I agree and actually think Briggs idea of signing Ramon Sessions isn't such a bad idea.

I'll take Rubio, but I really, really wanted Curry. We're going to watch his career and always wonder what if.

What if we didn't win those stupid games in April!

We might watch Rubio and wish what if Walsh pulled the trigger with Washington and got the 5th pick. NYk could have gotten Rubio or Curry and kept the 8th pick.

There always going to be doubt but Walsh is given a chance to redeem himself by making a deal with T-Wolves, I think BRIGGS trade idea is right on. This is an opportunity for Khan to redeem himself from a bone headed draft of multiple PGs.

If you believe Khan, he said he is willing to wait out the contract. Like I said the Blazers held on to Sarbonis' draft rights for a decade. So who knows.

big difference between pick #5 and the 30 or whatever Sabonis' was.

I don't believe Khan.

Martin, the guy was trying to kill himself just to move up to get a chance to draft the guy. Maybe he hopes the young man will change his mind. Yao stuck his nose up at Houston (with good cause because that city stinks) but had a change of mind after he visited with city and team officials. Maybe Rubio spends some time at Mall of America and a night on town with Prince and may have a different attitude. Maybe it is too soon to give up hope for T-Wolves.

Word is that Kahn thought Rubio would be off board and Evans and Flynn would be picks or perhaps Harden and Flynn. Don't think they moved up to draft Rubio.

Rubio and family live in Barcelona, which is like asking a Manhattan lifer to switch to downtown Wolves territory, not sure of that happening without a LOT of consideration. And I think because of buyout, he would earn the same amount of contract dollars in Minn as he would in Barcelona, so why bother? And he wouldn't have to deal with the dumbest idea of starting two ball-happy PGs in the same backcourt. And I gotta guess the endorsement deals are more suitable to him in Europe than in Minn.


Cablevison is going to use Rubio to sell Optimum to the Spanish masses in NY. The endorsement deal is worth the buyout.

IMO when Rubio fell to #5 MIN couldn't pass up on the opportunity & took him to use as a future bargaining chip, which was the smart play to make... i doubt anyone thought Rubio would fall to #5, but thanks to OKL's ridiculous stupidity he did... good thing for us tho... i think Rubio is gonna end up here when it's all said & done.
After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.
