If we take Lopez, I'll punch my TV. But I then won't be able to watch the remainder of the draft. Hmm. Decisions, decisions.

http://sportstwo.com/NBA/Story/NBA/2515279 Clippers grab hot-shooting Gordon at No. 7 Thursday, June 26, 2008 08:26 PM NEW YORK (Ticker) - The Los Angeles Clippers need a point guard - they hope Eric Gordon can fill that role. With the injured Shaun Livingston's future up in the air, the Clippers grabbed Indiana guard Gordon with the No. 7 pick in the NBA draft Thursday at Madison Square Garden. Livingston, who was supposed to be a star floor general for Los Angeles, missed parts of two seasons after a gruesome knee injury. Gordon now may have to learn to run the club. However, his strength lies with his lethal jumpshot, which he unveiled in his lone collegiate season with the Hoosiers. Gordon has as much range as anybody in the draft and can score from the perimeter at will. But there are questions about his body type and his ability to take the ball to the basket. His up-and-down freshman season also was not encouraging. As impressive as he was during the first part of the college season, his most distinguishing trait in 2007-08 may have been how well he handled himself on two trying occasions. Gordon battled through the hassle he received for backing out of his commitment to his hometown team (Illinois). He also had to deal with recruiting turmoil that surrounded the Indiana basketball program this season off the court. The latter of which may explain his statistical decline across the board during the second half of the season.
