What amazes me is how much they had to push things to make sure Rubio went to the Knicks. will this never end?

In what world does Collison, Casspi, and Blair go ahead of Rubio? And Fylnn before Harden and Lawson?

Blair could potentially be out of the league due to his knees before Rubio ever steps foot in the NBA.

I'd rather have Rubio/Harden if that's how the draft went. Collison doesn't fit in the triangle anymore than Flynn does.

Quick note about Terrence Williams, before last night's game the kid was putting up 14/6/6 in his last ten games in ~27mpg. Very slow start for him, but his improved play has led to better play from the Nets. I'm feeling better about how much love I had for him at the draft last year.

It's WAY too early to be doing something like this, especially since Griffin has yet to play.

Why in the hell would the Warriors take Blair? He'd literally die on the court playing in their system on the first night he played 15mins+.

Because if they took Rubio, the Knicks wouldn't get him. duh.

I wouldn't trade either of our picks for either of those.

I'd take Harden, Lawson and T Will over the guys they gave us.

The league is hyping up Curry way too much.

Curry is a solid player, thats all i'm willing to admit till Nellie retires or he gets fed up and leaves. Dude landed in the most ideal situation for a player of his skillset.

And only in the twilight zone do the Wolves not do Rubio/Harden with whats off the board. Maybe Rubio/Collison if they have an inclination Rubio doesn't play for 3 years.
