The problem with the Raptor board is that it includes ppl from all over the country who have little/no knowledge of the way the NBA works because they have almost no exposure to it and there's very little history of basketball across parts of the country.

anyways, congrads on Beas and hopefully getting rid of Al within the next 24hours. As far as Rubio goes, I thought there was talk of him not being so comfortable playing/living in Minny. I'm not saying that's a fact, just what i've heard ppl say. Is it true? If so, is it only to a certain extent that could be looked past if you make the right personel moves to satisfy him? Basicly what I want to know is, how much of that is true, and what affect will it have on him comming to the NBA.

As far as I know, the only thing he's said remotely close to that is that his mom doesn't like cold whether, but he doesn't mind it.

For clarification: El Prima Donna = Rudy, Not Ricky

Right?

yea, Ricky is a good kid. Has not done anything to earn any media hate.

Rudy has entitlement issues. I think it is from the incredibly drastic fall from deity-prospect worshiped by Blazers fans (see St. Batum) and now seeing him as a doghouse "get him out" guy.
