Because I appreciate this year so much...

…last year after 26 games we were 6-20.
The year before we were 4-22 and had suffered a 15 game losing streak.

This is better.

in all seriousness..

I like how..

1) he keeps his dribble
2) he attacks the basket
3) he plays with tremendous effort
4) he knows his limitations

but with that said.. to even put Jeremy Lin in the same sentence as Ricky Rubio

is as bad as comparing Darko to Chris Weber. Today Rich Bucher tweeted that Ricky Rubio is better than Jeremy Lin. NO SHIT IDIOT.

as well as the Asian folks. Now that Yao’s retired & since Jianlian is a bust, somebody gotta step up.

I HATE when I can’t watch a game on broadband because the game is televised on the NBA channel. It is incredibly frustrating because it means you have to have cable as well, and you have to be home to watch the game.

I just hope we can make open shots.. that's the biggest X factor for us..

if we hit open shots we win, if we don’t we generally lose.. it’s that simple..

1) make open shots
2) protect the ball
3) play average to above-average defense

He provides shooting and ball handling

Ridnour could give us that (worse shooting) but has the same problems on D. I’d be ok with some Ellington but really we don’t have any good options there

Of making the when he is wide open rather than dribbling around and waiting for someone to guard him then shoot

alright.. my Rubio nightmare is now manifesting..

I have been saying for some time teams would figure him out and just play the passing lanes. This is the reason I felt he had to take more shots because he needs to keep the defense honest. You saw it in the Memphis game and now today.. teams are neutralizing him by simply playing the passing lanes.

by bsg007 on Feb 10, 2012 7:30 PM CST reply actions

he just needs to play half court offense, and settle down. Needs to be more patient

What you can’t do is try to make Ricky a SG or play off the ball, it will not work.

Unicorns do exists, on wolves skin.

by ABSF on Feb 10, 2012 7:32 PM CST up reply actions  

I don't think it's solely that

The Wolves are shooting 28.4% right now. All other Wolves except Pek account for exactly one made basket. This is not about teams figuring out how to play Rubio’s passing lanes. This is about the Wolves shooting like Wes Johnson, collectively, as a team. If we were shooting .400 this would be a completely different game, and one might even argue that the Mavs are risking being exposed because they’re all looking around constantly on defense, and a pass moves faster than a head trying to find the ball.

by Dr. Wolfenstein on Feb 10, 2012 7:33 PM CST up reply actions  

Look how many missed shots

the Wolves have had the last two games.

I get what you’re saying, but I think this isn’t on Rubio. Ya, maybe teams are playing his lanes more. But then again when the other four guys are ice cold teams are willing to gamble a bit more. If you know Love is feeling it, or Barea, then lanes open up a little because you have to account for those guys.

by Dr. Wolfenstein on Feb 10, 2012 7:36 PM CST up reply actions  

What you're saying is right...

But it doesn’t mean Ricky’s been OK these last 2. Lots of TO’s and deflected passes.

True fact

On South Korean Army posts they don’t want you to flush toilet paper, instead they prefer you put the used toilet paper in a green bin sitting on the floor. Reason being, they empty the septic tank and use it to fertilize their rice paddies – and they don’t want toilet paper all over the fields apparently.

Have a septic tank at the cabin

that doesn’t have a drainfield due to hydrology of the clay/rock soil, so we do something similar. No TP in the toilet, when it’s yellow, let it mellow, when it’s brown flush it down. If the Koreans are bright enough to recycle waste, good for them!!

This is not just South Korean Army posts.

When I was in China all the dorms had this rule. And lots of places in Malaysia and the Philippines do this. Pretty common in asian countries as a rule.
But they don’t do it for fertilizer. When I have seen it it was just because the pipes couldn’t handle very much and they would get backed up super easy. A lot of American students come in and just flush that stuff and get sewage all over their floors.

by wolver on Feb 11, 2012 12:04 AM CST up reply actions  

That is interesting, their plumbing can't handle a punch

The South Koreans did this specifically for fertilization purposes.

Learning about other cultures is very interesting, sometimes confusing and sometimes chaotic. Once, we came upon a “farm” that had a bunch of dogs running around in a small fenced in area. The locals explained to us that these dogs were basically being used as cattle and would soon be slaughtered for meat. I kinda went berserk (I love dogs and have a soft spot for them), was eventually restrained and thrown into our 15 passenger van. Not my finest hour but this illustrates how cultures can be so different.

Ugh

Not many good things to say about this one. We kept fighting back long past last year’s team would have packed it in.

But when you have 7 guys with at least 3 TOs, you can expect to win.

Would like to see more Wayne. Seems to me he’s at least as deserving of minutes as Ridnour, Webster and Barea.

more deserving IMO

Those who have hurt the team with their play should let the benchwarmers (Wayne, AR ) gets some PT

I've got good judgement from experience and experience from bad judgement.

The NY game

should provide some interesting match-ups, most notably Ricky and Lin. I’m eager to see whether or not (no, make that how much) Rubio’s defense bothers Lin’s ball handling. Jeremy has a clear advantage (so far at least) with a very effective outside shot, but if Ricky can disrupt penetration, it will help the cause a lot. Chandler v Love/Pek inside will also be important. Foul him out and NY’s whole defensive scheme changes. Hate to say it but I didn’t think we’d win this Dallas game, they were hot and Dirk was due. Feel a lot better about NY. Back to .500!

Some day, Ricky will be blessed with teammates

That make open jumpers and it will be glorious.
