Posted by fishmike: I'll repeat what I said in another thread since it got ignored and I think it bears repeating when it comes to these NBA cats giving props to a player they went against in the Olympics.... You have to be really careful about falling in love with small game samples, especially with NBA prospects. Rubio, was no doubt flying on adrenaline playing against Bean, Lebron..ext. A lot of marginally talented players could replicate such a performance in a similar scenario. My saliva and spit can split thread into fiber and bits/ So trust me I'm as live as it gets.

LOL other than Gasol and Hedo. No other foreign player had an impact in the conference finals and NBA Finals. I'm not mad at Kobe, he is positioning for his post NBA career when he buys that Italian team. LOL, got to love the part about Boston not having a single foreign player on it. KG says not on my damn team. As nyk would say that is some serious euro-bias.

Yeah, if he fell to 8, I'm with you. But we have to trade a #8 and conceivably Chandler and other assets just to get to him? I dont know anything about him.

I fail to see how Larry Hughes would be more enticing for Dwyane Wade or LeBron James to play with than Ricky Rubio. Kobe likes him. I'm sure the entire Olympic Team likes him because everyone deferred to him. I'm sure LeBron would love to throw down his passes if/when Cleveland chokes again. Rubio would have one year to be shown the ropes by Duhon and
 . Rubio makes the most sense if you're drafting to pitch future FA... his talents are based around passing the basketball.DLeethal wrote:

Celtics lost when they added Marbury. Marbury is from a differnt place. A magical place, a special place. |

I don't know about a pg who can't flat out score in this league. Last year alone there at least 6 very good scoring pg's added to the league. They keep compare this kid to kidd. But kidd is a hell've rebounder for a pg and a more then reasonable defender. Playmaking is obviously a major strength but shooting is equally important.

Posted by Pharzeone: Mikael Pietrus had a pretty significant impact in the Magic's postseason games & so did Nene for Denver... & both Gasol & Hedo were probably 1 of the top 2 most important players for their teams, u can't just discount those guys... that's like saying other than Kobe & Dwight there were no other US born superstar players on the court in the Finals.

Posted by TMS:Posted by Pharzeone: The report was skewed. The guy brought up Sun Yue when he refered to the Asian player on the Lakers. If you think Sun Yue had an impact on the series then we watched a different series. I added Pietrus to the mix. Yeah Nene should be on that list too. But I can't include Sasha and Yue two guys he included. The same for Gortat. For me, it is only Gasol and Hedo as far as serious impact. To me it is silly point. I'm wouldn't do a story about guys having an impact on the finals who didn't go to college even though they had the biggest impact. What purpose does that serve?
