It seems like Ben Gordon has decided not to play for the Chicago Bulls next season. Apparently, Gordon and his agent, Raymond Brothers, will not settle for a one year $6.4 million offer. The two have been speaking with other teams and the guard from England might even jump on the “NBA Europe” bandwagon by signing with an European team.
One possibility, that is still somewhat premature, is Ben going to the Miami Heat for Shawn Marion. Chicago can definitely use a a quick power forward and Miami can certainly afford to trade one with their legitimate forwards. A major downside to this trade is that Gordon plays the same position as Dwyane Wade does for the Heat and they also just made a major investment in James Jones.
One thing is for sure, good ole’ Gordon probably wishes that he had signed that 5 year $50 million deal last year. What do you think?
