Rubio traded to Jazz

[MDAV28]

Rodney should be really benefited by the addition of Rubio. To put this in perspective..

Rodney was assisted most by George Hill (27 times)

Rubio assisted Wiggins 168 times.
Rubio assited Lavine 54 times.

I'm pretty damn excited about this fact. Quinn's offense is built around the wings. The better they can perform. . . the more success the Jazz will have.

Unselfish players that play d will keep you in games.

One amazing fact about him: if you try to create a nickname out of his name and surname with the first letters switching like Cyrone Torbin, you still get Ricky Rubio. No messing around with this guy.

Fact#2: The author of a Song of Ice and Fire: George R.R. Martin? That's right, it's George Ricky Rubio Martin. His father named him after Ricky.

Fact#3: http://www.espn.com/espnmag/story?id=3684031

1. Rubio was 14 when he debuted with DKV Joventud, becoming the youngest player ever to play in the Spanish ACB League.

2. The requisite highlight reel: a half-court buzzer beater, a sweet behind-the-back pass, blowing past defenders and playing a little D.

3. People are comparing Rubio to Pete Maravich. It's an overused comparison and fraught with inaccuracies, but they do have the same haircut.

4. OK, here’s another highlight mix. We couldn’t resist.

5. Rubio is from El Masnou in Catalonia. Other famous Catalans include Pau and Marc Gasol, Juan Carlos Navarro, and huge Toronto Raptors fan Salvador Dali.

6. Rubio’s a “Simpsons” fan.

7. Just in case you forgot he was still in high school (!!!), Rubio turned 18 two weeks ago, and celebrated by taking a chem test.

8. And in another reminder of how young he is, he grew up idolizing Chris Paul. Who is all of 23.

9. But for 18, he’s pretty confident.

10. Last one, we swear. This move is just sick.

Another interesting Rubio fact. He was actually a referee in Philadelphia before going pro.

Rubio is going to average double-digit assists next year. You heard it here first.

Nah, we'll still be one of the slowest pace teams in league.

Doesn't matter. I can't wait to watch him drop dimes.

1. Rubio was 14 when he debuted with DKV Joventud, becoming the youngest player ever to play in the Spanish ACB League.

And yet, in all these years, he has not learned how to make a lay-up.
