Ricky Rubio Shakes, Bakes, and Dishes

[FookinLiam]

great and quickly shot as well

[rebelforever24]

Good D from joe johnson. He just got screened

[BossKnowell]

Rookie of the Year

[ElDiabloWhoppo]

Ricky makes the game fun to watch, like Steve Nash without the shooting ability, but with much better defense

[Aerochalklate]

hell get most assist's in the nba

[654ha123]

damn he was COOKING...

[nasnasnas91]

i love how everyone thought rubio was going to be "eaten alive by NBA point guards."

This just shows that the majority of nba fans are complete retards and only care about freak athletes and dunks and shit. A true basketball player Rubio is.

[4800alberto]

That is dedicated to the Spanish people (I'm Spanish) who criticized him last year! Ricky is great and he has been always great!

[olg06]

Shakes, Bakes, and Dishes a Hot plate of mmm Chicken

[TannerJudge]

Not to mention his passing...which hasn't been as flashy as everyone made it seem like when he was in europe. The guy plays the offensive side like a checkers board. He doesn't drive to score, but he drives and penetrates in order to make guys on the other team move and rotate to his penetration so he can kick it out to the open guy. It's literally a beauty to watch. Not to mention refreshing with all of the ball hogging NBAers of todays NBA. Only thing he has to work on is turnovers...

[TannerJudge]

Rubio is actually a really good defender. All of the "NBA experts" are raving at his defense and say how that is actually the thing they are most impressed about him. Timberwolves are allowing like 15 less points a game with him on the floor compared to when he is not. Plus, look in his last 4 games or so he's averaging like 4 steals a game.Dude has crazy long arms and is really active and hard working on the defensive end.He's in all of the passing lanes and is great at catching guys napping

[kanagawa85]

i still dont understand why twolves draft johnny flynn and signing barea during the free agency if they draft rubio to be their franchise player

[ronaddict]

Ricky Rubio is the hybrid of Jason Kidd and Steve Nash

[Kebsky23]

Overall, Rubio is seasoned player, that makes him so special. His basketball IQ's way ahead of his class. He's been pro since he was 14. He knows when to score and when to pass. He's not that athletic and physically strong or a great shooter, but experience takes that advantage. Turnovers will be his best challenge because he loves to pass and he's up againts more bigger, athletic & quicker PG. Just like JKidd, it doesnt needs to be athletic and a scorer to be a great PG in this league.

[enriqueromerobasarra]

luck is the time when opportunity and preparation meet,Rubio

[matzpower]

Ricky Rubio is the reason why i watch NBA.

Last year the most exciting player was Blake Griffin,this year Ricky Rubio.

[KnightmareZ011]

@matzpower his game is amazing and fun to watch, he is one of the less athletic point guards in the nba, he can't run can't jump, but he's smart and nifty, very fun

[ArabNamedJordan]

@matzpower next year, Jeremy Lin.!

The Linvasion of Linsanity HAS BEGUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[HectoxMan]

rondo is better anyway

[Gabbesp1995]

@HectoxMan well yeah, but he has played like 6 years in the NBA and is 5 years older

[Love42Beasley8Rubio9]

@HectoxMan for now.

[pau6alfafarS80]

stop comparing him with legends and just enjoy seeing him play... he's great!! Ricky for the All-Star!!!!!!

[24kobeize]

next steve nash or magic johnson

[SpecialWire]

He's gonna be better than Rondo soon.

[TH13beast]

you think this kid is good look up Nikola Mirotic... he won the best player in spain award just like Rubio and hes comin to Chicago! just search "Nikola Mirotic highlights"

[Love42Beasley8Rubio9]

@TH13beast trade him to Lakers

[MultiBastardos]

THIS KID BORN TO PLAY IN THE NBA NOT IN SPAIN..THIS LEAGUE IS THE BEST FOR YOUR BUSINESS..CHECK IT OUT

[psndcez]

They see me rollin'...

[DefieOPartyBoy]

Damn, thats was just nice pass

[entr1xx]

Oh gosh i luv wathcing him play

[NBALJFan23]

I knew he was gonna be a good player in the league, his court vision and passing ability is in the elite class. He can finally throw alley-oops and no look passes knowing that the player he's passing to can finish it. What surprised me so far though is his shooting. He can't shoot back in Europe and somehow he can drain 3's now lol.

[Zaid777]

That was disgusting. Just a disgusting pass.

