Rumor is Gordon is Rocky Mountain High in general.

Scottie Pippen used to love a cup of coffee before games.

He’s endearing himself to the fanbase. You know if he was traded here he’d have said the same thing about the Cs haha.

With Drummond possibly signing here, I keep think how great it would have been to bring in Gordon too.  Had they traded away TT and Theis, a first, and Nesmith or Langford.  They could have stayed under the hard cap, but would have been in the luxury tax.

Eight man rotation of:
Drummond
Gordon
Tatum
Brown
Kemba

RWill
Fournier
Smart

I think this team could have had a chance to contend.

Oh well.

I don't know that he is wrong.  I think he is a pretty solid compliment to Jokic.  I'm not really sure how he would have fit here.  I'd have loved to acquire him, but him between Tatum and Thompson/Williams may not have been great.

I’d want to play next to Jokic too.
