cant wait to see him play in the NBA

[monosylab1k]

This guy is going to sit on someones bench for two season and go back home.

ROFL and if the Lakers pulled some more miracle bullshit out of their ass and moved up to draft him, we'll get this instead -


This guy is going to revolutionize the point guard position in a way we haven't seen since Magic.

He's not Greek. He'll be a productive NBA player.

His biological father is Greek you fucking dumbass.

Maybe for first part yes. He would be on bench of a big Euroleague club right now also. He plays in a crap level team. But back in Europe in 2 years? You are a real stupid loser. He is already the next golden child of ESPN you fool. Stern and ESPN will do whatever they must to protect this new money bag.

[Tacker]

His biological father is Greek you fucking dumbass.

Rage.

[ginobili's bald spot]

His biological father is Greek you fucking dumbass.

I didn't realize his father was a butt fucking greek faggot. You're right... he will suck then.

[layupdrill]

LOL at some of the replies.
Ricky will do fine in the league.

[bdictjames]

No offense Pana but white PG'S tend to believe that defense is a disease. And when is the last time one led an NBA team to a title.

White Chocolate dont count either.
Rubio's arms are built for defense. I remember him abusing the Chinese guards in the Olympics.. they can't even get the ball past halfcourt.

Tony Parker is close enough.

[Kill_Bill_Pana]

Hes still white. And his father being Greek is not going to prevent him from sitting on someones bench. Greeks are white too. Who could he guard Pana? Let me guess. You hoping for another JJ Barrera?

On a side note. Was that you throwing beer bottles and pennies at the Nuggets game last night?

He is a good defender you moron. He would be on bench of most big Euroleague club right now also so what is your fucking point? You expect 18 year old point guard to dominate NBA right away? Stupid.

[DAF86]

:nope

I dont like white PG's. Sorry...:hat

So you are a racist then?

[Kill_Bill_Pana]

Son, I like that ass in your sig.

You probably do not have enough manhood for that ass.

[angelbelow]

is he coming over this year though?

[gaKNOW!blee]

Parker is my man. But whatever works for you son. Go Obama!!!


ok.

[DAF86]

Son, I like that ass in your sig.

White PGs no, but white asses yes. Got it.

[SpursGO]

Ricky Rubio is AMAZING, this kid will be something special. Everyone hates on him because he didnt get like 20 points vs Team USA in olympic finals, but then again people overall are stupid and expect prospects to out-do current nba superstars. The kid has amazing handles, so he wont be a turnover machine, but his knowledge of the game is superb, the only knock on him is his jumpshot but hes been working on it and its getting better. Coming into the league, he will be a Sergio Rodriguez, but after that, hes gonna be his own style of player, nobody will be like him.

[DAF86]

One serves a purpose, and the other dont.:lol

This ass serves multiple purposes, bealive me. :lol

[Indazone]

Now this thread is funny :lol

This thread isn't about Rubio anymore. Everyone here knows Rubio rep.

Yes this is correct however he is a very huge turnover machine. maybe biggest ever.

[Kill_Bill_Pana]

Ok now, are you a chic, or just homo. I know in Greece it all means the same, but you got me confused saying your ass serves multiple pruposes.

3-5 percent of Greece population is gay. 33-40 percent of LA population is gay. This is base on stats. You are sure one to talk about others gayness.

[DAF86]

"This ass" as in: "this girls' ass" you know 'cause she is in my sig (but you're the one with english as his first language so I apoligize if I didn't make myself understand). And I'm not greek, and I fucked THIS ass, so no I'm not gay.

[Kill_Bill_Pana]

Im just fucking with you man.

Yes this do sound like something a fag would say.

[DAF86]

Im just fucking with you man.

It's cool I just wanted to have a chance to say that I tapped that :D

[DAF86]

You are way off Pana. We struck down Homo mariage with a MIGHTY BLOW jus a few months ago. I hear they may get it in NY though. Where do you get your stats from. I thought Greece was majority homos. Fucking American media...:lol

Oh, and that girl in my sig name is Naomi Russell. I just found her in some porn and she looks a little coked out like BRHornets said, Shes coming down tomorrow.

The real question is whether or not VSpan has the courage to come back to the NBA.

DD

How exactly is a guard in the NBA going to get away with a set shot in place of a jumpshot?

Top NBA prospect Rubio to enter draft (http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news?slug=ap-draft-rubio&prov=ap&type=lgns)

Spanish teenager Ricky Rubio has decided to enter the NBA draft.

The 18-year-old Rubio, who was under contract with Spanish club DKV Joventut through 2011, has been rated as one of the top picks for the June 25 draft.

“I’m going into the draft because I’ve been told that I’ll go high. That’s why I’ve entered,” Rubio said Tuesday. “No basketball player can say no to a high draft spot. That reassures you going over there, the security that your name is recognized.”

Rubio, who was a member of Spain’s silver medal-winning team at the Beijing Olympics last summer, can still withdraw up to 10 days before the draft at Madison Square Garden.

“My agent will speak to the teams and I’ll go to any of them,” said Rubio, who believes that the Sacramento Kings, Los Angeles Clippers and Washington Wizards appear to be frontrunners.

Rubio wasn’t worried about his $7.8 million buyout clause with Joventut affecting his position.

“That can be a drawback but I’m not worried because my agent is working it out,” he said.

Rubio has averaged 9.9 points and 5.7 assists this season for Joventut. The 6-foot-2 point guard turns 19 in October, meeting the NBA’s minimum age requirement.

[Pistons < Spurs]

Spanish newspaper “Marca” broke the not very surprising news yesterday that Ricky Rubio will be entering his name in this year’s draft. Rubio’s buyout situation—he has two years left on his contract, and will need to pay 6 million dollars to free himself—remains unresolved, though, meaning still needs to reach an agreement with his team, DKV Joventut, if he’s to play in the NBA next year.

Unfortunately for Rubio, Joventut continues to insist, this time via a notice on their official website, that they are not planning on compromising anytime soon, stating that Rubio will have to pay his buyout in full if he plans on leaving for the NBA. They do appear willing to settle for a smaller buyout in 2010, though, if Rubio and his camp are willing to wait that long.

Rubio on his part, came out publicly on Tuesday and stated for the first time under no uncertain terms that it’s his wish to leave for the NBA this summer—a move made with very clear intentions. The problem is that all the leverage right now is with the team that holds his contract, as they do not appear to have any real reason to compromise.

One possibility that has been brought up is for Rubio’s camp to offer a percentage of his second NBA contract as a means to entice to Joventut to his lower buyout immediately.

There likely will not be any type of resolution to this situation until very close to the withdrawal deadline on June 15th.

The while circus around his future may or may not be affecting his play at this point—Rubio scored 13 points on 2-8 shooting from the field in a win over Pamesa Valencia on Sunday, going 9-10 from the free throw line while dishing out 7 assists to go along with a season high 6 turnovers and 6 steals.

On a separate note, we’ve learned that Rubio does not plan on playing at the Reebok EuroCamp in Treviso, despite an official announcement from Reebok confirming otherwise.

Dumb move...he needs to spend next year getting some actual playing time and working on his game, not riding the pine for the clippers.
