deservedly so

Brandon Jennings whos projected right around 10th called Rubio overrated.

"I just shoot the ball better than he can. The only thing I've seen him do sometimes is when he has a home run pass or something like that. I think the dude is just all hype. I can't even front. I'm just going to be real with you guys."

Watching video on Rubio he has amazing handling skills. But cant shoot at ALL.

Probably not. But ESPN even says he has no outside shot. But with all the other skills he has it wont matter. He made some passes didnt think were possible.

I guess well see. Brandon Jennings is the kid that bailed on college to go to Europe, right?

The only reason why it's not the annual "Who are the Clips going to waste a draft pick on this year" is because we already know that answer...

**HiltonMagic** · 06-25-2009, 06:34 PM

i agree on the outside shot. it's pretty obvious. but shooting isn't everything

Anyone watch Around the Horn today? KB said "the big man" is no longer needed in the NBA today. Thoughts?

I think it'd almost be worth it if they passed up on Griffin, just to watch the sporting world die of shock. At that point, the Clippers could reveal that Al Davis is really calling the shots...
