    Y U no focus on Rubio?

    Maybe he apologized or wished Rubio well in private. Does everything have to be made public to appease you?

    Doesn't have to made public. As a Rockets Fan and a fan of the game in general was this NBA season and the Olympics more interesting or less interesting with RR?

    Yeah, sure. I get your point, we all agree Rubio's injury is a huge loss to everyone, team and fans.

    But you were ragging on Kobe. Most of us here genetically hate Kobe, but this 'apologizing' or well-wishing thing is too much.

    Well wishing wasn't my original idea if you go back to post #79 of this tread the well wishing was from other stars in the league who weren't even involved in the play. A little much? Class is the way I see it. Ask yourself is this the 1st time you seen Kobe involved in a injury situation?

    The fuhrer must be tired of this crap. Just when he left a situation where casualties took out yao, he has to endure the loss of Ricky. NOOOOOOOOO!

    Are you serious, the injury was entirely Rubio's fault, he was trying to do a cheap trick by sliding his feet under kobe to make it look like a charge, literally the cheapest trick there is. He's a flopper, possibly the biggest flopper in the game, he got injured while trying to flop, if this had happened to a guy e.g. Ginobili you'd all be all over his ass.

    Having said that, I too wish Rubio a speedy recovery

    Dragic and Dalembert for Pekovic and Randolph.

    Agreed that was definitely all on Rubio. Very dumb move.

    That was my initial impression too. I shrugged my shoulders like why would he risk another flop in that situation when they're over the limit? But he's still learning, hopefully he doesn't end up like professional flop artist, Manu Ginobili. I didn't think the injury was that bad when it first happened, it's really unfortunate. He's an entertaining player and they were finally playing constantly well.

    I don't remember Kobe intentionally injuring someone else. I don't see how Kobe publicly apologizing would mean class.

    I haven't seen the video, but if what everyone is saying is true, then Rubio did it to himself. Kobe doesn't have to do anything. Flopping on the other hand, that shows a lot of class.
