Ben Gordon? 

Post#1 » by canucklife21 » Sat Feb 4, 2012 4:31 pm

As mentioned in previoues post i feel Ben Gordon would be a great fit in minny. It had came to my attention once someone mentioned it and i havent stopped thinking about it since. With brandon knight there future but more of a scoreing guard and they oddly resigned stuckey and gave me a very good extention, i dont see gordon in there future plans. what do you guys think, of possibly adding gordon and what would we offer for him? Yes gordon has been mia last couple of years however with the league noticeing the fine play of wolves i dont see why a player like him or mayo would want to join our up and coming team. Share your thoughts.

The Wolves are in dire need of a legitimate starting SG, but Ben Gordon is waaaay down my list of candidates.

Ben Gordon = Titanic
Gordon's contract = iceberg

I'm kinda stumped with this analogy.

Wouldn't the Wolves be the Titanic and Ben Gordon's contract be the iceberg? Ben Gordon's contract sinks the ship?

Ben Gordon would be nice addition...He is a clutch scorer, he's a great 3pt shooter, he's a veteran, and he only has 2yrs left on his contract...Chris Broussard stated last month that Dumars was interested in Beasley...

Based on my dumbass former roommate from Chicago 3 years ago screaming "BEN JORDAN!" at the TV, I'm going to have to pass on this.

Poor guy.

My ex had an irrational hate towards Leo, for what it's worth. I found it funny. I have an irrational hate towards Jonny Depp. I hate that bitch.

Wait, I change my mind, I wanna be Ioan Gruffud, the coast guard who heard Kate Winslet's whistle and saved her. He went on to marry Jessica Alba in Fantastic 4 8-)

On serious note, I don't think I want Gordon. His contract is pretty bad. What if we try to trade for Mayo? We'll have a good scoring PG and we'll be seeing lilojmayo posting here.
