Eric Gordon?

New Orleans Hornets shooting guard Eric Gordon says he excited about the prospect of having Anthony Davis as a teammate, but it won’t stop his plans to listen to offers in free agency this summer. New Orleans Times-Picayune

With him now saying he will listen to offers would anyone be interested in the bobcats offering him a contract? He avg 20ppg and 3 ast over the last 2 seasons. I think he could be a interesting guy to look at for the team, he is a true scorer that we desperately need. He can shoot drive and pass, plays solid defense. Question is what is he worth? how much would we have to pay to get him here and is it worth a thought?

I wanted to make a thread about this earlier also.

If MJ is not greedy and wanna spend some money, Gordon would be a nice addition. Great shooter and could be a veteran for our young team. We could also build a team around Gordon. The only thing is, he's a RFA which NO could match any offers giving to him. Which they probably will.

Our starting fives could change dramatically if we sign Gordon and do well in the draft. Imagine:

PG Kemba

SG Gordon

SF Kidd-Gilchrist

PF Maggette

C. Biyombo

maggette wouldn't last two games at pf, and biyambo would be done in 6 weeks. its not about their abilities, its about their physical capabilities to withstand those positions

biyambo may grow into a center, but we really don't know anything about him yet other than he can block shots like a 10 foot spider

    • The good news is that we are pretty uniquely well established to address all of our needs this season. We have $14m real cap space, and something like $40m in trade deadline cap space. Not sure exactly how that works out. But, we have the room to absorb any bad contracts. With recent rule changes regarding retention, that went into effect this season, we now have a huge advantage in the trade market.  On top of that, while we do have obvious needs, we also have a glut of talent in certain areas that we struggle to find ice time for. We are over-stocked on scrappy talented lil-guys, strong defensively sound 3rd liners and shutdown left shot dmen. Whether it's a package or separate deals, idk. But, one of each from Stank/Blake/Nads, Erob/Carrier/KK/Jank, and Walker/Nystrom; throw in some 1st round picks (and frankly any other prospects they want) and we should be able to come out with a 1b to pair with Bussi and either a 2c with size or a 2c and size.   TL/DR We got the money, you got the stuff?
    • I don’t  think 6’4 was ever considered small or undersized. Baby hands tho, yes that was his thing That’s an interesting idea, like an optical illusion? Sounds like you have personal experience with this! 
    • in the 25' draft the Carolina Panthers had hired Brandt Tillis someone who actually understood how to build a successful team & build through the draft .  this team was yes mismanaged for years prior to Brandt Tillis joining the team in 25' & rarely done anything right in the draft outside occaionaly getting lucky on an UDFA such as Jalen Coker who's dad coincidentally happened to be a huge Carolina Panthers fan, hint hint  ...just saying
