Now that we got Rubio...
You think we will get a National TV game? I think there is a good chance.
When luck shuts the door skill comes in through the window.

They just reported that Minni plans to play them together, but that can't be right, can it?

stuck to his guns and took the 2 best players available. Kahn impresses me more and more by the day

Re: Now that we got Rubio...
The good news is that even if one of them busts, at least one should pan out and we have our PG of the future. They're going to need to work on their shooting if they want to play together though...Rubio is tall for a PG, so he guard some SG's...offensively, I really have trouble seeing it.
The thing is, there really wasn't a great option to fit with our roster after Rubio. Curry probably would have been the best fit, but I really like that they picked the 2 guys that they like the best. I firmly believe in picking BPA.

Thriving on mediocrity since '89.

A portland poster who has shown to have some inside knowlege said that Portland has been on the phone with Minny since the picks were made. Not sure who its for, but take it for what its worth.
Thank you for all the memories BRoy. You were a class act and brought hope to an entire region for 5 years. You will be missed.

that would be sweet. I doubt the value is there though. Flynn + #18 for Rudy? or is it too much?

Flynn and 28 maybe?
Edit: We could probably throw both 2nds in as well. It's not like they're worth anything.
Just as long as it isn't Rubio.

Re: Now that we got Rubio...
Portland should have to pony up to us, not vice versa. Jonny Flynn completes the PDX dynasty, careful what you wish for

There could be a three way trade with NY and Memphis
Hill to Memphis
Thabeet to MN
Rubio to NY
Hill to Memphis
Thabeet to MN
Rubio to NY

That would be terrible for Minnesota. Rubio is worth more than Thabeet.
