(Actually, if you read this piece between Tom Ziller and Moore on Fanhouse, it’s clear I’m not the only one who believes Memphis is best off taking Evans. It’s quite the doozy in several ways. Read this on Rubio and Thabeet as well.) [...] [...] Matt Moore, of Hardwood Paroxysm, asks the Memphis Grizzlies to do the right thing, and draft Tyreke Evans.

New York. Minnesota. Even the Clippers though Dunleavy will give up Griffin over his cold, dead body. Or if you offer a bloated contract with little to no value, apparently, since that’s been all their other moves. Rubio could be a true facillitator for the Wizards, a franchise player for the Kings, the next evolution for the Warriors, or the Nash Toronto wants but can’t have. But to Memphis? He’s a pain the ass that may decide to play chicken with them; a player that won’t sell as many tickets as other players can (we’ve seen the way Memphis gets attached to awkward looking Spanish dudes), doesn’t provide them an inside scorer, makes their investment in Mike Conley seem completely vapid, and generally is a terrible fit.” [...] [...] Matt Moore of Hardwood Paroxysm on Rubio and the Grizz: “Rubio has the potential to be a game-changer (so to speak) for certain teams.
