    What does MT stand for?

    Llull looks very good this season. I don't know if it's because the Spanish league seems weaker this season or Rudy Fernandez compliments him well.

    That'd be it. Here's the original tweet:
    <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p>Sergio Llull always plays great when I see him. Clear-cut NBA athlete. Does everything. Perfect compliment to Harden, but won't leave Spain.</p>&mdash; Jonathan Givony (@DraftExpress) <a href="https://twitter.com/DraftExpress/status/281875879926329345" data-datetime="2012-12-20T21:37:01+00:00">December 20, 2012</a></blockquote>

    Moorie trying to trick the fans!

    Yes MT means modified tweet. Morey left out the part where Givony
    says too bad Llull won't leave Spain. I asked him if he thinks he'll ever come over and he replied, everything he hears is he has no interest but maybe Daryl can work some magic

    Never say never.. Think tend to change.. If he dominates in Europe for awhile he may decide to test the NBA.

    He isn't dominating Europe, but he is having his best season yet both in the ACB & Euroleague, despite a crowed backcourt (Don Draper, Sergio Rodriguez, Suarez, Rudy Fernandez & Jaycee Carroll).

    Leads the ACB in a few advanced metrics:

    I think it was deliberate. He must have disagreed with that part of the tweet.

    56.2 FG% as a guard... 50% from three point land while taking four three pointers per game. Unbelievable efficiency numbers.

    He is promoting a draft pick (that I think he had Les pay for) that after several years and multiple trips over seas (also on Les' dime) still refuses to leave home.

    If you are a Royce White fan, it gives you hope Morey won't give up on the kid, everyone else should just ignore it since the Llull pick isn't even worth trade bait with how vocal he and his actions are in regards to him not making the trip overseas.

    We should sign Don Draper.

    Sergio Lull and Royce White are the future of the Rockets.
