Hawks at Jazz...or Rudy's Revenge 7pm

Why would you worry how much he is getting paid? In your scenario we are worse team and how is that any better than paying Rubio fair market value?
Your anti-Exum bias is ridiculous lol, don't want to give Conley $33 mil a year despite clearly being a better player yet we shouldn't worry about how much Rubio gets paid.
 
First off games with most points scored as the measure for how well he played is a terrible measure. Secondly, those weren't his top 10 game scores. These were:

Half of those teams are crap teams. And yes he can occasionally become Rick Curry, but his inconsistency is undesirable.
Half of those teams are playoff bound, of those that aren't only Atlanta is what I would call a 'crap' team. You're also looking at this season, OP said he looked at Rubio's top ten games from last season.

In any case it looks like you proved his point. Ricky clearly doesn't only play well against bad teams.

I literally said 'highest scoring games' is a bad measure for 'playing well', idiot. And I then proceeded to show that even if that was what constituted playing well, he would still be wrong.

Where did I ever mention Exum? Are you seeing things? Maybe get off the glue.

The post you were quoting was directly suggesting that they would rather go with Exum than overpay Rubio lol. I don't think it's a coincidence that your narrative of no Conley because he costs too much changes for Rubio when the alternative suggested was to just roll with Exum.

How is going with Exum better then paying Rubio fair market value? It makes us worse team, plain and simple. Same like paying Conley 33 mil for two years. Does it make us contenders? No. So why break the bank for him?
 
I was so wrong about Kevin Huerter before the draft. He seems really solid.

I don't know why some were down on him. He looked like an impressive shooting prospect and now its starting to come to fruition.

He will make a nice weapon for years to come. The question is will he just be a specialist?

(you are looking at the wrong season)

While being a jerk on the internet is fun, might i suggest you improve your reading comprehension? That way you can be a jerk at the right times and not look foolish, like you do here.
