Congrats on being an idiot, like me.

Ha, Why does he even try shooting 3 Pointers.

I still cannot grasp what is so good about this guy.

The international game is completely different to that of the NBA. To be honest, I don't even know why. Essentially it's the same thing but just with a legal zone defence, but the stats in an international game pretty much mean nothing. That's not to say Rubio will be superb in the States, but yeah just pointing it out.

Even Jason Kidd when he was drafted was ready to play anywherre and now this ****ing retarded boy who is like a steve nash version 2 without the shot and all the moves that any good basketball player can have, this retarded feels like Jesus.
The only thing is great for him is his basketball I.Q. but he hasn't the package move that any 18 yo player can have. He will be the next big flop of the NBA. He ain't got any D, any offense , just pass the ball. It will be easy to make him lose the game. You just have to defend the other players, let him have big spaces to shoot, on the pick n roll defend only under the rim and he will look like the worth basketball player ever selected as high.

His defense is highly touted, my friend, one of the better aspects of his game.

If his D is one of the better aspects of his game it means Rubio is very over-rated and bull****. When he did the workouts with the kings they said " We though he was a better defender, he is like Steve Nash without the shoot...". What better than a 1 on 1 game to evaluate the defense on the man! He was garbage for this. Maybe he has good stat in Europe but in NBA he couldn't guard any point guard
So, no D, no O, he is not enough dangerous at this time to be effective even with pick n roll plays cauz everybody knows that you only got to guard the other and let him space to shoot or go to the rim .....to win against him.

Everybody knows he has a great felling for the game, but the other aspects of his game are poor at this time. He only got credit cauz he is very young and can improve but in my mind he is like so many young talent that will never develop enough the other aspects of their game through the years.
I project a big flop. And the way he doesn't want to play for the T-Wolves will be ironical in many years. Believe me, its 50/50 that he will be the biggest flop of the NBA( even bigger than Kwame Brown cauz he wasn't pretencious).

Great move Minny by selecting him 5th overall! Seriously though, great job getting Flynn with the 6th pick even though I would rather have Curry running the show...
