Eric Gordon has seen every possible iteration of the Houston Rockets. He was there when they came a game away from reaching the NBA Finals, and now, he’s there as they attempt to pick up the pieces following the James Harden trade. It’s therefore safe to say that he can offer meaningful perspective on the steps his team took to wind up in both places, and as he revealed on Friday, there was one move in particular he flat-out disagreed with.
Gordon’s former teammate, Clint Capela, has thrived with the Atlanta Hawks. He has averaged 22 points across his last four games, and on Friday, he dropped a rare triple-double by posting 13 points, 19 rebounds and 10 blocks. When ESPN’s Tim MacMahon commented on the surprising feat, Gordon chimed in and voiced his displeasure at the Rockets for having traded Capela.
