Umm, no thanks
The league is about 2-way players, amazing as heralded as Calhoun was for D guys like Gay & Lamb came out of UConn

Funny. This board is about 2-way posters. Guys who can praise and offer constructive criticism. Clearly you are not.

Can you please find a new home...........it's beyond pathetic to find the darkness in everything even semi-good.

This isn't the Syracuse board
Rudy has always been a vastly underrated player IMO. Remember doing a stat comparison between him and Paul George 2-3 years back and it was nearly identical. Also has always been a really cool guy who reps UConn and seems excited to talk about the program in the times I've met him. Hope he latches on to a good situation!
Would be very interesting!

Poor man's Durant, kind of makes sense.

It depends on if the injury has made him a starter or a 6th man. I think his current ability would determine where he lands.

I'm not sure I fully agree, but I do think he's become underrated the past couple years.
His contract was so overly scrutinized that people seem to forget he's actually a pretty good player (especially offensively). And with the recent increases to the cap, he might not even be overpaid anymore.
If he's healthy, he'd be a really nice fit in OKC.

I figured he said something typically stupid - so typically JSM
I have him as one of the dregs I ignore and really don't care what he says or thinks

Like to see him as a Hornet, but that owner never seems to make players better, rather worse
Maybe he made Rip better but even that's a stretch
Of course when he played he made everyone better

What does this have to do with the fact Rudy is a terrible defensive player?
I like Rudy, thanks for blowing the G Mason game and not giving a care about college hoops at the end

You're saying Gay is a good defensive player? What don't you agree with with my post?

No way
Rudy is not a winning player, made a lot of $$ never won anything. Won 3 playoff games in 10+ years and never won a playoff series. Rudy doesn't care about winning. He cares about $$ and has plenty.
Emeka, is a huge bust as a #2, won a total of 2 playoff games.
I love UConn hoops and players, and love their success, but man.

It's because of this post I took JSM off ignore. You are going to make me say it, he's not wrong. Rudy isn't about winning. Teams get better the day he walks out the door. This headline has it right: Rudy Gay Isn’t a Terrible Option for the Brooklyn Nets

Just cause teams get better doesn't mean he's "not about winning". A lot of y'all are acting like he purposely loses games/makes his team worse. The Grizzlies got better, not much better, because Marc developed a lot and Conley the same, the Raptors did because him leaving freed up Lowry and Demar to be the two primary options, and Lowry just flat out skyrocketed in terms of production. The Kings were never really good to befin with. If Rudy can go to a good situation, maybe sacrifice being the 6th man, he can help every team in the league.
