Negotiations under way with Knicks for Rubio Deal?


According to the Spanish News Station Marca.com via Hoops Hype.com

http://hoopshype.com/rumors.htm

 

The Best-Case scenario for Rubio, and Marca.com can confirm that negotiations are underway,is a Trade with the Knicks. The Two Likely Candidates for the Trade are David Lee and Nate Robinson..While apparently the Timberwolves knew that Rubio wasn't going to play for them when they picked him.

I figured i'd just put the hoops hype link to save you guys the trouble of trying to translate spanish.

I Don't Know..If we could Resign Both Lee and Kryptonate...I Might not be against this deal...

i would be for this deal

Nate Robinson is becoming a really good player and Lee is also pretty good and as much i dont want to deal Rubio, i dont think you can pass up the opportunity to get Robinson and Lee

Ricky Rubio has become my new man crush

That's a joke, right?

Nate is a curiousity, not someone who helps you win. And why get Lee at market rates AND trade Rubio? When your 2 best players are rebounders, and that’s ALL Lee does? Um no.

even though he plays for the Knicks Nate is one of my favorite players

he is a really interesting character and a good scorer. I really hope that Rubio doesnt go to Spain, it will disappoint me :(

this deal makes little to no sense for the Wolves

They already have Lee in Love and Robinson in Flynn. On what world could Nate and Flynn possibly play together?

This deal is a joke...

And don’t trust Marca for sh!t. They report ridicululous footballing rumors that never come to pass as fact on a daily basis…

Yeah, this is garbage.

We already have better versions of Robinson and Lee. If they had a good SG or C to offer – but they don’t. Their roster is worse than ours, significantly, now that we have Rubio.

Because if there is anything the Wolves need....

…with Flynn and a roster full of power forwards, it’s Nate Robinson and David Lee.

I'm against ANY deal involving Mr. Rubio

We drafted him, we keep him. All the endless speculation about possible trades etc. overlooks the fact that, barring some kind of back-room Stern machinations, the Wolves are completely in control here. He wants to play in the NBA, and we have his rights. We’re not making the playoffs next year, so there’s no great hurry. Sooner or later he comes to us.
