    Why bump a thread from 2 years ago?

    Who is choosing Rubio?

    How is this even a debate?

    Wall by a mile. He is the best pg in the east. And Rubio is just over rated and flashy.

    Seriously? It's about revisiting a question that was posed two years ago and determining who was right (i.e., the people who voted for Wall).

    He was so good in this game. He scored from inside, scored from outside, scored on fast breaks, dish out assists, threw down thunderous dunks.....

    This kid is a young Michael Jordan.

    It's funny reading these old posts and seeing how wrong and inaccurate some of you were. Some of you grow a personal attatchment to one player, and let that emotion affect your opinion when comparing him to another athlete.

    With that said, Rubio was & never will be the player John Wall is talent wise. Not even close and you should be ashamed for ever thinking he was

    I agree 100% with that! Rubio will never be a scorer. How can you build a franchise around a guy that will never score 20+ games. So he can be John Stockton and guess what, that was Malone's team. Rubio is not tough like Stockton either.

    They are both 23, Wall doesn't play with an All-Star and Rubio does. Both teams are about .500 and yet some people think Rubio is better? What goggles do I need to put on to see that Rubio is better?

    If you have to build your team around either player you are in trouble. Rubio is a 3rd/4th best player on a contender at best unless he magically gets WAY better as a scorer. Wall has never impressed me all that much. I think he can become a secondary player on a contender but it will be hard to build a team around him. It would have to be a 04 Pistons or 02 Kings type of team that is stacked at each position where there isn't a clear cut #1 guy.

    I LMAO too.

    This statement is almost as dumb as your signature...

    "Draft Vince Young and don't look back. (RocketForever said in 2006)

    Draft Teddy Bridgewater and don't look back. (RocketForever said in 2014)"

    WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
