Smith: Could life be better for Rockets' Eric Gordon? Yes, if he were traded
If auditioning for an NBA contender, Eric Gordon, right, has put together a solid run in his last 10 games, averaging 17.9 points, 4.1 assists and 48.1 percent shooting.Gordon makes more money in one year than you and I will make in our lifetimes.
Well, yeah, I’ll feel a little sorry for a vet’s vet who deserves a better basketball life at this point in his career.The Los Angeles Clippers, who are far better than LeBron James’ losing Lakers this season but are still staring up at the best in the Western Conference? Gordon is averaging a respectable 13.2 points, 2.9 assists and 2.1 rebounds in 30.2 minutes while shooting 43.9 percent from the floor, 34.7 percent on 3-pointers and 81.2 percent from the free-throw line.But, my gosh, has the team-first Gordon become out of place on a team aiming for the NBA’s worst record for the third consecutive campaign.
In Adam Silver’s watered-down NBA, posting a .241 winning percentage — is it really a “winning percentage” if you don’t even win 25 percent of the games you play? — doesn’t even guarantee a No. 1 overall pick.
