Nice to see him out there working. :banana:

He has talent, just needs to put it together.

Can't play PF, no post moves or scoring ability vs NBA bigs
Can't play SF, sucks ass at basketball

Unfortunately I think he's a bust

So what you are really saying is you've never actually watched him play?


He was further along than I expected this year, his handles and passing is what makes me think he will find a role in the NBA and what I see as separating him from other "tweeners". Has a great attitude as well and is still so young.

Needs to work on creating his shot. He's like an empty canvas.

I got high hope with Gordon. But hopefully he will not be the next Joe Alexander.

You're talking out your ass. He's faster than most SF's and stronger than a lot of PFs at barely 19 years old. He reminds me of Tim Thomas

[wally_world]

He has lots more opportunities to prove he's not a bust. Shot a good % across the board for a 19 year old rook, good motor, plays D, athletic, rebounds. He'll be fine.

Very poor man's griffin with better defense.

Seeing the way Blake has been playing, and the fact that the only knock on him is defense - that's not bad at all

That's true.


Only that he was picked at 4...

You expect a little more than a productive role player at that pick.

Exum >>> Gordon

Gordon looks like he knows his way around another mans pen1s though :oldlol:

In the same sense that Rick Brunson is a very poor man's Chris Paul with better strength, sure.

Nope Spud Webb is a poor man's Chris Paul without the basketball talent.

so shawn marion? that's cool

[Fallen Angel]

He's not strong enough to be Blake. Look at Griffin's legs then look at Gordon.

He's not a good enough scorer to be Matrix.

Gordon right now is a very young Josh Smith.

lol
shawn marion wasn't even in the nba at 19

[Fallen Angel]

Gordon needs those tree trunks of legs that LeBron and Blake have that allow them to guard PFs in the post as well as battle for rebounds.

Without that I can't see him as an effective PF. And of course he's not a good enough shooter or passer to play significant minutes at SF. It'll be a couple of years until he gets his body and skillset to a point that he can get starter minutes.

Name me another starting PF his size without great lower body strength. Oh you can't? Okay.

[poido123]

Dipo was a good pick, Gordon won't reach the heights of a number 4 pick I'm sorry...

[Jameerthefear]

i just showed that he's working on his shooting it's a good start. that's why ur post is dumb

[Fallen Angel]

Because every player that works on a jumpshot turns into a reliable in-game shooter...

Don't ever talk to me again about basketball, children like you don't understand the game like how me and other veteran analysts.

[wally_world]

Who would u have picked over him? Assuming Payton still gets picked where he did. Randle? Not a good fit beside Vuc, and we haven't seen enough of him anyway. Vonleh is the only other logical pick, and again, has proved much less than Gordon as well.

He's might not live up to being the 4th pick, but right now it definitely doesn't seem he'll be a bust. The draft was top-3 heavy anyway with a big drop-off after Wiggins/Jabari/Embiid.

This. Payton is better than exum and Gordon will be better than mr can't shoot or finish in the paint randle

Marcus Smart was my safe pick for the 1st PG off the board.

Dante Exum if you drafted on potential.

[Fallen Angel]

If Orlando did draft a PG then they would likely have kept Dario Saric.

his passing is pretty good for a tweener.

I didnt watch him much this year but based on watching him in college, I think if he develops a solid spot up 3, he could be a great rooe player, defending multiple positions, handling the ball.

He could be a really versatile player I a couple years

there's absolutely no reason to believe AG can't become a, hell, draymond green type. except he's 10 times quicker and more athletic and bigger.
