I don't know who usually pays these surgeries, the organization, the player or a insurance Co., but in all cases I am convinced the player has the last word about his return.
If I was a organization member I would be very worried about a early return. The team needs a healthy Rubio for the last part of the season if we don't want try to get the playoffs with only Ridnour/Barea. Nobody here wants to think about that.
IMO and I haven't any information about that, Ricky wants to play already but Kahn, Adelman and Taylor prefer for him a conservative and progressive "re-entree" ... otherwise if Rubio damages his knee again or if has a muscle or ankle injury due a lack of play, Timberwolves has wasted 2 years of his contract and Kevin Love will be UFA at 2015.
I hope a Rubio's return without a big impact, with few minutes and with a progressive growth of minutes from early February. I don't care if he plays next week, at middle of Dec, at Christmas or at January. I don't about him, I'm thinking about the team and the playoffs.
