I am interested to hear TeamRicky's thoughts and those here who swore up and down that there was no way Thibs was adding another big piece to the rest of us

Sad day for me. First we lost Zach. Now Rubio.

But I can get over it pretty quick... ;-)

You don't make this move unless you're confident you have a replacement in place.

Of course they don't. I'm can't believe they got a 1st round pick. Didn't have to take back any salary. What a great move.

Finally an end to the Ricky Rubio debate. Go Wolves.

We gave up Rubio for only a first rounder that probably won't even be a lottery pick?!

Ugh, I'm not happy with that. Rodney Hood, Joe Ingles (S&T), there were definitely legitimate assets to squeeze Utah for in exchange for a player who makes a very positive contribution toward wins.

I guess Thibs is looking to spend a TON of money soon. He better do it wisely.

I was a huge Rubio skeptic when we drafted him, but came around on him over the years (basically the opposite trajectory of a lot of guys on this board). I'll really miss his hustle and passion and think they were actually a good fit on this team, although I get that his shooting was a huge liability with Wiggins.

Good luck to you Rubio, and here's hoping OKC disappoints and gets lucky in the lottery next year!
