Guys wishing they had Aaron Gordon and me thinking he is a fossil in the modern NBA

Aaron Gordon is athletic, can rebound and is adequate from three so I think he is more than relevant in today's NBA.

My Dad (orthopedic surgeon) said sounds like six weeks for Frank.

Suns are playing to Nuggets level which is always dangerous.

I hope the Suns decide to play defense in the 2nd half.

He isn't a floor spreader at all. He isn't remotely a max player with his 0.6 win shares for 3 straight years.

He would be a nice player at Bridges money but he is massively overpaid now

Everyone not named Jokic on the Nuggets is overpaid. MPJ and his 78-year-old back getting the max? Yeesh

Aaron Gordon has a complete game even if he is not always spectacular.

He signed for 4 years/$92 million so this is Bridges type money.

He is overpaid, but I disagree that he is a fossil. He is still a useful player.

The Suns need to quit playing cat and mouse and put the Nuggets away.

I mean the style of player, not him specifically.

You either need to be a very good floor spacer at the 4 or have an elite skill. Gordon is a proto 4 like a decade ago.

Ayton can't catch a break with the fouls. It's a concern going forward.

Suns have fallen in love with the three while Nuggets take it inside.

Bridges hits the baseline floater. Nice to see.

You only have to see all those empty courtside seats to see how nuclear Sarver is right now. Until this investigation is done no business is going to want to be associated with the Suns
