    Is this thread about "international icon" Ricky Rubio?

    You did mean "their", right, in calling him out? I'm assuming so, or I'm reading this incorrectly.

    6-5 without Love, 7-8 with Love. Neither was going to win 50 games.

    Jesus christ. You see the all caps right? That wasn't painfully clear that it was intentional?

    He might do better as Ricky Rubio, Backyard Wrestler.

    Totally agree. I never said they would win 50. Minne, perhaps, has a deeper roster than Portland, but I feel like Portland's core players have more talent/potential.

    But I think it's a bit cray cray to say Minne is better without Love. If Love isn't giving it his best effort in hopes of being moved, then you can make the argument that Minne is better without him. But generally-speaking, they are better with Love than without.

    You did see I said, "I'm assuming so," right? Was that not painfully clear? I was trying to say I catch your humor, but the way you wrote it, "THEY'RE" should have been "their".

    It's just if you go back and read your post, even with the caps, I wasn't sure if you were telling him he should have used "they're" and intentionally not using "their".

    Now, between the two posts, you've used "there", "their", and "they're". Congrats.

    It's true. You see how many times people call someone dum (yes, that's intentional), and then fuck up their response post (like the guy Nik was calling out did)?

    I never know with any of you humorless fukks.

    an invasion? lol

    that would be like the invasion of normandy, but instead of invading germany controlled france, they threw one grenade and then got shot in the face

    i would say it was more of a kamikaze attack

    I believe you can pm an admin (Denny or Ed o) and ask for a name change

    well, when you say "post like this", do you mean as you are currently (and not with the intention to being a troll), or do you mean like this in a "I chose this name because I think it'll annoy fans"?

    It just seems that if you wanted to post here, you wouldn't need to come up with a cheeseball name as a way to get a point across.

    So, now Rubio is down in the back?

    Maybe Ricky's trying to make Kahn trade him and Love to someplace nicer to live. Maybe Sacramento could help them out.

    I wonder if the Kings would do a Rubio/Love for Brooks/Hayes/Salmons?

    No way Kings would do that deal.
