Now, if we don't get Lebron and we can get a few more great players then having a real pg would be the way to go. I think if we got Curry in the last draft he would have been the PERFECT pg to have with Lebron. But as Hill develops he might also be the perfect C to have. If Rubio can't shoot the quicker defenders in the nba are going to back off him and I'm not sure he'll be as a good a distributor then. His talent is just too good to pass up though. He has Gallo's IQ and defense but no shot. I like Rubio though and would take a chance on him. (Yeah, I'm up and down on him because of his glaring weakness as a shooter).

Wilson isn't a great shooter either, he's a slasher... i agree w/u about Stephon Curry, he'd be a good fit next to Lebron cuz of his shooting ability, but his lack of defense is a concern... Rubio looks like he's got tremendous defensive instincts from the limited action i've watched of him... his shooting needs definite work but can u imagine him leading the break w/Lebron running next to him? that's gonna be Sportscenter Top 10 play material.

Jason Kidd coming into the L had the same rap on him that he could not shoot.....
2 years ago Lee couldnt hit a ten footer!! Rubio has something special that you could never teach.... He can see a play develop before He does not shoot enough ok granted but he would run the 7 second or less offense better THEN ANYONE The Mayor is talented and hopefully turns into an Allstar but the plan is Lebron so he wont do it here! Rubio wont have to shoot really just find Gallo or Bron when they are open will do us just fine!! KNICKS on the way UP!!!

TMS - Wilson is ok from midrange and I think it's ok to have two slashers on the same team. Also, Wilson is big for a 2 so he will continue to cause Matchup problems. I forgot about how Curry is having problems on defense, very true. I like Douglas as a semi pt pg and excellent defender. Yeah, Rubio in NY with Bron would be fun to watch. I just wonder about NBA guards and defenders keeping him from driving, but his handle (like Gallos) is great, so perhaps he can drive regardless
Umynot - I would be willing to wait to get a talent like Rubio. Chandler is a great talent and maybe is worth getting Rubio for. I wonder if we could get Curry from GS for him???

I just wonder about NBA guards and defenders keeping him from driving, but his handle (like Gallos) is great, so perhaps he can drive regardless i think anyone can pretty much work with Lebron except for another volume scorer... guys like Gallo, Lee & Wilson would seem to be able to work well w/Lebron, but i just feel Rubio would just be too good to pass up especially w/our apparent weakness at the PG position... it's been so long since we've had a real, star calibre PG who could orchestrate & play defense... Derek Harper came close but he had his best years in DAL. After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.
