    I was a little bummed on Rui last year at times but he did play well in the playoffs and his 3 point shooting was really good. I’d like to see what he can do with the starters this season especially with Ayton in the mix. He’s got to step up his D and rebounding but he should get plenty of open looks from distance next to three great passers and a real center.

    Rui is a great 6th man. That's his best role IMO, nothing wrong with that.

    I'm confident Rui and his team will realize the grass isn't always greener, especially after having spent the first few years of his career with the Wizards. Even if he's coming off the bench, Rui is a key contributor to the most famous basketball team in the world that just acquired a 26 year old superstar. There are a ton of wings who would love to sign up to be spoon fed corner threes by Luka Doncic. So think hard about taking a million or two per year more from some bad team in free agency next year.

    I heard he won’t share his sushi recipes with teammates, so he probably has to go

    You haven’t missed much. Holly weird has just bowed to specific agendas and churned out either new garbage or never ending sequels for the last 20 years or so.
    The last movie that blew me away that I watched in a theatre was the OG ”Matrix” flick and the last one that had me in stitches on the big screen was the first “Super Troopers” movie.
