The team has been full of injuries their draft picks and leading scorer. Not winning = team not happy...period. He really wanted to be in PHX and didn't want to be in New Orleans since being traded to N.O.

Players felt entitled before AAU. Any dude that was an All-American in HS will feel some level of entitlement :aicmon:

I'll take it a step further - any American with heavy talent will feel entitled, no matter what their area of expertise.

:pachaha:@ Stern forcing everything to be in N.O.'s favor: CP3 not going to the Lakers, taking over the ownership so he can have a team stay in Nawlins, now this.

This is why you never resign a player who has told you he didnt want to be there. Gordon probably wanted to go to Phoenix because of the top notch medical staff because he probably figured they would get his knee right. But you would think that he would be happy in New Orleans. Its a great city he should have the green light to shoot and he has got a young stud in Anthony Davis that will make the Pelicans better a whole lot sooner than later.

If Eric Gordon would've manned the fukk up and stopped acting like a bytch the Pelicans would've been set for the next decade

Vazquez, Unibrow, Ryan Anderson, Robin Lopez, etc would've been a damn good core for NO to build around. But this nikka wanna act like a hoe.

But nobody should be surprised that he acting bytchmade after what happened with his college decision

Well, media is bigger now...so we know more about them before they reach college. Now these kids have twitter and are gaining hundreds of new followers every week. But don't think for one second that dudes were not like that back in the day.

Eric Gordon is not the first player,neither will he be the last that is unhappy about where he plays. When you are losing, you are going to have blowups with other players and coaches. This is common with losing teams. This really should not be that big of a deal.

It comes with just being a great athlete on that level. I mean look at that thread on Gerald Wallace and his lack of confidence.
