With Roy/Batum being our starting 2/3 & Rudy's inability to defend the 1 if he was to play there... I think this offseason we come to a major cross roads with Portlands favorite Spaniard. - The way I see it, we have two options this offseason in regards to how to approach Rudy & his future. - 1) Commit to Rudy. Give him more minutes. Maybe look into acquiring the rights of Ricky Rubio - Immediately making Rudy more comfortable & effective in Portland. The teenage phenom reminds me of Steve Nash on offense with Jason Kidd esqe defense(If he fills out his body). - 2) Trade Rudy, make a move for a wing player who can play good defense, add some toughness with rebounding etc. A few players who come to mind are Mikael Pietrus. Finals experience, plays with Batum in the offseason, also shooting 3's at a higher clip then Rudy this year. Would be a great addition. Dahntay Jones, conference finals with Denver last year, great scrappy defender not afraid to get into the grits of superstars like Kobe or Wade, A Coach K disciple is always welcome in my opinion. Lastly a young fella, Terrence Williams.Greatrebounder, excellent passer & a good defender. Played with Roy on the Seattle playgrounds, has been quoted saying "he taught me everything I know about basketball... Except how to shoot".Commit to Rudy? Or commit to team defense?
