LOL I know I don't wanna make fun of people's stuttering but it's almost like something he does on purpose. I know a lot of people like Goff but I find him kinda brash and cocky and it just rubs me the wrong way. It's not a great approach. It's one thing to be sure of yourself but don't come off like an a-s-s-h-o-l-e. I think he learns it from Bernstein.

:lol: An an an an an - you just did an entire Goff podcast. :lol:

When he hosts alone, he loves to bait and insult the audience, I assume he gets it from Bernstine too.

For those saying its not possible, it is, its just not likely for the same reason most trades aren't likely to go through. If Gordon said he wouldn't resign than the Clipps may be looking at offers and it makes sense for the Bulls to put their hat in the ring. The fact that its the Clipps makes it very plausible that Gordon wants out. Even Griff made a comment during th all star break that he may consider leaving to play with talented players at some point.

The only way I see this is that they would want Noah and feel they can get a good SG. We would do this so we can use Asik on the cheap.

What a joke of a franchise


To be fair, they traded a pick likely to be #10 or so to upgrade from Baron Davis to Mo Williams which is a considerable talent and age upgrade going forward. They ended up getting screwed by that move, but I thought it was a nice trade for them at the time. It just goes to show why you always put protection on the pick.

2012 was protected already.

While he COULD do that, it's incredibly far fetched to think he WOULD do that.

Gordon hasn't even been an all star yet. The vast majority of players who pull that move are not only 6-7 years in the league, but also guys soon to be coming off max contracts who have been to multiple all star games and, at the very least, the playoffs.

Not to mention his first year in FA he will be RFA, not UFA, which makes it even harder still.

Plus, he's playing with Blake Griffen.

Just doesn't make sense that he would try and force his way out at this stage. Even if it is the Clippers.

Oh I agree, its not the most likely of things, but at the same time I wouldnt be totally shocked. If he gets a sign and trade deal than he gets his money and his preferred team. He may be a RFA but after that he becomes a UFA right? If so than he does have some leverage to get out and get his pay day. Everything I have read is that the Clipps are a mess of an organization starting with the owner so you never know.

If they were to lose Jordan in FA, then i think Noah would be the piece they would need.

Currently though, we got nothing.

It doesn't matter if Gordon says he won't re-sign with the Clippers. Unless restricted free agency is killd in the new CBA, the Clippers will still have the right to match any offer he gets.

Zero reason for them to deal Gordon. He's their most valuable piece after Blake Griffin and a Top 10 SG.

It's not going to happen guys first thing it's Jason Goff who is the same one from last summer that say "Wade is going to Chicago it's imminent" or some ****.

Not that I believe that in the first place I even call him out on twitter, and that damn fool blocks me for it. He is probably the most unreliable source/person or whatever to rely on some information the same person probably don't know a true definition of "imminent" really is or just be an idiot.

If they're looking at a smallish backcourt then I think Steph Curry is a more realistic target (although neither is very realistic). Steph a bit more however because he seemed to fall out of favor a bit with their GM (and obviously with their ex-coach Keith Not So Smart) more or less because of the defensive deficiencies of their starting backcourt. Of course we'd have somewhat of the same issues here but since we're strong defensively, it may work out.

Neither player is very good defensively but Gordon does have a 6'9 wingspan (to 6'4 for Curry). Anyway, there's no way the Clips are breaking up the core of Blake and Gordon. They'll both be there a long, long time.

Well he's not just wrong he's an ahole about being wrong.

Kudos to you for calling him out. I imagine he spends a lot of time blocking people if he blocks them for stating the obvious.

EG is a solid defender, definitely above average.

idk what you guys are talking about, he's a bit undersized, but was Team USA's best perimeter defender in the FIBA championships. Hopefully the Clips like Noah, because we can survive with Asik or Taj in there.

There was a lot of **** going around in the summer, they pretty much knew that something that no one expected was going to go down and with Wade having the 2nd meeting the Bulls, it looked like a real possibility, I firmly believe if Lebron stayed in Cleveland, Wade & Bosh were coming here.

Very true..Eric Gordon made Team USA last summer because of his defense, and his shooting. He plays really good on-ball defense.

He would be the best fit next to DRose.

I'd be thrilled if we could acquire Eric Gordon, but I can't imagine a single way we would acquire him. I suppose if we were willing to trade either Deng or Noah it might be possible, but even so I still can't really imagine it. I guess if we made a trade before/during the draft we could pass them three first round picks (our two low picks plus the Charlotte pick). That's not even close to enough value for EG though.

I disagree with no we can't not at this moment no unless we get Dwight Howard(and no I do not think we get Dwight Howard.)

I may tend to trade Asik or Taj for Eric Gordon but not at the expense of Noah.

Interesting.

I don't know about Wade & Bosh coming here I don't think they would if Lebron decide to stay in Cleveland I think most likely Wade will stay in Miami and Bosh will follow with Wade. But I guess we will never know