[SquishyCandyftw]

You know, a lot of people didn't give this kid a chance because they saw his stats in Europe and they were AWFUL.

But MAN he is tearing it up in the NBA.

This kid has a bright future.

I also love that he isn't basically a shooting guard at the PG, that seems to be the new trend nowadays. He's averaging 10+ assists off the freakin' bench, unbelievable. Kevin Love I think is overrated, not Rubio. He's the only rebounder, of course he gets the most rebs and why the hell does he shoot 3's?

[varishnakov]

@SquishyCandyftw Love is overrated? He is getting stats that rival the best players to ever play the game in history.

[agl704]

@varishnakov then how is he overrated if he getting stats like that, and im not even a wolfs fan but damn stop hating,, he still young and only getting better, tell me who's putting up stats like him this season playing his postion, exactly stfu..

[varishnakov]

@agl704 Um. I don't know why you are saying that to me. My comment was about his NOT being overrated and was in reply to someone saying he was..

[agl704]

@varishnakov my bad,, i took it like that cuz i read, love is overated..

[Weisswoscht]

Not he is overrated, Westbrook is overrated!!!

[gwmkwan]

future John Stockton

[777kamasutra]

its not the passer it is in the shooter..

[Treewithouth]

We meet again 301st viewer.

[AJEdaAssassin31491]

I respect true point guards like rondo, nash, paul, d will and now rubio.

[taylortype]

Look Bron No Look pass

[DMAN3213]

i respect rubio but kevin love is just waay underratted and he needs equal attention as rubio

[1000gohead]

I wish I had Minnesota sports channel, been up on Rubio since the Olympics.

[CherrieTree817]

I can tell Rubio is already gonna get a lot of haters...

[Mrvoodoochild1]

I honestly don't know why people compare Rubio to Kidd, their games are nothing alike. Kidd was an elite defender and rebounder for his entire career. Rubio can't guard his shadow. He is more similar to Nash.

[blackmadina99]

@Mrvoodoochild1

For someone who can't defend. He sure picks a lot of opposing PG's pockets. He had 5 steals in this game. He is a better defender than nash is. Compare him to rondo.

[esTebanLRD]

@Mrvoodoochild1 rubio is a great rebounder and stealer, retard.

[ThePACKRBACK]

TItle should be "Ricky Rubio shakes, bakes, and serves the Hawks for dinner. That was some fineeee cooking!

[Tamang4CA]

damn! he shakes it than bakes than cleans the dish. He should be a cook.

[IightDragon]

rubio isn't as overrated as griffin..... but with all this publicity hes getting there! nba should show like a clip once a night and not like every assist

[rolandroiroi]

i dont watched enough of rubios plays yet. As i search for timberwolves game recaps, i wish my question here is answered as well. Does rubio have HIGH potential of learning dribbling skills that can cross defenders? plzz answer

[LJ23King]

Rubio is good, but Irving will win ROY.,...

[MVPDurant35]

Ricky Rubibo is the next steve nash.!

[RenzGonzaga33]

ricky rubio a future jason kidd? nahh. more like steve nash

[LJ23King]

@RenzGonzaga33 steve nash is a dead eye shooter. Rubio has ways to go before he can be half as good a shooter as nash

[uljt]

LOL

[mcmuffinjoyce]

Josh Smith didn't know where to look :P

[MuthaFockingBoss]

Isnt this a womans job?

[xXChiTownzFinestXx]

damn dude a lot of people thought this guy was not going to be good or his game wouldnt be that good in the nba.......well he is sure proving them wrong

[blade1037]

He is my idol xD

[chubbyjenks]

18 points 12 assists, 5 steals. Haters gonna hate!!!!

[kage7785]

NBA just don't turn him into the next blake griffin, overexposed and over hyped etc. Let the kid grow just like blake deserves to, people will start hating just because of exposure (dumb i know).

[pr0d1gy90]

@kage7785 you couldn't have said it any better

[GuyanezeComedy]

@kage7785 Not dumb at all

[Underpantsniper]

rubi... oooooo

[ITzJaYOhh]

Professional basketball players(like LeBron) and former basketball greats ALL acknowledge Rubio's amazing skill.

And you find yourself sitting at you computer at home thinking he's overrated.......

Who the fuck are you???

[datlibra17]

@ITzJaYOhh a person with an opinion...

