    Was there. It was epic. Gordon was probably oblivious to the fact he was driving a stake through MJ's soul. He's honestly such a nice guy. He's the type to wet you up for 40 all while telling you nice shot/good play/nice defense the whole time and truly mean it.

Not only do they have to live in their father's shadow on a daily basis, but they were KIDS getting scorched by ESPN commentators on what was then one of the most watched channels, and are still having videos made about how they got beat on 14 years later.

    I was a freshman in high school when Eric was a senior. I was there when Eric Gordan played Greg Oden at Hinkle Fieldhouse, the greatest basketball game I do believe I will have the honor of witnessing. Greg Oden was number one in the country his Sophmore, Junior and Senior year, truly an unbelievable level of basketball coming out of Indy back then.

    Gordon had to drastically change his game due to his injuries when many other players would have given up.
    He was launching 30ft 3s before it even became a thing. He didn't have the mobility to create space, and so he created it using distance.
    I always watch his games and think he's probably the most underated "what-if" story.

You just don't want him bringing the ball up or running the offense. LOL! His career is winding down now, but he's always been a great player for Houston and one of my faves.

    In Michael Jordan’s hall of fame speech, he said “I wouldn’t want to be my kids playing basketball”. That says it all. Jordan played because of his nature. He had the right ingredients growing up among his brothers, and guidance from his father. His kids, loved a luxurious life and had a legacy to up to… but wasn’t necessary. They didn’t need to prove the Jordan name. Their father did it already.
