He’s yours. Enjoy the YouTube feeds as he heads back to Spain for another year.

Demands from the team that made the Kwame Brown deal. It is to laugh.

First read enough of our blog to understand the difference between a fanpost and a fan shot. Second, just because you are the laughingstock of the NBA for trading Pau for nothing, don’t blame the rest of the world for your previous bad trades or assume some other GM is as stupid. Finally, don’t blame Sac for the fact that you’ve pissed off your other Sapnish players so much that Rubio doesn’t want you.

Stop waiting for the phone to ring and read this:

They can try, but they might be wasting their pick. And with other players that will play, and Mike Conley coming off a good year, I don’t see why they pick Rubio, especially if he doesn’t want to go to Memphis.

Grizzlies

And linking to your blog to make your point, like you have some kind of actual information instead of just a wishful thinking rant, is pathetic.

Rubio may not even go meet with people from Memphis or OKC.

Hes giving us a work out.

Draft him and watch as he goes back to Spain. That would be hilarious.

Not signing any big free agents (ever), giving pau away when chicago would have traded half of thier team, and they traded for Marco Jaric.

Fegan tried this with Yi Jianlian for all the same reasons. Didn’t work. Milwaukee drafted him anyway and he ended up playing there.

Not saying this means Memphis or OKC are going to draft him, but if they really want him I don’t think all this drama is going to be what holds it up.

Ricky can pay his 4.75M€ clause and spend some time playing in Spain getting more money than with the rookie scale.

I’m sure some top european teams have already made offers. He can play for a year for a powerhouse like Real Madrid (I hope he doesn’t) for something like 3-4M€ after taxes, and that’s almost three times what he would make in a season in the NBA.

He has the power, he’s the one who chooses, he’s going to be a King.

Rubio’s return to Spain is planned for next Sunday, June 23, when a meeting will be held on the conciliation between the player and DKV Joventut to try to reach an agreement on the termination clause.

Also i found this interesting .

The Oklahoma City Thunder, the team that third-elect after the Clippers and Grizzlies in the ‘draft’ in the NBA, are keen to gain the services of Ricky Rubio. In fact, senior executives of the franchise have contacted GP Abogados, a law firm established in Barcelona, to analyze carefully the potential legal maneuvering with the termination clause of the player (4.75 million euros), if the choose him on the 25th.

Or have such a deal in place, however you want to arrange it. Passing up Rubio to take a player who doesn’t fit any better in your system (either you have to move Mayo to PG to take Harden, or do something weird with Thabeet and Gasol on PF, etc.) and let him fall to a team that needs him is not smart.

Then they can see Rubio’s flight flying over Tennessee on its way back to Barcelona.

IF Wallace decides he want to do this, and Petrie decides that Rubio is the guy, then Wallace should expect something along the lines of Rubio and Jaric for the #4 and K9(woof!). So he gets his player out of the deal (Thabeet OR Evans OR Harden), shortens that stupid Jaric contract by 2 or 3 years, and overall saves about 10-11 mil at the end of the season.

Petrie shouldn’t even make an offer IMO, let Wallace screw himself over, wait a few months until the asking price is a little cheaper, and then see whats happening.

Keep in mind, Chris Wallace is one of the WORST NBA GMs currently employed. How a guy who messed up a Celtics team that should’ve had Chauncey Billups, Paul Pierce, and Joe Johnson is just beyond me.
