Rockets interested in Eric Gordon

http://basketball.realgm.com/wiretap/226117/Mavericks-Warriors-Rockets-I...
According to Chris Broussard the Houston Rockets envisions playing him alongside James Harden and Jeremy Lin in its fast-paced system, with Harden at small forward.

why are the rockets interested in Gordon when he plays the same exact position as Harden and makes the same amount of money?

How good would the Duo be?

REPORT..... Chris Broussard

REPORT.....

Chris Broussard of ESPN reports the Mavs, Rockets and Warriors are among the teams that have expressed interest in trading for Eric Gordon.
Gordon's name has popped up recently in some trade rumors as his knee appears to be holding up, but the shooting guard had previously told team execs he is content in New Orleans for the time being. Broussard report is part of an ESPN Insider column and not a news story. The report also puts the odds of Gordon being moved at less than 10 percent and we don't expect he'll be moved by next week's trade deadline, although that won't stop his name from being mentioned in rumors.

Not a good idea.

This team is heading in the right direction already, no need to tie yourself up with all that money at the 2 spot on what seems like would be a PANIC trade just to make the playoffs this season.

Get a wing defender & let this team grow. Just so young & trading for EG would be a mistake IMO.

Dwight is turning into the Terrell Owens of the NBA, a talented locker room distraction.

Are the Rockets stupid? This would make zero sense.

Add the Pacers to the list of teams interested. The guy the Pacers obviously want to move is Danny Granger. Gordon and George will be nice.

Would have to get more teams involved. The Hornets have no interested in Granger because he's almost 30. They are too far away from seriously competing to get a big piece at that age.
