that is a good point. wait, I mean BOO, YOU'RE A WOLVES FAN.... but seriously, yeah, at WORST he should've been #2, but I suspect these picks were kind of like "ok, pick the top two rookies from this years draft and then do whatever you want"
Stupid auto correct. But yeah, that would be the only explanation I could think of. Glad Shved got in it.
Kind of off topic, but the rising stars game got me thinking, how has Meyers Leonard been? Saw him play last year at the barn. He was very athletic, but man he just didn't seem to get it. He let little things tick him off and it really affected his play.
He shows glimpses of being a decent pro, and glimpses of intense rawness. He should be sent to the DL, imho, since he barely gets off the pine here.
I wonder how many players have played in the Rook/Soph game and the real All-Star game in the same year. Off of the top of my head, I can think of these Brandon Roy Kevin Durant Blake Griffin LeBron James Who else am I missing?
Whole bucket of meh right now, he's athletic, but pretty clueless when he's in there. He's got miles to go before you'd call him a professional basketball player.
I didn't see the game, but the 3-13 is typical Bricky. What stood out was the 12-13 FTs. Not that he actually made 12 of 13 FTs, but why the heck was Uath fouling him and sending him to the line? Haven't they seen the scouting reports? You don't just let Rubio shoot, you invite him to shoot - from anywhere. The defensive game plan should be force Rubio to try to beat us with his jump shot and you'll win every time. Heck, from what I've seen, you can let him shoot lay-ups and still come out ahead. BNM
The most injured team ever was the 09-10 Blazers. Almost everyone, including the coach, had knee surgery. It was great. At point our team was Bayless and Howard leading the way. Everyone but Webster and Miller missed games. Crazy season. And we made the playoffs.
Why do we care? He thinks the Clippers are garbage as well but POR isn't. It is fine to be a homer about one's team but it should be easy to be realistic about another.
Rubio is averaging over 6 assists a game shortly after comic off an injury . . . but then again you did admit you can be a blockhead in this very thread. This board is anything but impartial when it comes to Rubio. One poster actually thinks Price and Smith are better than Rubio.
