    Several spanish sites are saying that Ricky Rubio is already signed by Barcelona. Here is a link to the Marca newspaper. I will try to find an english source as well.

    I'd trade his rights if I'm Minny. Johnny Flynn is a capable starting PG for them and Rubio's stock is still high. If Rambis decides to run the Triangle offense in Minny Rubio isn't going to be vital to their success. I think they could get some nice pieces back for Rubio and possibly a future 1st rounder. The Warriors would be an ideal trade partner.

    Brandon Wright & Future 1st Rounder for the rights to Rubio?

    It didn't happen. It's false, just like every other damn Spanish report.


    Fucking Spain...

    Exactly . . . Minny has a chance to salvage this pick by trading him. Many teams are shopping for PGs . . . the Knicks, Clippers and Heat might be willing to give up a lot to get Rubio . . . those are big market teams that could finacially give Rubio what he needs . . . endorsements and a reason to leave Europe to play in the NBA.

    It may make sense, but Kahn has a bigger hard-on for him than even I do. It isn't going to happen unless we get an offer that we absolutely cannot refuse.
