You think those 3 are better options?

Being the best passer is only so useful if you cant create offense because no one respects your scoring ability. John Stockton could make so many great passes because he could finish at the rim and hit a jump shot, things Rubio consistently finishes towards the bottom of the league at.

Than Rubio? For us as presently constituted, yes.
Oh, so you were adding on to Hill.
I would rather get Rubio than D-Will, but yeah to Teo/Beverly.
If I went with Deron it'd be more of a see-what-happens-with-Exum kind of move.
Everything depends on Hayward. I would not sign Teo before Hayward and if we needed a point guard pre-free agency Beverly and Rubio are my preferred options.... in that order.
Ricky gets a ton of deflections, loose balls, and steals. I can only imagine that would improve with Gobert behind him. If we get him I will talk myself into the second half of his last year... if we don't I will say its a complete fluke.
They could have gotten D-Will during the trade deadline, they didnt. I just dont see it happening.
So maybe that should yell you they just didn't want Dwill.Yeah, and apparently passed to not get in the way of Exum's development but then started Mack. Whiff.
There will be sitting and waiting.Who we sign at pg has nothing to do with signing Hayward. On July 1st, DL will offer Hayward the biggest contract Hayward can get, and then he will email Hill's agent DL's best offer with a deadline for accepting.
The one thing DL won't do is sit around waiting for Hayward and Hill to decide. If he can pick up Milos or another suitable pg for $8 million, he won't wait for Hill to decide, because he can't. If following this approach leaves him with 6 point guards by mid-July, then he will fix it through trades.
So maybe that should yell you they just didn't want Dwill.

Anyway, it's already been mentioned that to play to Rubio's strengths he has to have the ball in his hands. We have a few people control the ball and we move it around. This was one of the reasons Nash and Kobe was a colossal failure -- for each of them to be successful they needed the ball in their hands, even though Nash was pass-first. And this is Rubio we're talking about, not Nash.
Nah, he wanted the Jazz and they just didn't want him.I thought it was understood we would have claimed him but he wanted to try for a title and we were setting up for this offseason a la Joe Jesus.
I would be a little hesitant on dwill unless Hayward is back and he is cool with it. His talent isn't worth a chemistry disruption
Did you really just compare Teodosic to Nash? You didn't compare you basically said he is.
Steve Nash won back-to-back MVP's at the ages of 30 and 31.

Usage rate isn't time with ball in hand. If you want that look at touch stats on nba.comNot really true, but I'll play this game.
Last year, Hill posted roughly a 24% usage rate. Rubio, post LaVine, posted easily his highest usage rate of....about 24%! So he's never had the ball more than what Hill did for us. Would that be too much?
