^ I'm sure they could play together but it wouldn't maximize their abilities. Neither is a great shooter, but Rubio has such great passing ability while Wall is a monster athlete I'm sure it could work. Especially in the triangle with an emphasis on cuts, and passing ability.

Maybe Italy is right. If you watch Rubio and Childress, Childress (6.8), is 6 or 7 inches taller than Rubio, at least.

rubio's yahoo profile lists him as 6'5, coming from someone who has seen him play quite a bit i would say that he is 6'4, imo definitely not smaller than that...rudy fernandez is listed at and a legit 6'6 and rubio is not that much smaller than him, imo i would say that he is 6'4

His hair looks taller than Rubio. Other than Rubio actually looks almost as big as Childress...

I think he should guard centres!!!!
