Ricky Rubio: Reportedly Staying In Spain

[Kill_Bill_Pana]

Sometimes Lj and his wife do toss some stupid pinkies onto decent posters like stretch, but yours is well deserved IMHO.

Why? I have followed all the rules here.

[Kill_Bill_Pana]

Why don't you just put it in one of the Olympiakkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkos threads?

The pink thing will not let me. You can only respond to threads for the current day.

[ChumpDumper]

sucks to be you then.

You have caused many many fights and arguments in this forum.......how come you have never been pinked?

Whoever thought of that, is a genius.

Because I don't lose my like you do.

I also leave my IP address unhidden.

If that was the standard, the majority of posters here would be pinked.

Here is proof of what I say as the LIAR Chmupdumper keeps spreading his lies about me.

This has nothing to do with Rubio.

No lie.

Quit spamming.

Rubio may play in Europe next season (although joining the Wolves is the most probable outcome), but he won't stay with Joventut.

The Kleiza signing isn't a certain thing yet. Olympiacos will be spending insane money next season.

Kleiza's agent already announced it a done deal yesterday. So consider him an Olympiacos player.

Also Olympiacos said they will release Thomas Kelati so that they can sign another NBA player which according to rumors is either Raymond Felton, Allen Iverson, or Nate Robinson.

Kleiza was tired of the shower-time gang rapes.....same reason why people dont stick around long at KBPs apartment

Euro trash loves digging through our garbage bins.

Euroleague=The NBA Goodwill dept.

Funny how Rockets have 2 starters from this good will trash bin.

The difference is our eighth man off the bench will be your team saviour, but your best players will only be role players in the NBA at best. Von Wafer got 5.5 million Euros for two years when he couldn't get more than 1.5 million in the NBA.

why is there a rule allowing a NBA team to only contribute $500,000 for a buyout again?

Nate better not go. i like watching him play

Are you an idiot? Wafer will be an average level starter player at Euroleague level.

[Kill_Bill_Pana]

You don't get it. We take your best players, pay them less money, while you take our worst players, and pay them more money.

Wafer is not the worst NBA player.

Scola and Andersen were never ever the best players in Europe.

[Kill_Bill_Pana]

Who was better than Scola 3 years ago?

This is a joke right?

Siskauskas
Spanoulis
Papaloukas
Parker

Scola was never at any point the best Euroleague player. NBA fans are by far the dumbest of all sports fans in world.

[Kill_Bill_Pana]

Yeah and according to you Iverson will be a role player as well.

You are not even a basketball fan.

Wafer will be far better in Europe than Iverson would be. Not even close.

[YellowFever]

How is that Rubio's fault?

Rubio has to pay his Spanish team 6.6 million dollars to get out of his contract. The Timberwolves can pay ONLY 500k of that. So Rubio has to pay basically all of that buyout out of his own pocket. He doesn't have that much money and has been seeking endorsement deals to cover the cost of the buyout.

That is why it's Rubio's fault.

I mean wtf did he expect?

Edit: And another thing, are the Wolves management this stupid to draft a guy with that much baggage? Guess so.

[BG_Spurs_Fan]

If they are able to convince Rubio and Pekovic ( a former pick ) to sign in a year or two, then Minny will have a pretty good young core.If I'm not mistaken this is Pekovic's last season in Greece and he might be open to a move to the NBA next summer. He was their 31st pick so will be able to get a decent contract too.

Edit: And another thing, are the Wolves management this stupid to draft a guy with that much baggage? Guess so.

What's the big deal? You let him play out the two years overseas knowing you got a PG with great potential with the #5 pick in an awful draft. It's not like Minnesota is competing for a playoff spot right now.

[Kriz-Maxima]

Yeah, I don't get whats the big deal either. It seems it was a risk that the Wolves deemed worthy to take. In a couple of years they still have an incredibly young, perhaps good PG coming to the team for cheap. If he doesn't want to come to Minny I guess they can trade his rights as a sweetener in a trade.

And I don't get why people seem to think Rubio is screwing them over, his buyout was well known before the draft, and everybody knew he couldn't pay. If in a couple of years he still doesn't want to come to Minny, no buyout involved, then people can talk about him being an asshole.
