I am likely much more knowledgeable than you. Played, coached and have a son who was a McDonald's All-American American nominee, 1st team all-state player and college player. I know basketball and I know players when I see them. GORDON is not a one and done. He will need at least 2 to 3 years to be a top draft choice.

I didn't realize you were from West Virginia (I am an idiot and didn't look at your handle), so I was expecting a local kid I would have known.

They play too much the same, with no outside threat. I'm looking at Foreman coming off the bench his senior year, with three 'guards/SF' like Henriquez, Goodwin and Johnson/Bess running with Gordon and French up front. Pure speculation on my part, but let the hype (and second guessing by Soderballs) begin. -Foreman averaged something like 8 and 6 in the Big 10 on a crappy team, if he is healthy and is coming off the bench his senior season we are absolutely loaded Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets compare him to who we have all been comparing him to, Reggie. Reggie averaged 3 and 3 as a sophomore, in A10 play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wgstl Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Anybody seen Zion Williamson's highlight real this season? I asked that because Gordon is probably the most similar player to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Few get to the NBA. The kid is really young......only time will tell. There is just so much talent out there. And it's worldwide competition for those jobs. The kid has not seen the floor lately so that question is better answered in time. So many first round picks don't even make it but for a short time.

My son played a couple years in the league so I know these things - Gordon can be an NBA guy but hopefully later rather than sooner :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
