Official Rubio Support thread

Rubio didn't play in the second half, but Snyder said he was the key for Utah to start the game.

"I thought he stabilized us at the beginning of the game," Snyder said. "I think his presence on the court was really important. His leadership is one of the reasons we're where we are."

I used to think that Rudy was the most focused, on point player that I've seen these last few seasons on the team, then I met Ricky and I'm speechless. The guy gives 100% on every play and every minute he's in. He's been a joy to watch.
 
Rubio is our future pg nuff said. Exum is our back up.

Jazz have flexibility. If Utah were to sign a stud SG, you could have DM play PG.

But let's make sure both can be signed before anointing one the starter and the other a backup. I'm pretty confident Jazz will re-sign Exum or match a contract. But eventually something has to give. You can't pay everyone.
 
When trying to predict his future, many people expect Rubio to be gone "because Exum is the future". I'm surprised by that. Let's see: QS wanted Rubio, to the point the organization gave up a 1st rounder to get him. He immediately became the starter. He struggled at first and QS showed patience. When things clicked and we got healthy, we went on a 27-5 run with 3 games to go. Rubio is giving 100% every game on both sides of the court, is proving to be a great character, is shooting 41% from 3 in 2018, and a long etc.

Call me crazy, but there is NO WAY Quin Snyder wants to see Rubio gone when his contract is up.

If Rubio was Snyder's guy, then yeah, I can see that easily. DL and Quin pretty much are in sync about what the team needs to go. If Quin said "Ru. Bi. OOOOO" then DL probably responded with a thumbs up and a "Bangarang!" This feels different that Rubio's usual post All-Star heat-up. He's literally turned into a Curry clone of sorts.

Look at how bad *** Rudy is in that gif. Don’t **** with the Rudy.
 
Sam Mitchell on Ricky Rubio and the Jazz

Great interview. Thanks for posting it. This makes me love this team even more. Watch out league the J-train is arriving!

I really liked his comments on how the team is put together. FO deserve a shout-out, so does QS for making it work. Sticking patiently with RR and building his confidence up is going to pay huge dividends.

Does anyone know much about Rubio's personal life? There is a wedding website for Ricky and Veronica Beaulieu, and the wedding is scheduled for May 12 (33 days from now).

Is this true? Why would an NBA player schedule his wedding during the playoffs? I get that he hasn't had to worry about it before, and for half of this season didn't appear he would need to worry about it, but still . . .

Edit: hmm, probably not real. The "meet" story involves being at a Timberwolves game on May 12, 2016. I shouldn't believe everything I read.

It's a creepy stalker fan website. NBA fan fiction.

Look at the embrace, simply golden! We are blessed to have them both.
