Official Rubio Support thread

Pssshhh I've been onboard the Rubio train all along.

I still like Ricky. By the end of his contract I figure we'll have a good idea of what we have with Dante.

I'm more worried about the glaring holes that Hood and Favors will likely leave upon their departures. I wonder how those get filled. I wonder if we end up snagging Mirotic, and how much his bad defence cripples us.

I have to give kudos to Quin, his work with Rubio has been remarkable. And Rubio plays with a passion and a will to succeed that is now starting to pay off.

We need to discuss his value to the Cavs. Watching him defend Curry tonight how much should we read into his H2H numbers against Curry?

And what his worth to Lebron and the Cavs?

Why do the Cavs need him when we're going to take out the dubs in the 1st round?

The whole thing that the anti-Rubio crowd failed to realize, it was never beneficial to give up on Rubio.

Love and the Brooklyn Pick for Favors and Rubio. Get it done DL

Hopefully the Jazz use Hood to replace Hood. Get a sweet shooting backup 2-guard. I still think Reggie Bullock is a really good fit if Detroit really wants Hood.

I would love to see him play at this level the rest of the season and next year. I am not sure he will and his lack of shooting will still hurt us, unless he magically learns to shoot. Maybe he does enough other stuff well enough to get away with poor shooting as well.

But this is more what I was hoping when the trade was announced.

I love Rubios effort, it is almost always great. He wants to win really bad. For his sake and ours I hope he gets a lot of wins.

Well its the one situation where Rubio may be considered an asset?
