He looks like a sweet little boy without the beard. I think they wear a beard to make them look tougher.

So do I. And every time I shave it, everybody, from my mother to my friends' children, ask me to grow it back because it's so cool. (and I look way too young without it)

That style is cool in the USA, too. At least, it's cool with people under the are of 50.

I've had a beard most of my adult life. Covers the pimples on my neck ...
The money I save in blades goes to my beer fund.

so advice for Rubio.
he shouldn't over dominate the ball since he's not a good finisher around the basket and not a good shotmaker off the dribble. but he can be a good catch and shoot guy in the midrange, think Dennis Johnson during his Celtics years, bird gets doubled in a close game, Kicks the ball out to DJ , and he's always clutch with his 18 footer.

we didn't sign rubio to play off the ball as a mid-range shooter. And he isn't even a decent shooter from mid-range. The BEST area he had from mid-range was at the left elbow: He took 49 total shots all season and made 43%. Every other mid-range area was below 40%.

Why would you take a pass first PG known for getting his teammates involved and known as a poor shooter and ask that he not dominate the ball and become a catch and shoot guy? Who would you play at PG instead? We signed him to play the role (facilitator) and position that was our most obvious and glaring weakness (PG). To ask him to move into a catch and shoot guy on this team is absolutely lunacy. Sorry SDC. This is a very poor take. Let's start playing Booker in the post while we're at it and convert Ayton into a PG.SDC wrote: ↑Fri Jul 26, 2019 8:36 amso advice for Rubio.

well, Book is pretty good in the post, and Ayton is a decent passer.AmareIsGod wrote: ↑Fri Jul 26, 2019 10:33 amWhy would you take a pass first PG known for getting his teammates involved and known as a poor shooter and ask that he not dominate the ball and become a catch and shoot guy?

Which is good but...
I am getting pretty excited about having a complete team for once. It may not be a great contending team but, at least we have a real PG and a real PF. We can’t help but to be better right?

I said he shouldn't dominate the ball too much. But he still shld be the primary ball handler when playing with Booker. Maybe 55% of the time he's the playmaker, 45% of the time it's Book.AmareIsGod wrote: ↑Fri Jul 26, 2019 10:33 amWhy would you take a pass first PG known for getting his teammates involved and known as a poor shooter and ask that he not dominate the ball and become a catch and shoot guy?

Because he may not be that effective of a pick and roll player if you want him to ball dominate.

They're probably off the dribble mid range shots, not open stand still 18 footers.Indy wrote: ↑Fri Jul 26, 2019 8:58 amwe didn't sign rubio to play off the ball as a mid-range shooter.
