Teague had a bad start, but turned it around and was good this year. It's just an odd fit to me since his defense will drive Tibs nuts.

MourningView posted:And he could play off ball really well although that being an issue depends on getting Hayward back. But yeah Rubio on a team that already struggled with spacing seems real bad The last two seasons he took the worst spacing team in the league and they had a 12th and 10th best offense. If Utah can keep their FA, their offense will look better under Rubio. The scoring difference is 5 pts a game between him and Hill, and Rubio will be generating more than that back with better looks for Gobert and Hood. WhyteRyce posted:Jeff Teague is my favorite "PG that people think is better than he actually is" Yeah, I'd rather just have Rubio, not super excited for Teague.

Ghost Dog posted:whats the risk? 2 ball dominant players can work fine together even without good offball games, and both players can easily work offball. is the risk that patrick beverly suddenly becomes a top 5 pg all time? that massively upgrading their team might not win them a championship at the cost of....absolutely 0 part of their future? Injury, but that's a risk for everyone except LBJ so it's not a big deal.

I'm glad Ricky Rubio finally got traded so Rockets fans can stop suggesting that for a yearG-Hawk posted:per Houston chronicle, the Rockets intend to bring over Zhou Qi. He needs to put on about 50 pounds to not be considered at-risk for an eating disorder. He's gonna get pushed around in the D-League for like two years minimum. That said, he's the next Yao Ming as far as I'm concerned

Teague is only 2 years younger than Lowry and way way worse. The only reason to get Teague is if he costs half as much, which means the Wolves can get a good stretch PF.

Eltoasto posted:Why? I can understand preferring Lowry or Hill, but Teague was better than Rubio last year. He scored 4 more points per game, was not as good of a distributor, and was not nearly the same defensive level. He's a better shooter, but Teague's contract will probably be 2x what Rubio's is. I'd rather have Rubio and a fixed bench than Teague and the horror show we had last year.

Teague is great at nothing, bad at nothing (closest thing would be his defensive awareness). He probably makes more sense on the wolves where Butler will do a lot of ball handling than Rubio but is all in all I think a worse player, and certainly a less exciting one

He's essential to the killer line ups. Don't know who you replace him with when you're playing small. It's a loss but ultimately a superficial one. His playoff/finals numbers have been on the decline each year.

If Teague costs over 20 million I think I might rather give the keys to Tyus and go make a huge splash somewhere else. Offer that OKC pick and their #16 for a Paul George rental.

Even though the Warriors are agents provocateurs, is it OK to like them? https://66thtake.wordpress.com/2017/06/30/hercules-and-the-hydra/ PS I am happy the Hornets drafted a good player with a good name.
