum and is the better player right now.

I agree. Playing at the NBA level definitely has it's benefits but fundamentals are learned at the collegiate level. It's not even that he's raw, dude is straight up underdeveloped. Dude can jump out the roof though, so he's at least got that going for him.

Looks quicker to go into his motion too, he used to look a bit slow and staggered on his longer range shots.

Chalmers is really struggling right now.

Ennis has been playing really well, he was beasting in the summer league games and so far in the preseason. But that lineup above is just so terrible at rebounding.
