    I was a freshman in high school when Eric was a senior. I was there when Eric Gordan played Greg Oden at Hinkle Fieldhouse, the greatest basketball game I do believe I will have the honor of witnessing. Greg Oden was number one in the country his Sophmore, Junior and Senior year, truly an unbelievable level of basketball coming out of Indy back then.

    Gordon had to drastically change his game due to his injuries when many other players would have given up.
    He was launching 30ft 3s before it even became a thing. He didn't have the mobility to create space, and so he created it using distance.
    I always watch his games and think he's probably the most underated "what-if" story.
    Mad respect for him to remain humble as a good role player even when he had elite level stuff for amazing things.

      Yeah his hornets days were good. Wanna say maybe around 2013 he averaged like 24 a game and was top 10 in the league in scoring if I'm not mistaken.

    I consider myself lucky to have watched Greg Oden, Mike Conley, and Eric Gordon play basketball in high school. It was awesome seeing them dominate in high school and college. I'm glad that Gordon and Conley are still having solid NBA careers even though Oden's career ended on a bad knee injury.

    The late Paul Loggan (seen at 5:17 with the mustache) was one of North Central most impactful coaches and mentors. There's a foundation dedicated to him (the Paul Loggan foundation) supporting highschool athletics and a number of other good causes in Indiana, and continuing the legacy of a truly incredible man. Just figured I'd put this out there.
