Is Ben Gordon one of the purest scorers in the league? - MixMakers.net

**arlubas**

Even though I'm kind of worried that he might be the kind of deadly scorer AI was meaning that him scoring lots doesn't always translate to his team's success but nevertheless he's dropping them points by the bucket and now that he's out of chicago he's gone even more loose. Say what you will about his defensive deficincies or his shot jacking at times but he really is one of the deadliest guys on the one side of the court right now.

i was kinda sad the bulls let him go and we really needed that type of guy that can rack up points each game and i liked the combination we had between the guards. looking at his stats so far his shooting has been awesome and he has been consistent.

man **** ben gordon, ever since he left the bulls i hated him with a passion. hes a great scorer but he gets really hot and really cold. and that is all he will do, score. no rebounding no assists, terrible defender.

I'm curious, BG or Jamal Crawford?

When Ben Gordan is hot he can put up 30 + points in 25-30 minutes but when he is cold he is usless

I don't think of him in that Allen Iverson mould, rather an explosive shooter for his height. Maybe of a Vinnie 'Microwave' Johnson mould where he would come off the bench and light up the score board when they need that role to be fulfilled. I've always liked the guy because of his work effic and his ability to score in a hurry. And the guy knows how to keep himself fit, as shown before on NBA TV when he was undertaking Pilates, lol.

Yeah,of course he is.He's been one of the best scorers since his UConn days.

Ben Gordon .

I honestly think BG is one of the most underrated scorers in the league. He never gets any credit, well atleast not anymore. The Pistons would be 0-5 without him, put it that way.

Hes too efficient to fit that classification for most players of that ilk and his defensive shortcomings are less of an issue in todays small oriented league.

Well Jamal Crawford is a shot-jacker, how much I like him, he isn't in the category of Ben Gordon. Crawford relies too much on his jumper, Gordon goes to the rack more often , hitting floaters or getting to the line, Crawford is more off an off-the-dribble pull up guy. I really don't know btw why the Bulls still have Salmons, he is a shot-jacker. I don't really know what his value is.
