Rubio Hurt!

I saw this posted on the NBA draft forum. Not sure how serious it is, but it looks like it could be a knee sprain...perhaps worse.

Watch him withdraw from the draft. Then we get the second pick.

it look minor. No worries.

As a wolves fan this should excite us. Like love, maybe a knee injury before we sign him means no injury after we get them?

I can't be the only one who sees this as an omen that Rubio is going to be a Timberwolf.

I can't wait for Mary Ann Gaborik to go away. He has an uvula but acts like a wenis.

I hope his contract requires him to stay in Europe for another year. I don't think it's going to happen just because his endorsements probably will cover it, but I can still dream. If we acquire him, I hope we can convince him to stay another year, maybe do an under the table deal possibly (I don't see a downside).

considering Al will not be back until January likely. and the bulk of our changes should happen deadline/2010 offseason then having RUbio learn for a year overseas and getting in position for a top-5 pick this last year could be a wise idea. Then bring over Rubio and possibly Pekovic.

I don't think under the table deals have worked out very well for the Wolves...

I just saw on another site that its believed to be a Hip problem and his listed as day-to-day. Supposedly the logo that was on center court was new and caused him to slip...

Finally, he could play tonight´s game. Was the best of his team in the victory 82-77. 16pt, 7rb, 6as 4st He helped his team and will play the last game of the series on Saturday. If Joventut lose, will be is last game in ACB league.

Return to Minnesota Timberwolves
