"Ricky Rubio Puts Career On Hold Indefinitely To Focus On Mental Health" - There seems to be a pattern developing here. Is Minnesota winter or Glen Taylor really that difficult to deal with?

It's too bad for Rubio, every time he starts to get going, something happens (ACL, trade for Conley, trade for Paul, Butler, ACL). If only he had developed a consistent 3pt shot like Jason Kidd.

Why are you blaming this on Minnesota? It's been a while since he was here.

It could easily be something at home that needs his attention too. It came out when he was playing with the Spanish national team.

Once you played as a Twolves , you are scared for life :D. Now we have Love, Rubio, and Towns with something. We could blame it on Cleveland too :D. Whatever it is, I hope he resumes his career but not going to search out in respect to his privacy.

Call me crazy but I think that Kessler Walker will have more blocks in next 5 years than Wemby and Chet.

Doesn't sound crazy at all to me.

Only thing crazy is to refer to someone by putting his last name ahead of his first name (is this actually shrink? ;) ).

Yes, after Ant finished his HOF career with Twolves, he will go play in China :D following Marbury's path.

I think this is a great hire of New York. I thought Rosas was done but time and time again we see you can get second chances, hopefully he keeps his head on straight. very talented dude.

I guess a married man banging a subordinate in his office and destroying 2 families goes over better in New York.
It makes me sad that didn't end his career, at least in big money NBA jobs.
But I guess the higher you go up the ladder, the less character matters.

Didn't they add Rick Brunson to the coaching staff too? Another creeper.
Answer: They hired him a month before his kid became a free agent.
I guess when you do a bunch of unethical stuff to get Jalen Brunson from the Mavericks and all it costs you is a 2nd round pick that merits a promotion.

Even if I hate the Gobert trade, I'd rather have a guy with apparent character in TC running the organization.
Rosas always rubbed met the wrong way, I always got a used car salesman/funeral home director vibe from him.

Ant and McDaniels were great picks and Vanderbilt was a nice throw in to the Covington trade (made essentially trading Clint Capela for Beasley a little easier to swallow).
Rest of his moves were awful especially the Russell trade. And he basically traded every player on the team but KAT and Okogie.

Interesting that he followed Thibs here and now is Thibs's boss in NY.

Pat Bev is that guy that you love when he is annoying the other team, but the rest of the time you are just praying he shuts TF up for 5 minutes before you lose your mind.

It's pretty clear by now he wore out his welcome with Finch and wasn't wanted back.

Rosas definitely duped me
