Eric gordon has been dumped in almost all my leagues. It all depends on who in WW u will replace him for. I picked up Gee and Seraphin when I dumped him twice. There is a good chance he will clear waivers so do not use ur waiver on him in any case. The truth is he is a whiny wuss who can't play with any pain even though there is nothing wrong. I think he needs the same microfracture surgery that did Odens career in. but that report is just one of many to explain the phantom pain he claims he has. Really EG not playing soon is the only solid info u can count on.

I have EG on my team as well and I'm thinking about cutting bait.
I was actually going to start a new topic but this one was close enough so I figured I'd add. It's related to injury stashing. RIght now I'm stashing Love (which I'm fine with because he's a beast) and Gordon (who, as discussed, is a b*tch).
In my league, Rubio, Rose and most recentely John Wall were dropped. Is Wall worth a waiver (I've got #1)? In general, should I unload Gordon for one of these guys or a bottom-of-the roster guy (Stuckey would be most likely). Overall, how long is too long to hold onto someone?
I'm in a 10 team h2h league. Thanks

If it were me I'd unload Gordon for Wall. Wall's value should be overall fairly similar to Gordon and his return is not far off. With Gordon you have a guy who may or may not play at all this year depending on his progress. The likely scenario in my eyes is Gordon coming back in a couple months to play every few games or so.

Yeah I'm certainly leaning towards this option. Wall just recentely cleared waivers in my league so its not like someone is itching to snap him up any time soon. I'm gonna spend another week trying to see if I can get anything for EG in a trade from some dumb owner before bailing on him fully.

GL on finding someone who will trade for Eric Gordon.  u have a better chance of a unicorn sighting. I wouldn't wait long on Wall though

I agree with you Hailfire. But for some reason the people in my league seem to be especially averse to injured guys. Someone just traded my Kevin Love for Pau, and another example is the load of soon-to-return guys still on waivers. THe bottom line is I don't think anyone's gonna pick up Wall anytime soon

That is quite strange. I would have used a waiver on Wall no question but if you can have him without it then all the better.

Should I take Afflalon for Gordon? EG said today pain is subsiding but no timeable for return
