Re Draft of 2010

When is it time to call a spade a spade already? Sure, he might turn into something, but he was terrible tonight and had a negative impact on the game. His only positive stat was 2 rebounds in 18 minutes. The rest? 0-1, 0 pts, 0 asts, 1 TO, 4 PFs, +/- of -1. He was the only player in the starting lineup that wasn't double-digits in +/- and he didn't bring anything statistically or defensively. Granted, he had NO BUSINESS being matched up against Vince Carter, but come on.

I'll be the first in line to get my helping of crow when it's time. But he's been terrible.

Gordon, if you're reading this; just kidding. You'll be great, keep your head up.

I don't think he was terrible at all. I do agree that his impact was pretty much nothing other than maybe saving CJ Miles some energy so he could have a good game off the bench! I'm not at all saying Gordon will be a superstar but I just don't really think he's been given a lot of PT and it's definitely shown, especially on a night like this where he's given a chance to start after so many DNPs.

I think we can easily say that he'd be much improved if he got at least 10-15 mpg, but he's not getting that and therefore is very timid in the few minutes he does sporadically get.

I understand as a coach you have to worry about floor/team chemistry and looking at lineups I don't know how it could've worked but last night it would've been nice to have Hayward matched against Reddick and/or QRich so at least he didn't get abused by VCarter and destroy whatever confidence he may be trying to build.

Again worrying about 1 player over the rest of the team and chemistry is not going to happen but it would be nice if he could be put in position match up wise to gain some confidence.
