Ben Gordon to Russia? — MOUTHPIECE Blog // A Chicago-Addled Sports Blog
We all know Bulls guard Ben Gordon is a wee bit upset with the Bulls. (He’s gone as far as saying he’ll never wear a Chicago uniform again.)

Mike McGraw of The Daily Herald : “League sources continue to suggest there is little to no action on the Gordon trade market.

If he performs worse, he will get less, and if he performs better, ...
