Gordon officially makes U.S. roster 

Post#1 » by RiversideClips » Mon Aug 23, 2010 3:55 am

One day, one cut to go & Eric Gordon just might make the U.S. team. If he does, I think the Clippers will reap the benefits of his new experiences. Not only does E.J. look trimmed down, he looks like he fits right in.
Hopefully, he will take this opportunity to take leadership of the Clips and run the team like he is one of the premiere players in the league.
Way to go E.J. this is a great accomplishment.

I think this will be a great experience of EJ, it is usually a good experience for the players that participate.
I've been an LA Clipper fan since 1998 and that will never change. I hate our new logo and jerseys!

Congrats to EJ on making the roster. It should be a great experience for him and make him a better player. I'm looking forward to seeing a more confident Gordon on the Clippers next season.

I was surprised that Rondo didn't make the team until I saw he pulled out himself. Congrats to EJ, make us proud.

I'm so excited for this. I was really worried about him being the final cut. This is going to be a great experience for him, and will hopefully benefit the Clippers in the long run.

This is going to be great for his own development. I'm expecting Gordon to have a career season.
