    But Rubio is the answer? My goodness, for RR to be the answer I need a new question.

    Harden's perfection, or peccadillos, or anything come from Harden, his trust in teammates, his teammates, his coaches, lots of places. But perfection will absolutely positively not be attained thru the acquisition of Ricky Rubio.

    Mebbe there was a day that Rubio and you were right for the Rox. Owner Alexander's selection for coach changes any narrative surrounding the acquisition of one Ricardo Rubio to anything but a footnote, or a flatnote.

    Please focus on fixing the faults from the reality presented currently. The rest of us know, or think we do, that MDA was as poor a choice as Rubio would be in an MDA offensive set (sic).

    But most of us, at least I suppose so, are dealing w/'our' team and coach, FO, ownership and all that make up

    I think both are legitimate concerns, but we need a distributor who can also score.

    14 shots a game at 39 percent is your answer? Bad idea. I do like the idea of Jennings on a D'Antoni team though.

    If Pringles signs off on it and if this is legit, it'll be done.

    I agree with you, only a nutcase would do this. Keep away from the Wolves Morey! Don't let Les and Pringles carry it out.

    The guy can't shoot or finish at the rim. No need for Rubio in Houston.

    Nash was in the 50-40-90 club...Rubio is in the 30-30-80 club...

    Forget Rubio for a second -

    Pekovic may be the single worst contract in the NBA. Here's a guy who's been worse than replacement for two years and he's guaranteed for the NEXT THREE SEASONS.

    No thanks.
