    I think what the Rox are looking for out of their 2 is someone who is a "great" spot up shooter ( with some size). I think this guy fits the bill. Plus he is young, and wouldn't demand the ball. I know people are hyped on Glover, but he is not a good compliment to T-Mac. Yeah he is a big guard, put does he open the game up with his shooting? I don't know I would be suprise to see a sleeper like Rush wearing the Rox red!

    Rush was a badass at Mizzou. Much like the rest of the 2002 draft class, however, his NBA career has been a bust. He's a streaky shooter who couldn't even start for the Bobcats last year. I'll pass.

    Yea I thought about him...thought about how he looks like a young Dominique Wilkins. But that's about it.

    I've watched a lot of his play in LA. He's not a good player. He's even streakier than Wesley, does not play good defense, and cannot dribble the ball at all. I'm serious, he'd dribble it off his foot before he brought it up the court. Pass on him. Sometimes he looks good, but most of the time he's nothing.

    I haven't watched a lot of him, but what I have seen would lead me to believe he'd be a desirable bench player for us.

    Shaq and Kobe made this guy look like a star two years ago. now hes a 12th man on the bobcats lol. he would be a great back up shooting guard. but starters minutes for rush is a no-no.

    I saw a lot of Lakers games. The only thing Rush can do is shoot and nothing else. He can't play a lick of defense, a no no for JVG's team. He looks lost in offensive sets. I'd rather have Scott Padgett play SG for us. :D
