Welcome to Our Hoosier Board!

Most of the posters here have been around for nearly a decade now. You'll find their knowledge and insight to be second to none. We have a really strong community and value everyone's opinions.

Feel free to jump into any thread and voice your opinion with conviction. We love heated debates and even some fanbase ribbing from time to time. We pride ourselves on the lack of moderation needed to make this board successful.

Please remember that we have been around many years and have an astute ability to tell the difference between an immature, childish, trash-talking troll and a passionate fan voicing his or her opinion. It is at the discretion of Jazen and myself whether any moderating actions should be taken at any given time. It's a very, very rare thing. In other words, no worries....you'll be fine!

Cheers,
sirbrianwilson

He would have been better playing overseas for a year and then getting re-drafted by ANY other NBA team.

Worst owner in the NBA
Worst coach in the NBA
Cancerous player around him
Culture of losing
Second fiddle team in LA


they are getting blown out every game and yet the coach still refuses to play him in garbage time? He's a lotto pick.

Maybe he can call Jay Edwards and get some good advice....

When a player isn't playing there are only three "facts" that can explain why:

1) Disciplinary issues
2) Injury
3) He just isn't as good as the other 11 players on his team.

Anything else is just excuses. You be the judge on which of the three facts explain his 1.3 ppg.

he is getting a whopping 3 minutes per game. that has something to do with his 1.3 ppg. he is also playing for one of the dumbest coaches in the nba. fucking ricky davis is getting way too much time.

wrong on all 3 counts. I highly doubt the last place clippers have 12 players better than a lottery pick.

and once again - why the FUCK are you on this thread???? why do you turdue homos hijack IU thread after IU thread?


go back to the turdue board and circle jerk with your fellow sperm gobblers about Larry Bird Homely and why he's the greatest turdue player ever.

UB,

I am very surprised you feel such a bond to defend super Gordon. He used IU as a one year stop. He was not a team leader nor team player. He demostrated flashes of brilliance and emence talent no one can argue. He never played with heart or a refuse to lose attitude it was always about him. I might not be an IU fan but I believe you IU fans have always respected hustle and heart over talent. That is not the case with Super Gordon it was always talent over heart. He is talented and a remarkable athlete but he is not a team player. I agree the Clippers is not a good fit for him because he is selfish and not a leader and that teams needs a leader not more selfish players.

I think Gordon is a good kid that played in a horrific situation. First off, he was injured most of the year and secondly, the coaching (or lackthereof) was abysmal. A good coach would not have made Gordon shoulder all responsibility and being given a green light to shoot. A team framework would have been more beneficial than basically a 30 game NBA tryout - for that I blame Sampson and his staff.

Gordon never said a bad word and looked to play hard on a team of thugs and druggies. He had nothing in common with them and didn't associate with his teamates. It is not his fault, Sampson ran an asylum so the good kids were thrust into the kettle of sludge with the majority bad ones.

Getting drafted by the Cliippers was the worst thing that could have happened to him. He would have been much better off going to Europe.

Actually, right now the argument is whether or not Hummel is the best player on the current team. With as much time as you spend on our board (about 80% of your life), I'm surprised you did not know that.

A player's checking and saving accounts are not of interest to me. The only numbers I'm interested in is on the basketball court.

If you want to obsess over his personal life, more power to ya.

So because David Teague scored 32 in a home win against IU, that means he should be playing in the NBA?
