Rubio can't play until 2011/12 or 2012/13. The same years Sessions is signed

is this thread serious?

Sessions is a worlds-away better defender and finisher then Bassy.

Clearly Sessions for the reasons mentioned. Once he knows his role a little better, and gets some decent minutes, he will improve. I'm still optimistic Sessions and Flynn can thrive in the same side.

Sessions is by far the better player, but I'm not arguing Sessions versus Telfair, it's their value to the team.

-Telfair has a cheaper shorter contract (think 2010/2011)
-Rubio will enter at a time Flynn and Sessions are still members of the team
-In the preseason, Sessions is averaging only 20 mpg. Don't tell me it's just the preseason because Rambis never started Sessions once in those 7 games.

Rubio at this stage is an asset. Whether that means he is moved, or another player is moved, our goal is to collect talent. Our talent level is crap. Sessions is the better talent. Simple as that.

Not to mention a worlds-away better passer.

Just curious, does anyone believe Sessions, Flynn, and Rubio can work or do you believe Rubio has to go? Which is pretty much my argument that we can't have all 3.

I think one of them will go. But it will be as value.

I personally think Rubio can play with another pg. He is a sg's size and is expected to "fill-out" more. He played with a pg last year in DKV also.

Why is Rubio even a concern in October 2009, when we likely won't see him play for another 2-3 years?

As far as Telfair vs Sessions. On top of what's already been mentioned, they're both not good outside shooters, the difference is Sessions is smart enough to not shoot those shots. Sessions also has MUCH better size and is younger.
