Rockets showing interest in trading for Ricky Rubio?

What is clutchfans obsession with Rubio?

 

It's really one guy's obsession with Rubio haha.

TBH he is a great complementary PG for Bev, but he needs to come at a low cost, i.e. not Pek's contract.

 

Skillswise isn't Rubio the same exact player he was when he got in the league? People kept saying he can develop his shot but he hasn't...so he's pretty much reached his ceiling. I think the Wolves realized this which is why they are so interested in Kris Dunn, who's ceiling is a way more athletic Rubio that can score.

 

TrYing to verify but I got nothing right now. I would think if this deal really on the table that some team would have already bitten on it. So I'm having difficulty believing it is true too.

 

Back from the dead yet again! It's... The Thread That Refused To Die!

If we get Rubio and keep Brewer im done

 

Oh ur busy with the draft huh? Lol this delusional guy

 

The insider newsletter is where it's at

 

Championship teams come down to good rosters, not turnovers from one player.

 

If we bought into the system (we meaning Harden) and we had 3 point shooters at the SF and PF position it would work well. We won't do anything though so it doesn't matter.

 

plz no wubio

 

Man, gotta a bad feeling we may trade for him.

 

Wolves just took Kris Dunn - a POINT GUARD. Either way Rubio is on the way out. This could be a great bargain if we play our chips right. Could be had for peanuts.

 

I'll take Rubio if we get rid of Dekker and Brewer. In other words, I'll take Rubio for nothing of value.

i don't see why Houston would take up 15 mill in their cap room with someone who needs the ball in his hands more than James. I'm pretty sure MDA wants Harden controlling things...

 

Makes this all the more awkard:

Rubio would get this team in the direction that we need it to go.

Sure, he has his flaws (can't shoot, bad +/-, etc.) but the guy is a facilitator. Exactly what we need. Let him contribute 4-8 apg to Harden, that's more points for our scorer.

Not to mention, Rubio is a top 5 defensive PG in the league.

Give me Rubio + Pekovic (though costly, will be a nice fill-in for a developing front-court) + pick(s) for KJ + Jones + both '16 2nd rounders and maybe a fillet.

 

Okay jopat
