Ricky Rubio - Take the Money and Limp

The Cavs also believe LeVert can benefit greatly from Ricky Rubio’s eventual return. - Fedor

Fedor says January in his column today.

"Koby Altman called me and said they had the option to go for Donovan Mitchell. I told him that if he arrived, we would advance three or four years in team projection." - Rubio

Three or four years. Wow.

I think everyone needs to chill on the Rubio expectations. He played out his mind last year after coming off his great national team run. He doesn’t have that momentum this year. It’s gonna take a few months to get back into his regular self let alone post national team self.

Starting to think he might be playing before Christmas

Spanish Jesus being (re)born on Christmas Day sounds good to me...

Man I love Rubio! Crying on the steps. Heartbreaking!

He died for everyone’s bricks, including 0k0r0 and Sexton.

I already got my tickets when the Cavs come to Portland January 12th. Hoping Ricky is back by then but, bringing him back on the West coast road trip might be the right move so he doesn't feel too much adrenaline at home and the fans.

I need somebody to Photoshop Diakite and Luke Travers into this mofo.

Luke is Aussie Jesus...might be too competitive with Spanish Jesus...

His presence will be a boost. But you’re 100% correct; resigning him was a move for NEXT year, anything they get from him in terms of production this year is icing.
The question also has to be asked is can he even fully recover with the second tear and his age.

When Ricky gets back he needs to be treated like a vintage Ferrari. No need to beat the crap out of him. No driving over potholes or taking him over redline too many times.

This is depressing

Excited to get Rubio back. This was a great read, but this little section had me dying laughing.

The question you ask me is how Donovan would fit in as a person, in the locker room.

At first in the training camp with Cleveland, the sensations were very good. I had never been in a team with such enthusiasm.
