Clippers guard Eric Gordon is open to the possibility of a contract extension sometime within the next year or so.

"That might be a year down the road," Gordon said when asked about a possible long-term pact. "I would like to be with the Clippers and see what's going to happen, possibly get an extension after next year. You just never now."

The Clippers have struggled for quite a while, but Gordon sees promise in their current core, especially with Blake Griffin, who missed his entire rookie season.

"We tried to develop some chemistry in the summer league, but he's basically been hurt since then," Gordon said. "We're still close. We know we'll probably be together for a while. We're going to spend some time working out together.

"I think in a couple months, he'll be 100 percent, if he's not now."
