I would NEVER want Eric Gordon on my team at Purdue. Especially considering the situation that we are in now with the way we play together as a team. Solid player, but he doesn't take care of the ball enough, move in an offense enough, or play as part of a team enough for me to ever want Eric Gordon on my team. Give me Bassett and White any day of the week, and twice on Sunday over Eric Gordon.
I concur I do not want any one and dones on Purdue's team, just takes up a scholly for someone who could contribute for 4 years.
turdue will and has had no such problem your run of mill program will never attract such talent
Let us know when Ebanks show up on campus..............
he may or may not. one things for sure - he ain't showing up at turdue.
BANG!

I know some of his deep threes look pretty and its amazing when he shoots from WAY out, but he isn't exactly a great three point shooter. He is very streaky. He is now under 40% from 3 on the season and down to 35% in conference play.
People see 20 points and think he has to be better than everyone else, but he has a lot of flaws in his game and just turns into a running back with his down trying to get to the basket sometimes. Luckily for him, college referees give an aggressive offensive player the advantage over an aggressive defensive player. Its pretty disgusting what he and players like Hansborough get away with. It makes a lot of games nearly unwatchable.
He has had some great games, but there have been nearly 10 games where he has more turnovers than baskets made, which is astonishing given the amount of shots that he takes. There have also been games where he shoots more three throws than field goals attempted. He draws contact well, but also gets more calls than any player that I've seen in college basketball in some time. Then on the other end of the court, the same thing isn't called. More of a knock on the officiating than than Gordon.
He is a good player, but he is extremely inefficient, turns it over at a high rate, doesn't shoot it particularly well from 3, and doesn't do much if the ball isn't in his hands. He doesn't make it very easy for his teammates to get him the ball. With his minutes, and the amount of shots and free throws that he takes, 20 points per game isn't as impressive as one wold think.
good one corky Turdue would KILL to have gordon on their greasy hair team

You are on drugs if you wouldn't want Eric Gordon on your team at Purdue. He doesn't shoot 50% from three, but that probably has a lot to do with the defensive attention he receives. I'm assuming you would call J.J. Redick a good three-point shooter, but he only shot .406 in his career, and he stayed 4 years. I'm sure both him and Gordon would shoot better if they had a lot of clean looks from college range. But shooting .393 isn't exactly unacceptable. Gordon gets a lot of fouls called because he is very explosive and a great finisher. He is the beneficiary of some calls that shouldn't get called, but he also doesn't get a lot of calls that he should. He gets bodied, grabbed, etc. all the time with no calls. He'll drive to hole and have an opponent slide under him and draw the charge. The turnovers and sloppy ballhandling are the only downfalls I see. Occasionally he will drive or fast break out of control, resulting in a charge or turnover. But I'd say he does far more positive for the team than negative. Purdue would take him in a heart beat. Oh, and he's a pretty solid defender too. And what's wrong with scoring from the free throw line? Points are points, I don't care where they come from.
So when Eric Gordon drives in an initiates contact its not a foul? But when the defense use contact to keep Eric Gordon from the lane, its grabbing and bumping and hacking? The defender has every right to a spot that the offensive player has, except when both players are getting there and Gordon loses the ball, the official immediately whistles a foul. Its not just Gordon, its a lot of players. Thats more of a complaint on officials than him, but that will NOT translate to the NBA. He will never go 3-12 in an NBA game and get over 20 points. He gets plenty of open looks that he misses, he usually shoots from so far away the defense can't get out in time. He is an inconsistent 3 point shooter at best. JJ Redick was a quantity shooter, just like Gordon. Players that score 20 a game get built up, but most of the time its because of so many shots that they take and not the quality of their game.
idiot. he's also 19 years old. get a clue moron
LOL, if you could get your mouth of his dick long enough to look at the stat line, you might actually not have such a man crush on him. http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/teams/stats?teamId=84stat line look just fine to me. no one on turdue's is even near as good. owned
I guess you stopped at points.....and definately missed the A/T ratio.......

