Rubio is a much better shooter than Exum. Exum never shoots at a medium distance. I've never seen Exum get hot; Rubio 1/4 matches reaches 20+ points with very good% shooting.

Ricky
.553 .333 .338 .446 .337
Dante
.562 .306 .667 .500 .305

Ricky shouldnt shoot at medium distance... 33% shooting from 3 to 16 feet is terrible.

I haven't been very impressed with Ricky's passing since he has gotten here. Especially because that is what he's known for. Not be confused with his ability to run an offense.
Also think his high BBIQ is way overblown. Ricky stans are very similar to Dante stans.

Where the **** did this "stans" thing come from?

There are times he makes some great passes, but I am a little bit on this corner... not necessarily because he doesn't throw crazy Jokic or Teodosic passes (though I expected more of those) its because of some of the horrible turnovers he has. Some I can see what he is seeing and why it didn't work out... some don't have a prayer.

The other BBIQ issue I have with him is his early shot clock shots... occasionally he will take a bad shot early in the clock... usually a long two off the dribble and I wished we had worked for a better shot. When the clock is running down I get it and am fine with him taking that shot. Open threes early in the clock I'm also cool with.

He's not dumb and even smart players make dumb plays... I just don't see him as the elite of the elite like some do. He's very good.
 
It is obvious that it is better to continue reading in this forum than to try to comment on anything. Holy Virgin if they are saying until dante and ricky have many things in common. And I really respect Dante a lot but by God, he will never reach the sole of the shoe to ricky .. If Ricky fixed his head and confidence problems, it would be simply base top and then it would be you who would not deserve to have it. And if I say problems of confidence and head because I give faith that if they saw it for example training puts them all and of all colors. Or do not you see that from the free kick should be one of the best percentages have ?. But well throw it out, do not renew it, keep criticizing it disproportionately, put Dante as a starter or sign up again to G Hill if that's what you want, but if a franchise surrounds you with shooters including an open 4 and a center that has some good movement in the post, ricky goes to 10 assists per game, whether they want to see it or not. PS: haha yes, I am using a translator because my English is medium pulling to low and Spanish has many more verbs and expressions than English. My apologies. Greetings and I will continue reading

I agree with this. I also dont know why people claim him to be a good defender. He has been terrible on defense. He can not stay in front of anyone in this league this season. I think people equate effort to being good at something.

The only thing Rubio seems good at is running the offense, dribbling the ball, and getting things set up.
 
If you surround any point guard with shooters and an athletic center they certainly should go for 10 assists a game.

Hello, this is my first and only message that I am going to write.
I read to you every day and sincerely I bite my lips a hundred times not to answer, But I am a person more to listen than to speak and that is why I never write or I will do it again.

I am from a city very close to where Ricky was born and grew up and one of the European cribs of basketball.
I have followed him since he was 12 years old and he has always "always" had the same problem with the fans, who despise him in a way that is sometimes even despicable.

I do not know if for many people basketball is just throwing a basket or have the RW physicist or is that they directly have the same IQ .. But what if that is that in this forum, you are very unfair with ricky

For starters I will say that if Ricky is not injured, the match against the BUCKS would have been won.
Why ricky the only problem he has always had and continues to have is the same and his own head.
If jazz was smart, I would hire the best psychologist in the country because that is their problem.
Start the game and just watch it run or launch its first shot, and I know what version of ricky we'll see.
And you with your criticisms, often excessive help nothing and I'm sure that ricky you read.

I keep saying, that in all the teams where ricky has played, in all the teams the fans say that ricky will end up being a substitute blah blah and it never happens. Not even the square head of Thibodeau, first with the choice of kris Dunn and then with his hobby to keep it in the corner he could get it

Ricky is happy in jazz because the technicians trust him. but the jazz game is not the ideal game for ricky's skills.
1 º Because despite having a defensive center èlite like Gobert, is a fairly limited type offensively and the ball escapes much of the hands "and never read anyone doing that self-criticism."
2º. Because ricky plays much better surrounded by athletic and fast people like for example JCrowder
and 3rd. because you have to put in a corner guys like KL or Mirotic or bjelica etc.
Make point 2 and 3 happen and try to get better with Gobert and I'm sure you have a team to contender with.
He is a pass TOP, TOP IQ and countertake TOP, but do not ask him to be a TOP shooter because he will never be and has not come to the world to be ... It is not his mission.
Greetings to all

Are we in the presence of Ricky's mom? His Uncle? His former Coach? Eh, Tio Tio!

Or is this a cry for help from Tricky Ricky himself? My spanish isn't as polished as it once was but if I remember right 'El Front' is english for the 'FRONT'. As in, a facade, a deception, a disguise. Octopussy, El Thief, The eSpanish eSamurai... eres tu? If so... please keep having those great games that seem to come around more often than they used to. Please no more 0 - 9 starts. Oh yeah... and win. That will keep us happy for the most part. Good luck with the Hammy.

Yes, there are days that shoot very badly and days that shoot very well; He needs to have good feelings. But when he has them, without a doubt, he can be the best player on the court. This year has been the best player on the court a good handful of games. Anyway, he did a lot better basketball in the Wolves; he had classmates who were better suited to his abilities. I also think that the serious knee and ankle injuries he had have affected his basketball.
