Life ain't all a bed of roses.

Eric Gordon wants 'attention' based on what? He's a gifted basketball player, they tend to get attention fawned on them.
Please site self-posturing and styling examples. I don't see Kevin Love much so I can't comment, but being in the Midwest having seen Gordon play numerous times, he just plays. If that warrants the crap he got at Illinois in your mind, you have a strange set of values imo
Illini grad?
