You'd hope Love and Rubio would be a draw, but it's tough to say what motivates these stars in free agency.

The San Antonio dynasty didn't attract huge free agent signings. The Bulls have been largely built internally as well. Meanwhile, players are dying to go to New Jersey.

A legit PG is a big deal for any FA ... they generally represent team leadership, structure, and longevity. I do not know how FA's will perceive the Rube to others, but I am very confident that it will improve our image.

I have no doubt, he pass the ball first, his basketball IQ is awesome, he makes everybody around happy making plays for easy baskets ...
