Ricky Rubio Injures Knee (UPDATE: Torn ACL, out for the season)

Well said. Ditto this.

 

that's awesome, I love it when players reach out to other players

 

rubio recently taunted someone about winning gold at the olympics. that person? kobe bryant. and now rubio's acl is destroyed by...kobe bryant. coincidence?

 

Man, I hope Rubio has a fast recovery. Had a promising season

 

That really sucks Dude finally comes here then get this injury.

Love watching him play and I hope he recovers quickly.

 

Workin for Leslie, now this.

 

Not that it wasn't true already, but Team USA games in the Olympics will be nothing more than a coronation tour. Spain's chances were already close to zero; now they ARE zero.

 

wow... sometimes its hard not to believe in curses

 

...ankle roll is not as serious.... should be back before the Olympics

 

Where is Kobe's apology. Kobe injuring another player getting Rubio back for dunking on him in the Olympics a couple years back. I remember that time when Kobe took out Yao with the knee to shin contact.

 

so sad...

the only positive out of this is OHMSS is banned, and we don't have to know his take on this.

 

Rubio didn't even make the all-star team what in the world are you talking about?

 

Kobe Bryant has no reason to apologize. It's unfortunate what happened to Rubio but Kobe is not wrong for not apologizing. Silly to criticize Kobe for that.

 

So if we were playing basketball & I drove into you and took out your ACL in you knee you wouldn't expect an apology. All the other superstars in the league have at least some class to at least wish RR a speedy recovery.

 

if u look at the replay closely, seems rubio's knee buckled before he flopped on kobe's drive, sort of have nothing to do with kobe, apologize for what?

 

No I wouldn't expect an apology nor would I want an apology. An apology won't bring my season back. Injuries are part of the game and like I said Kobe has no reason to apologize.

 

So his acl was torn with no contact sounds highly logical. Wasn't criticizing Kobe, guess you can't buy class. If all the other stars @ the minimum are offering there best wishes. Ever since Kobe got his nose busted he has been on ball hog win at all cost jack up 30 shots mode,worked before the road trip. But then they got embarrassed by the Pistons and Wizards it's win at all cost. They barley beat t wolves. Oh well.

 

It truly is sad to see Rubio's development halted by this. He could be the anti-Linsanity right now.

As for the Olympics, not like Spain would win. Besides, they already have a soccer team on god mode. This is USA's sport to win.

I would want an apology and a bag of cookies and brownies to add with that.

 

All of those guys have twitter something Kobe doesn't have. If Kobe did apologize nobody would know.
