If a basketball coach could draw up the perfect jump shot, all he or she would need to do is check out a video of Ben Gordon. Gordon simply doesn’t miss if he’s given any room, and many times that room isn’t even necessary. Even though Gordon has been the topic of several trade rumors in recent years, he’s found a nice niche in Chicago coming off the bench.
In fact, national writers are beginning to notice, as Gordon’s role as a sixth man is headed to potentially-historic levels. Gordon can go off for 40+ points on any given night, and his presence makes everyone around him instantly better. If you want to see a truly beautiful stroke, pick up some Chicago Bulls tickets and see Gordon live.