Yeah, just the top rated recruiting class in the Big Ten last year. We will never get any recruits. I bet all four of our freshman score more points and win more games in their career than Eric Gordon will at IU. Purdue may not be able to land a 5 star recruit, but guess what, we don't need them. Our scrubs and outcasts somehow are tied for 1st place in the Big Ten with MJ, Scottie, and the rest of the Chicago Bulls. What are you guys going to do without Phil Jackson though?
saw plenty of services that ranked IU's class higher. and BTW - why does Turdue's 08 and 09 classes look like dog shit? can you say FLUKE?

Nice moral victory......Ebanks isn't there....and no five star in there right mind will show up at IU for 2-3 years......if that.........considered DJ and EJ are the only 2 they've gotten in 6 years, and they'll both be gone next year....I fail to see what you're bragging about.

so you are comparing a PG's stats to a shoot guard???? I could nit pick any stat from any player and say "SEE".
bottom line, he is a much more efficient scorer than any one on turdue.

LOL.....you do know that Lewis Jackson is ranked "85/100" by ESPN right, is in the rivals150 and third best prospect from Illinois?
And that Ryne Smith is ranked 106 on rivals.......6 spots from being the a super "four star" prospect that you have such a boner for?
And to top it all off, this was a needs based class....
The class of 2009 has Byrd (who IU recruited and offered) , Barlow (I admit, kind of a sleeper) and Jeff Robinson who will be a four star by the end (he missed summer AAU with a broken foot and according to rivals (whose word you hold so dear) is looking to be an easy top100 prospect (4 stars). Not to mention, The current ranking of 2009 don't matter anyway, at this point last year Zeller was a "2 star".
So do some fucking research before you spew your bullshit.

“He’s always been a guy — maybe to a fault — he would always try to do what I said. That seems like something simple in coaching, but those are the guys I hang my hat on. We’ve had some guys in our program, we had a couple guys that felt I had a bias towards E’Twaun Moore. And they were right — I do have a bias towards E’Twaun Moore. I like guys that go to class, that are academic All-Americans, that come early, that stay late, that love the game of basketball. I am biased towards those guys. And I’m biased towards Rob Hummel. But I’m also biased towards their habits, their work ethic, and how they carry themselves."
"I’d take him to the ends of the earth — I’d want him playing for me.” - Bo Ryan on Robbie Hummel

I would NEVER want Eric Gordon on my team at Purdue. Especially considering the situation that we are in now with the way we play together as a team. Solid player, but he doesn't take care of the ball enough, move in an offense enough, or play as part of a team enough for me to ever want Eric Gordon on my team. Give me Bassett and White any day of the week, and twice on Sunday over Eric Gordon.
I concur I do not want any one and dones on Purdue's team, just takes up a scholly for someone who could contribute for 4 years.
turdue will and has had no such problem your run of mill program will never attract such talent
Yeah, just the top rated recruiting class in the Big Ten last year. We will never get any recruits. I bet all four of our freshman score more points and win more games in their career than Eric Gordon will at IU. Purdue may not be able to land a 5 star recruit, but guess what, we don't need them. Our scrubs and outcasts somehow are tied for 1st place in the Big Ten with MJ, Scottie, and the rest of the Chicago Bulls. What are you guys going to do without Phil Jackson though?
saw plenty of services that ranked IU's class higher. and BTW - why does Turdue's 08 and 09 classes look like dog shit? can you say FLUKE?
LOL.....you do know that Lewis Jackson is ranked "85/100" by ESPN right, is in the rivals150 and third best prospect from Illinois? And that Ryne Smith is ranked 106 on rivals.......6 spots from being the a super "four star" prospect that you have such a boner for? And to top it all off, this was a needs based class.... The class of 2009 has Byrd (who IU recruited and offered) , Barlow (I admit, kind of a sleeper) and Jeff Robinson who will be a four star by the end (he missed summer AAU with a broken foot and according to rivals (whose word you hold so dear) is looking to be an easy top100 prospect (4 stars). Not to mention, The current ranking of 2009 don't matter anyway, at this point last year Zeller was a "2 star". So do some fucking research before you spew your bullshit.
LMAO - you rag on IU for 'only' having 4 5star recruits the last 6 years and yet you brag about some "sleeper" crap ranked in the 100's???
Just turn off your computer now - that will make the pain of your complete ownage dissapate.

