Ricky rubio and Donovan Mitchell are a really fun backcourt

It hadn’t occurred to me until reading this thread that this could have easily been our backcourt but we passed on both of them. Great.

That was a clear call back then, too, wasn’t it? To everyone but Phil.

It appears that what happened was that it was on the table, Phil asked them to throw in something else, they said no. He decided to wait them out and then they changed their minds.

Yeah, Phil asked for the great Bjelica

You can’t just pass on the opportunity to get a midrange shooter big.

Was rose for Rubio ever on the table, or rumors created by us?

Watching Anderson go off for Houston I was thinking how much better he would be on okc than melo is…
@41
I was thinking the same thing about Russ. But putting shooters and scorers around doesnt work either. That’s why they traded mcbuckets and kanter to us because they wanted another dominant player but it didn’t work either so I don’t k is what you do with Russel.

He might be a great second option but he always needs the ball in His hands.

With the benefit of hindsight we should have traded Derrick Rose for Ricky Rubio

With the benefit of hindsight we should have traded Rose for a Twix bar.

I mean Mitchell is nowhere close to Ben Simmons but he’s very good for a rookie.
