Haliburton is so overated, these analysts must love his personality.

Re: NBA Draft Day Thread
I love the leadership and intagibles from Rubio, they are through the roof.
But the positional/scheme fit is head scratching.

What pick is it at right now? He's still available?
I never heard Rosas say he wanted Haliburton ... the media suggested ... I kinda flip flopped on him

Sometimes I want to use a word I just can't use here. So I won't.

Re: NBA Draft Day Thread
The shooting is starting to scare the crap out of me. Getting early 2019 season brickfest flashbacks. No, please God no.
When luck shuts the door skill comes in through the window.

Not good imo - we need to put them together and move up.

Rubio shot 36% from 3 this year. The old Rubio no longer exists. He's a solid shooter. 86% from FT also.

OKC is going to pick Poku at 17. I'd bet on it.

i don't know why you guys want him. he's going to stay that thin until he's 40. Classic Wolves type of pick or udfa signing though in the past. I can't handle how thin he is and don't want to see it happen. Can't name a single player besides KG who grew up once here. it was my only concern on haliburton, the only one.

Re: NBA Draft Day Thread
Rosas HAS to have a plan for the forward positions. Hopefully that can shoot. With no cap space and very limited assets, it’ll be tough though.
