What's new

Well, the good news is Rubio will definitely not be back next year.

People seem to forget that rubio rly didnt work well with rudy who hasnt got the best hands, improved but still. Rubio really sucks at the lob thats for sure, he is more used to play with bigs who have really high offensive repetoirs. Eg klove and KAT. He just doesnt fit.
And the Gasol brothers when he played for the Spanish national team.
 
Nobody has mentioned the kid Cook from GS! Is he a possible player in the Jazz scheme of things or not?
You have. A lot.

Ok, who is this Cook kid for GS and is he available for the right price? I suspect somebody has been talking about him on this thread before, but I wasn't paying no attention till tonight when he came in off the bench and made 3 straight three pointers! We could add him to our team, make him a starter and with our big guys underneath and Rubio distributing, we'd be up by 15 points at the end of each 1st QT!

Cook....is he the answer to our 3 point shooting woes???

Can we get that Cook kid from GS? They stack shooters on there team and he seems to be a good one with great potential for our team!

I've literally been saying Utah should get Quinn Cook since he was at Duke and buried in the G-League.Homeytennis knows. I dont even like Duke either.
 
I hope Ricky Rubio lands in Sacramento as the backup PG. That would be a good show. He'd be a massive upgrade from Frank Mason/Yogi Farrell and they really have the foundation for outstanding ball-movement in place, bigguys like Cauley-Stein and Bagley and Harry Giles are all very good passers.

Utah has no floor spacers the quality of buddy heild either.. Guys like Korver and Ingles are good, but frankly their not even close to that level of gunner.

With Bogdanovic on the floor tho, Ricky would have to keep the ball moving fast hot-potato style, which is what they do, their bigs run like bats out of hell..

I believe Sacramento, one way or another, is gonna end up in the playoffs next year. Thats just me tho.
 
Can we get a "Ricky Rubio Trade; Revisited" thread?!? I'd make it but the crabs around here would try to derail it to be about me, rather than the greivous oversight of D Lindz

The 2016 D-League ROY... The ppl laughing at the g-leauge are gonna look like complete fools in just a few years... The level of competition in that league is increasing drastically compared to pro leagues across the planet.

for all the stat whores out there, there's certainly a high-degree of ignorance about the prevailing stats of the G-League and the affect their players have on NBA rosters.


That gif should be posted in response to what the Jazz did instead of go after Quinn Cook... Ricky Rubio and the 2016 1st rd pick are sunken assets, while the champs are turning others trash to treasure...
 
Rubio had his shot. Exum and Neto were injured for most of the year. Snyder gave Rubio plenty of good looks in our offense. He let him play through inconsistent play and incessant turnovers. Our offensive scheme gave Rubio easy shots for most nba players. He just airballed them. Case in point, that last shot against Houston. It was an easy look for most nba guards these days and needed to be nailed.

Not sure why Rubio would be butt hurt.

If anything, utah revived his career after the Minnesota disaster.

I find your 'homey knows' statement laughable. No discredit to the g-league. As for Cook, he is just a role player who has a decent 3pt shoot. I'd rather have Royce.

Of course you would. Royce is our 4th-best guaranteed player.

He seems he truly loved it here (unlike Minny where it was always dysfunctional), thus he was disappointed we tried really hard to trade him. And he is an emotional player. At the end of the day, he probably said good things about Utah but we have been unable to read the whole interview.

What he's saying doesnt really make sense. It's several years (and several spots on the depth chart..) off the timeline of what im referring to.



It holds as much weight as me saying I'd rather have 1946 Rita Hayworth hangin arround the crib instead of this slut i'm currently seeing.

Snyder's system sucked *** for Rubio individually and I have no doubt that if he gets to go to a fast paced team he'll look a lot better than he did for most of his Jazz stint. I'm very interested to see where he goes I think he'll be a good fantasy pickup with the right team
Didn't he have his best season's in the NBA playing under Quinn's system?

Looked it up, He really did. Highest PPG, 3pt%, FG%, 3ptA/game, FGA/game. The only stat he got worse in was Assists.
