Blazers interested in Eric Gordon

[Fez Hammersticks]

The offers are sure to be even more plentiful this summer. Sources close to the situation said Indiana, Phoenix, Portland and Dallas are among the teams with interest in Gordon.

Well, duh! I think he should be option B honestly. I like Gordon.

 

[MickZagger]

I'm down for Gordon. Dynamic scorer, great teammate and still real young. I thought NO was rebuilding around him though.

 

[glazeduck]

Let's be sure our medical staff gets a good look at his knees!

We wouldn't want make a big mistake like investing heavily in someone with injuries...

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

Waste of money.

 

[JfizzleBlazer]

Im happy to hear that. Deron, gordan, hibbert id be ecstatic with any of those three.

How about all 3? Maybe Nash, too!!

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

Well, he has the necessary knee cartilage damage which we need on our team. max contract!

 

[RR7]

I don't understand how a few can bash the Blazers for making moves on guys like Roy and Oden, knowing their injury histories, but then lobby to get Gordon.

What a little 6-3 shrimp of a SG. What have we become, the Portland Midgets?

Hey, you watch your language!

 

[Mediocre Man]

Of course they are interested. He has missed most of the year with a fucking knee injury

 

[Mediocre Man]

He's right. It's little people

see, you mock them for being interested, but have talked about wanting him yourself. This is where you mock them for it, so either way it turns out, you have something to bitch about.

Have I talked about it since he has missed most of the season with a bad knee? I'm not being combative, I just don't think I have

 

[Nikolokolus]

Love his talent, but it's like this team will never learn when it comes to the knee

 

[jlprk]

You can't say shrimp anymore? The mental midgets don't like "retard" either. Makes me hungry for a great big sardine.

Given that his knee surgery was just listed as a clean-up operation, I don't think it's fair to put him in the Brandon Roy/Greg Oden risk category.

Just wait until Bobby Medina and Jay Jensen get their hands on him

 

[RR7]

he's missed 20 or more games the last 3 seasons. 20, 26 and now 61. Why CAN'T we put him in the Roy and Oden category?

Would that make him Roy on steroids?

I dunno, isn't if off steroids when they all start getting injured?

I don't think Oden ever had an injury history when we drafted him..? He had the wrist injury in college and still played well w/ his off hand. He was gonna be a beast.

 

[JfizzleBlazer]

Wtf? Im just happy they are showing interest in the top options this summer. Doesnt mean I think we will get any of them. Would you be happier if we only targeted dj augustins and carl landrys?

Midget is the derogatory word. Not shrimp. I have lots of little people friends. Midget is their n word.

 

[KingSpeed]

Plus you used it as a putdown

 

[PapaG]

Gordon hasn't played more than 62 games since his rookie season.

Any team that offers this guy big money is run by a moron. I guess that puts Portland in the mix, though.

I prefer Imp. My favorite actor plays one right now in a hit HBO series.

At the track I'll go see shrimp cars at shrimp racing.

After they get us to stop saying midget, shrimp is for the next generstion. 60 years from now, comes minnow and sardine. By 100 years from now, they won't let us say tiny, little, or small.

Gordon is going to command a lot of money, this is not a bidding war I want to see the Blazers get caught up in.

(Side note: anyone watch storage wars . . . watched about 6 of those episodes last night on demand. Somehow it sucked me in)
