they'll play one on one and display their skills by doing drills and seeing who's better.

If he ends up at the Warriors and their glut of guards, I will give up faith on the NBA having a legit Aussie Star (Bogut aint a star)

Any players that would decline would probably be talen off the Knicks board, Id like to see us have a shooting guard camp too, Evan, DeRozan, Harden they all could fall to us at 8

For some reason I dont like the SG class this year. Id rather take a PG.

Rumors say that harden and evans have top 5 locks. Especially harden. And if evans slips to number 6. Minnesota would take him. They love him and derozan

Either way we should look to move up and grab Rubio or Jennings, package DLee and the 8th for a top 4 pick

Or just draft Teague, the player I want the most...

The assumption is that Memphis will trade down a few spots, possibly to 4th, where Sacramento can offer either Jason Thompson or Spencer Hawes as added compensation. That would surely please Rubio’s camp, as the difference between the 2nd and 4th picks is somewhere around four million dollars over the course of his rookie deal, which would make things infinitely easier as far as his buyout is concerned, and also satisfy his and his family’s initial expectations of being a top-3 pick.

There are some concerns that being selected fourth won’t cut it, and Rubio has already come out publicly in the Spanish media and stated that it’s not a foregone conclusion that he’ll be leaving Joventut this summer.

“There are possibilities of continuing in Joventut. It depends on what number I get picked and the final negotiations, but mainly the buyout clause that my agent is negotiating with the club.”

In the interview, Rubio insists that he will not leave Joventut unless a better future awaits him in the NBA. “If there is not a good project in the NBA then I will not go. If I go it is because there is a good future.”

Would Memphis qualify for that? The answer early on from Rubio’s perspective appears to be no.
HELLLLLLL NOOOOO!!!!!

Rubio seems like one classless douche. What is the difference between $3 mill and $4 mill for example?

I can not comprehend someone, having the opportunity to do something they love for a profession, and they turn down a multi million dollar offer.

snowy, it's just not enough money to make him want to play in the land of the free, home of the brave.
