In context
BillI don't think it's going to happen.
BillYeah, I'm with you on that one. I don't think he has the same athleticism that he had when he came in the league, so we'll see.
BillAaron Gordon quote, when we have all our guys, we're still the best in the league.
BillI admire that he said this, and I admire his conviction, but even when they have all their guys, they're not the best in the league.
Billso i'm gonna have to i i admire that he would say this publicly but i don't deep down he can't believe this right can i respond
Goldsberrywith the stat yeah so for the first time in nba history players 30 and over played less than 20 of minutes last year um it's something i've been thinking about you actually got me on to looking at calf strains and hamstrings which i think is very relevant to Aaron.
GoldsberryI think every basketball nerd loves Aaron Gordon. Everybody roots for him to be healthy, but the combination of aging bodies and the way we're playing this game and how frequently the league is insisting on making these guys play, I agree with him. If everybody's healthy, that's a very hard team to beat.
