    A great summary for both players, I can not say it better than this.

    Just so we're keeping track

    Drew has said we're screwed
    Plowman has said we're still on for one of Rubio/Rondo/Dragic
    Batman Jones said we're only targeting one of the discussed player(meaning we're not looking at all of them)
    And now cyberx is saying we've looked at Rubio/Rondo

    Conclusion? Morey has multiple personalities?

    Maybe Morey believes Rubio needs a change of scenery. I also wouldn't doubt that he believes Rubio could develop a 3 point shot like Jason Kidd did.

    Cyberz- What about

    GORAN DRAGIC

    He's the one that pushes us from pretender to contender. I just can't see him and Bledsoe coexisting for too long.

    I personally think DM was doing his due homework and just checking out the Rubio front. I don't think DM would really give up much for him.

    We all know how much he likes Rondo. That is the real target.

    Dragic
    Harden
    Ariza
    Jones
    Dwight

    Best offensive starting 5 in the league?

    ^^^^

    This is speculation, not insider information.

    My sources tell me he'll take Rubio or Rondo for the right deal but Rubio is a better fit because of his contract status.



    There is a greater chance that Rubio comes here in the next 17 days than there is Rondo. After October 31st that could change substantially.

    He obviously feels that he will be a good enough fit with Howard and Harden as compared to the recent Kevin Love led Wolves. I feel that he is not worth the max at all. The Wolves will ask for a lot for him, even if they change their mind.

    I would rather take a gamble on a cheaper lesser talented PG like Tyler Ennis for D-Mo(if that works salary wise).

    The right deal would be not giving much at all. Which I am almost certain Minny won't do.

    Celtics have

    Kelly O. & jared sullinger both knocking down shots at PF

    A. Bradley, Smart both solid D players and smart is a playmaker

    -----
    our only assets are bev & jones ...bev is same player as Bradley and is due for a new contract this summer, they don't need jones at all, they're deep at PF ... asik, parsons, lin are gone that's what they needed some more scoring and a solid center.

    Morey just needs to talk to danny about a small package for BASS expiring, they are trying to develop their young PFs, we need a PF who can shoot and he fits the defense direction we are going with starters. We will be a top defensive team in the west.

    howard
    bass
    ariza
    harden
    bev

    would be a tough minded team.

    Yeah I don't think that's very realistic either, but Dragic would improve us the most of those three. Rubio is overrated, and Rondo might probably be just a shadow of his former self.

    Any names from our side, cyberx?
