I've seen roadkill with less red on it than Rubio's shot chart.
truly awful oh my god
he is awful, but i would STILL do a jr smith for rubio trade, you never know if fat boy felton will make an appearance again this season.

Yup. JR Smith and Fatton too can go.

He can't shoot jumpers. He can't make layups. Hence, why would anyone foul him? So he doesn't even get to take free throws.
So yes, please let's sign him up now, so Melo will have another great asset on the team he can selfishly ignore.
Lock this thread, burn it and send the ashes to the Anthony Weiner Campaign fund.
Rondo couldn't shoot either-teams used to lay off him. Have not seen enough of him to know whether he can handle a half court game.
The only deal I'd do for Rubio would be JR + any of the point guards. Rubio would help in distributing the ball, attacking the basket and in defense. He's a much better defender than Felton. But I don't think Minnesota would go for a deal like that.
