Gordon's mediocre defense is disappointing to me. A guy with his physical tools should be one of those rare defend-1-to-5 guys but he just doesn't have the instincts or the interest to be that kind of player.
Agree 100%
Gordon might not have a shooter's touch, but he could dominate in other ways. Instead he is largely invisible.
If he's smart he could find a very productive role as a Shaun Marion type player.
That’s disrespectful to Shawn Marion lol. I mean, he was a 4x All-Star
I think Gordon could be very good if he played within himself. Keep in mind Marion had Steve Nash feeding him the ball. There was no need or point to forcing possessions.
Gordon really hasn't played with any hood distributors at all. It is pretty crazy actually.
Doesn’t seem like Gordon has a strong motor. Seems like a finesse version of Blake Griffin.
I think Gordon moves better laterally, though. But yeah, their wingspan and height are near identical.
But again, offensively Griffin had CP3 to feed him the ball.
Gordon has had Fulton and a bunch of third stringers
