Formality. The deals aren't official yet but they are.
Rosas definitely wants upside. He better have infrastructure there to develop these kids.

There is no comparison. Ricky's defense is so much better than DLO. DLO has been benched by multiple coaches for his poor defense.
Yeah 5 years ago you're right.
5 years ago i was right, 4 years ago I was right, 3 years ago i was right, 2 years ago I was right, last year I was right and now, I'm right. DLO is atrocious on defense.
So is Rubio. So slow. He's always looked great statistically relative to his shitty units.
Now you are being irrational. There isn't a single NBA coach, player, or front office person who would agree that Ricky is a poor defender....and certainly not as bad as DLO. Get a grip.
The one good defensive team he was on wanted him out. Every other unit he has been on has stunk. Great defenders elevate the team, Rubio has never been capable of that by any means and now he's older and even slower. I know his stans will never blame him for how bad his old wolves units used to be or how bad our d will be next year. He's always been seen in the rose by those who love him.
So the only way someone is a good defender in your book is if they drag the entire four guys with him? I guess that makes Okogie and Culver poor defenders as well then. It's odd that you hold him to a standard that is literally unattainable for all but a few players in this league.
Rubio has been a key component of some of the worst defenses in the league on the wolves. It would have been nice for him to move us at least out of the basement. Im asking for a noticable impact, like get us to 20 if youre the only good defender.
Again, no one other than a guy like Gobert or elite wing defender is going to single-handedly drag a defense out of the bottom ten if he is the only good defender. And even that is tough to do these days since there is so much switching and 3-point shooting. And if Rubio is such a shitty defender, how the hell did Phoenix go from 29th to 17th after his arrival? By your logic, he should have kept them in the cellar.
Kelly Oubre.
I guess we will have a lot of time to debate how much rubio sucks. I cant believe this organization is taking me back there. Only in Minnesota.
LOL, Kelly Oubre. Nice try.
Doper, your hate runs deep. I can respect the contractual/positional objections with getting Rubio. I can't respect a take that is simply not based in fact or data....unless one is joking. And you are the scientist around here if I'm not mistaken!

Bridges improved too, probably shouldnt have ignored his contributions. I guess Ill have to live without your respect over Ricky Rubio.
