<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Born in England, Gordon doesn't rule out following Josh Childress' lead and signing with an overseas club. "Definitely, it's a possibility with the Euro being so strong. Josh did it. It just depends on what the individual wants or what he can put up with. I'm from London, so it's definitely something that seems like it would be interesting. But ideally I'd like to be here playing in the States for the team that drafted me." Teammate Luol Deng is in the same situation as Gordon. "We've been talking every once in a while just to see how each other is doing and how we're both dealing with the situation," Gordon said. "This is very familiar to both of us."</div> http://www.dailyherald.com/story/?id=223899 Now THAT would shake the NBA's foundation. A proven star moving to Europe? Changes would have to be made.
Im starting to think its more and more likely that we will see a resricted free agent go over sees in the future to get away from his old team....if he signed a 1 year deal over there, would he be unrestricted when he came back?
It would suck for the Bulls. I don't even understand what they're doing with Deng and Gordon. It's like they don't want them.
