Panathinaikos Is Trying To Get Tiago Splitter

Just as much as Paul, Williams or Nash are top-10 PGs in the NBA.

It's funny that people underrated Rubio because he's young. If it was a 30years old doing what Rubio is doing I suspect he'd be considered the top PG. Barcelona is decimating teams left and right, Rubio is dominating pretty much every high-level PG he's matched up with in the last year, he changes games with his defence alone (even Tony Parker can testify about this). The fact that he's young and doesn't have a strong record behind means nothing to his current level. I can see it now: Barcelona winning everything, Rubio being nominated to the All-Euroleague team and people still using the same arguments "oh, he still has done so little compared to so and so, he's too young, not enough experience, bla bla". This same process also happens in the NBA, btw, people are slow to catch up with new realities.

You have obvious never even see a Euroleague game. It is fair to consider Rubio as a top 5-10 Euroleague point guard candidate. It is absurd and ridiculous to claim he is best point guard in Euroleague.

You are just a big joker and a troller.

This is a joke.

McIntyre is better than Rubio

Lakovic is better than Rubio

Holden is better than Rubio

Prigioni is better than Rubio

Lull is better than Rubio

Planinic is better than Rubio

McCalebb is better than Rubio

Logan is better than Rubio

M Popovich is better than Rubio

Jamont Gordon is better than Rubio

Roko Ukic is better than Rubio

Jaric is better than Rubio

Washington is better than Rubio

Charalabidis is better than Rubio

Zisis, Cabezas, Ribas, Huertas, Keys, Jaaber, Wisniewski, Beverly, Rasic, Cook are in general about the same level , some a little better than him, the same, or a little worse.

I am only even mentioning Euroleague and Eurocup point guards that come to mind.

And Rubio is only a little bit better than Batis, Papamakarios, N Calathes, Lopez and players like that. Sure he is much better than Sada and guys in that level but big deal.

If you really believe he is better than all these other players it is 100% and simple fact that you do not know anything about these other players and probably have never even seen them play. Because many of them are much MUCH better than Rubio in this time.

In a club like Siena, Olympiacos, I doubt if he would even see the court to be honest. He is one of the best European point guard ever for his age but this other talk is just a dream world of imaginary NBA BS. If NBA fans are so much full of such crazy delusions about how good Rubio really is then he will be the biggest bust of NBA history.

You are expecting a basketball god and he is just a good player.

It is fair to consider Rubio as a top 5-10 Euroleague point guard candidate.

You need to pull your together, KBP. Yesterday it was a joke to suggest he was the 4th best PG and there were dozens of guys better than him just in the Euroleague. He wouldn't even see the floor in some teams. Today he's already a top-5 PG? Wow, talk about a quick improvement. At this rate he'll be better than Magic by the end of next week.

Btw, I felt sorry for McCalebb tonight. At one point he didn't even want to bring the ball up court any more.

Btw, KBP, congrats for the qualification of all the A1 Ethniki teams to the Euroleague quarter-finals. And to the Eurocup Final 8. They're really showing which is the strongest league in Europe. Well done!

[BlackSwordsMan]

why doesn't KBP have his countries flag under his name?

[mogrovejo]

Pathetic monkeys...

You are just a fool. I said it is fair to CONSIDER him a CANDIDATE for 5-10 best point guard in Euroleague. I did NOT say he is 5-10 best Euroleague point guard. Because he definite is NOT. But to at least make a discussion for such with him in this area is acceptable conversation.

Call him best point guard in Euroleague is a stupid joke and you are here only to troll.

saying I'd rank him in a top 10, I meant let's say between 5 and 10. I'm not a fan of ranking guys in most of cases between 1 and 2 1 and 3 etc.. you can discuss all night long.
