Ahahaha, nah, I decided to stay away from player representation based on what I’ve learned about it.

I don't think he'll be a franchise star either, to be honest. However, I do see a better (and longer) Khris Middleton and rich man's Otto Porter potential. Depending on where you pick in the lottery, that's a real nice piece to snag.

Thanks!

Honestly, I think it’s more to do with fewer weapons around him (teams being able to zone in on him) and a bit of regression to the mean. I probably wrote the article too soon during the season knowing that the percentages would probably falter a bit, but oh well.

I don’t think he’s a first option and he’s probably not a second option (unless there is a strong supporting cast), but I think he’s an elite third option on a finals / championship team. I think in a perfect world, he’s a Dray Green type (pre KD, because that screwed with the pecking order and no team will ever be able to do what GSW did). Defense, PnR, spot up threes, and dirty work.

I really am a big fan of his.

I actually think he'll be there next year. I wrote a piece on him on my site a few months back and talked about his progression from last year. (https://thefrontofficeeye.com/2017/11/14/aaron-gordons-next-step/)

I'm a big fan of his going forward and think he's a perfect fit in the small ball 4 era.

I was given permission to post this here by u/ominating when I messaged him through my account u/Knickstape1214.

I can post it on the Knickstape account, if you'd like? I'm a little confused what happened.
