That's what you get from a guy on the veteran minimum

Why not show when EG struggles instead of elevating him when he plays good once in a blue moon?
He is averaging 11.9 points and 2.2 assists shooting 39.1% from three with the highest volume on the team. He plays 29 mpg.
His NET rating is +3.3 so he is clearly a positive player on the court.
He is capable of EXPLODING in some games and just win a game for you. Of course he can not do it on every game, but not every bench player is capable of that. That's why I was talking about a great and efficient game from him. He was huge in the last one and our best player only behind Book.
And don't forget that he is on a minimum deal. Crazy production for a guy on that type of contract.

Think the problem with Gordon is that his stinkers are shockingly bad, if his shot is off then he offers nothing. Overall production for his contract is fine, can you imagine if you had to rely on Saben for the first guard off the bench all season long ?

Re: Finally Eric Gordon is here
Another great performance by Gordon. 24 min , 2 points and 1/4 FG against tank team.
I think KJ Martin or TJ Warren would be better than him. Even if he is better than their in offense , it would be nothing advantage when he shots brick after brick. I prefer their because they are can add us , little impact in defense than Eric

One good game, two bad games, one good game, two bad games. Rinse and repeat. But don’t tell Saber this he won’t stand for such mockery.

He will not score 20 points coming from the bench on every single game, that's why he averages close to 12 points per game with good percentages from three.
He isn't gonna have always a big role and shots available for him, but he can step up if one of Book/Beal/KD is out.
Every bench perimeter scorer has low scoring games. Malik Monk is probably the favorite to win 6th MOTY and he has had a bunch of those games this season.
Gordon is doing his job and he is the last of our problems.
