We could have been in this game if Brooks and Humphries both didn't pick the same night to have their worst game of the season.

It's so tough watching this team, seriously. Just so much lack of talent, hustle, and straight up scrubs. Too many D-Leaguers and 10 day people.

If we want Eric Gordon, we'd have to overpay. Not sure if he'd be a good fit with Deron Williams, if he's staying.

How is a professional team shooting 6% from the field in a quarter?

So we're tanking right? Because it sure looks like it from this display.

The fit would be fine the question is whether he's worth a long term investment given his knee issues. Gordon has never been able to stay healthy during his short NBA career but when he has been able to he's been one of the top shooting guards in the game...

Yeh was just looking at the situation and thinking what big splash could we make. I loved Brooks game at the start but as the season has gone on he has failed to show me how he would work with Lopez and Williams long term because he is so bad off the ball.

Id trade him and Wallace with our Houston pick and see what we can pick up.

If we front loaded a deal for Gordon with loads of cash would NOH be able to match it with the NBA owning them and trying not to add salary to the roster??

Worth a try, I just dont know what way a RFA offer works, what is the max he can earn? can we pay an insane up front and use Proky's cash to strong arm the Hornets not to match?

Sorry to bring this up in the game thread but the game was depressing the hell out of me and I was trying to find a way to bring in a top bracket player in the summer to Brookyln.

I want no part of Gordon and his glass body. He is going to command a ton of money, and with our luck and injuries, he will be hurt in no time.

I just want to see a healthy team play is that all to ask for i want to see the desired lineup of

D-Will
Brooks
G-Wall
Hump
Lopez

i just want to see this team fdor a week at least this whole NBA season for us has been an injury disaster. When the hell is Brook Lopez supposed top be coming back anyway? Didn't he just roll his ankle like how bad was that he needs to be out 2 weeks.