I know some of his deep threes look pretty and its amazing when he shoots from WAY out, but he isn't exactly a great three point shooter. He is very streaky. He is now under 40% from 3 on the season and down to 35% in conference play.
People see 20 points and think he has to be better than everyone else, but he has a lot of flaws in his game and just turns into a running back with his down trying to get to the basket sometimes. Luckily for him, college referees give an aggressive offensive player the advantage over an aggressive defensive player. Its pretty disgusting what he and players like Hansborough get away with. It makes a lot of games nearly unwatchable.
He has had some great games, but there have been nearly 10 games where he has more turnovers than baskets made, which is astonishing given the amount of shots that he takes. There have also been games where he shoots more three throws than field goals attempted. He draws contact well, but also gets more calls than any player that I've seen in college basketball in some time. Then on the other end of the court, the same thing isn't called. More of a knock on the officiating than than Gordon.
He is a good player, but he is extremely inefficient, turns it over at a high rate, doesn't shoot it particularly well from 3, and doesn't do much if the ball isn't in his hands. He doesn't make it very easy for his teammates to get him the ball. With his minutes, and the amount of shots and free throws that he takes, 20 points per game isn't as impressive as one wold think.
good one corky Turdue would KILL to have gordon on their greasy hair team
I would NEVER want Eric Gordon on my team at Purdue. Especially considering the situation that we are in now with the way we play together as a team. Solid player, but he doesn't take care of the ball enough, move in an offense enough, or play as part of a team enough for me to ever want Eric Gordon on my team.

You are on drugs if you wouldn't want Eric Gordon on your team at Purdue. He doesn't shoot 50% from three, but that probably has a lot to do with the defensive attention he receives. I'm assuming you would call J.J. Redick a good three-point shooter, but he only shot .406 in his career, and he stayed 4 years. I'm sure both him and Gordon would shoot better if they had a lot of clean looks from college range. But shooting .393 isn't exactly unacceptable. Gordon gets a lot of fouls called because he is very explosive and a great finisher. He is the beneficiary of some calls that shouldn't get called, but he also doesn't get a lot of calls that he should. He gets bodied, grabbed, etc. all the time with no calls. He'll drive to hole and have an opponent slide under him and draw the charge. The turnovers and sloppy ballhandling are the only downfalls I see. Occasionally he will drive or fast break out of control, resulting in a charge or turnover. But I'd say he does far more positive for the team than negative. Purdue would take him in a heart beat. Oh, and he's a pretty solid defender too. And what's wrong with scoring from the free throw line? Points are points, I don't care where they come from.
So when Eric Gordon drives in an initiates contact its not a foul? But when the defense use contact to keep Eric Gordon from the lane, its grabbing and bumping and hacking? The defender has every right to a spot that the offensive player has, except when both players are getting there and Gordon loses the ball, the official immediately whistles a foul. Its not just Gordon, its a lot of players. Thats more of a complaint on officials than him, but that will NOT translate to the NBA. He will never go 3-12 in an NBA game and get over 20 points. He gets plenty of open looks that he misses, he usually shoots from so far away the defense can't get out in time. He is an inconsistent 3 point shooter at best. JJ Redick was a quantity shooter, just like Gordon. Players that score 20 a game get built up, but most of the time its because of so many shots that they take and not the quality of their game.
idiot. he's also 19 years old. get a clue moron
LOL, if you could get your mouth of his dick long enough to look at the stat line, you might actually not have such a man crush on him. http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/teams/stats?teamId=84stat line look just fine to me. no one on turdue's is even near as good. owned
I guess you stopped at points.....and definately missed the A/T ratio.......
so you are comparing a PG's stats to a shoot guard???? I could nit pick any stat from any player and say "SEE". bottom line, he is a much more efficient scorer than any one on turdue.
LOL yeah, going 2-8 from the field and 15-16 from the line is the defination of efficient.
yeah idiot - that is great - scoring 20 pts on 8 shots is 2.5 pts/shot.
seriously, turn off your computer now.
