Gordon did all that while being injured most of the season he was absolutely incredible and was an impact defender as a true freshman. If it weren’t for injuries he would’ve made at least a few All-Star appearances but they kept him from his true star potential. It’s amazing that he has recovered to still be an elite role player, really speaks to his skill level and bbiq As I see it Gordon came into his freshmen year as a stronger, better shooting, more aggressive to the basket version of Romeo. I do think Romeo is better with the ball in his hands generally, but I give Gordon the nod defensively as well. I would be thrilled to see Romeo eclipse Gordon but I don’t see it. Romeo will get plenty of possessions and opportunities but I don’t think he’ll get THAT many and I’m not sure he’all be aggressive enough to get to the free throw line as often as Gordon did either. I think he’ll be very efficient and score in the mid teens. HoosierX, yogisballin and thebigweave 3 Quote

Josh Posted October 21, 2018 Posted October 21, 2018 As long as we're talking about Eric Gordon's stats here, let's remember that DJ White was unanimous Big Ten POY that year. DJ was so good that year that he had it wrapped up with 5 games to go. Hopefully Romeo can have that level of help on this team too. HinnyHoosier, Iugradman, Crimson and Cream and 4 others 7 Quote
