What's new

Well, the good news is Rubio will definitely not be back next year.

Yes, we didn’t have playoff aspirations, smfh. Sorry, he’s a nice guy but **** him. Maybe thee key reason we weren’t a 55-56 win team and making the conference finals was because of his atrocious offensive output. And if he thinks he’s gonna play the leading role on a playoff team with serious aspirations he’s ****ing delusional.
 
I think he could start in Indiana, Orlando, Phoenix, or San Antonio depending how things shake out.

Orlando and Phoenix don’t have serious aspirations.

The Spurs make zero sense considering they have Murray coming back and White. Orlando could make some sense but quite frankly, I’d rather have Augustin at the cheaper price considering he’s an infinitely more efficient offensive player.
 
Chicago and Phoenix are both good fits for Ricky if he doesn't come back here. Both of those teams need a PG who can play defense and distribute to scorers.

How is Chicago a good fit? If I’m them I stay young and learn together. Is he gonna teach them how to win or something?

They would still have all of their key young pieces. It's not like he would ruin their youth movement. Rubio is just an improvement over Dunn. And some experience wouldn't hurt.

It's more to do with Chicago having a roster full of guys that need to be fed and no one to feed them than anything else. I doubt they get a guy in the draft who helps them with that after they slipped in the lottery, and signing Rubio to a fat contract for like a 1 + 1 doesn't really change much imo in terms of their young core being able to grow and learn together while also giving the young guys a coach on the floor who isn't going to make them run suicides the next day if they stuff up, and worst case scenario Rubio doesn't help them win and they get another crack at the lottery with the top 5 picks all up for grabs this time around (I think).

I don't really get why Rubio would want to do that but I get it from Chicago's standpoint.
 
I feel like there is some stuff lost in translation. It's only a sentence from an interview with a Spanish journalist. I don't think he would throw anyone on our roster under the bus.

Eh there’s an awful lot of hidden context required to make that sound anything less than sour grapes
