Well he unredeemed himself by refusing to call a timeout. I doubt he had much input in that draft selection since he was hired June 1, 2011 and the draft was 22 days later on June 23, 2011.

lots of rumors between Minnesota and Houston
Minnesota wants Tyus Jones (does this mean Rubio is be traded?)
Houston is trying to move Terrence Jones and #18 pick
do we have enough to match Rubio's contract 12.7M without giving up Ariza?
Papa 4.8M (not guaranteed), TJones 2.5M, Prigioni 1.7M, Capela 1.2M, Dorsey 1M
now ... how can we turn Rubio into LMA?

never saw this video but it's pretty interesting and I guess proves McHale was the one responsible for picking Royce White

right now the hot rumor is we are working to draft Tyus Jones then trade to Minnesota for Rubio
TJones plus bunches of people is going to be traded somewhere
i hear Papa contract is not guaranteed, Prigioni is partially guaranteed, and so is Dorsey (i believe)
so very easy to dump


so plan #15901

C - Howard, Capela
PF - DMo, JSmoove, Christmas
SF - Ariza, McDaniels
SG - Harden, Brewer, Terry
PG - Rubio, Llull, Johnson
