Is Avery Bradley the best compliment for Rubio?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rubio strengths are Bradley's weaknesses and Vice Versa.

Rubio is good with the ball in his hands, but not a great shooter.
Bradley's a good shooter, but not a playmaker.

Rubio is a Big Point Guard. Bradley is an under-sized 2.

Rubio might have trouble guarding the quicker PGs in the NBA. Bradley is a Lock-down defender and could stay with the PGs.

Midget 2's? Why not find a SG with size and create the mismatch, not try to adjust to one?

Good Point. but can Rubio guard quick PGs - or will they continually beat him off the dribble. If you play Rubio, do you basically need a second defensive PG on the floor?

I'd rather take my chances with Rubio guarding PGs than SGs... and after the failed Foye experiment, I want nothing to do with a SG in a PG body.