[ITzJaYOhh]

@datlibra17 An opinion based on what?........nothing

He has been averaging 10 pts and 8 ast off the bench for the season(8th in the league in ast). Now that he's starting I can almost guarantee that he will be top 5 in ast by the end of the season.

[sxchighflyer]

@ITzJaYOhh I am Dwyane Wade..Who the fuck are you???

[sergi0ram0s23]

@ITzJaYOhh if you live in Europe, you know hes a bit overrated. He has just some good dribbling skills, and a great pass. He is not a good defender, nor a good "gunner", i mean hes long shot makes me laugh, but his fancy style can hide his weaknesses.

[ITzJaYOhh]

@sergi0ram0s23 he's shooting 42% from three so far this season.....which is pretty good

As for defense, I don't recall ever hearing anyone call him a great defender....as a matter of a fact that was one of his weaknesses discussed when he was drafted a couple years ago but he has still managed to average about 2 steals per game anyway

[SmOkiNBuLLeTsZ]

@ITzJaYOhh A-fucking men.

[Convisis]

Josh Smith shoulda stayed with Love as he pops back off the post up, no need to double Ricky because he will just draw the defenders and then pick you apart.

[Pmike2345]

is it me or is ricky rubio overrated?

[warnock881]

@Pmike2345

He makes plays happen and he does it with style, so nah I wouldn't say he is overrated.

[Veyronp87]

i like him because he has opposed the trend of "new generation" point guards being extremely athletic and a little selfish. he is the textbook definition of a point guard. maybe a future jason kidd

[TheRaptorRapture]

@Veyronp87 Jason Kidd comparison is right on the money hes an amazing PG.

[dwyane3wademh]

@Veyronp87 Not a future Jason Kidd slow down .

[onishchuk4]

@Veyronp87 or steve nash

[Urangatang711]

@Veyronp87 and the biggest knock everyone has on him is his shooting. They used to call jason kidd "ason" cause he had no j!

[MisterAaronBurnham]

@Veyronp87 or steve nash

[Westsalvation0052]

@Veyronp87 I am a huge Rubio fan but, I would take any of those "new generation point guards" (Rose, Paul, Westbrook, Rondo, Williams, and Lowry) over him right any day.

[tonyli9323]

@Veyronp87 more like a future steve nash

[Royy164]

@Veyronp87 Yeah! Totally agreed, he remembers me of Jason Kidd and Jason "White chocolate" Williams :D

PS: I miss him so much since he left Barcelona and joined the NBA. I can't watch him playing anymore from Spain T_T

[ReMixFlash]

@Veyronp87 The closest person in the league to a J-Kidd playstyle is Kyle Lowry this season. He is leading all PGs in rebounding, he can play good D, is a good scorer, and he likes to set his teammates up before anything. Rubio has courtvision like as good as Nash and Kidd but other then that he cant do a whole lot for a team although he has a high enough bball iq to get a shot for himself.

[niceguyFTW]

@ReMixFlash Stat doesnt say it all. Lowry has great teamate. most of his pass were just simple pass and sometimes the pass wasnt even a good pass but his teamate still finish it. And most of the time he had no pressure on him like down by a lot, team had no momenum, or running out of time you know stuff like that.

[MisterDeaglEye]

@Veyronp87 Maybe... I think he is going to create his own way he is not gonna be like anyone he is going to be like Rubio and be an amazing PG in everyway

[mikepitgate7]

@Veyronp87

future steve nash..if he improves his shooting ability

[esTebanLRD]

@mikepitgate7 NO, he have defense and rebounds, he is like Kidd, he can made tripple double every times.

[cynskeptical]

@mikepitgate7 Rubio so far is shooting .455 3-pointers to make 10, Nash .353 for 13.

@Veyronp87 6th in steels so far...

[Calebjv12]

@Veyronp87 He's NO Jason Kidd, Kidd could do everything. Ricky Rubio is only good for one side of the floor.

[Veyronp87]

@Calebjv12

agreed, he isnt right now, but he has a bright future ahead of him

[Rebound321]

@Calebjv12 lol, it's not like Rubio is a bad defender, some people like to judge him as being a bad defender because he's european, not saying your doing so

[Th3Aw3someGam3r]

He baked... and didn't share it with the TEAM!! -_-

[Rebound321]

Rubio over Rose all day

[sehvendeuce]

@Rebound321 Relax....

[yarnailuj]

I THINK WE GOTTA WINNA!! ...........is it too early to get a RUBIO Jersey?!?

[obiwashere]

he's fearless. Most other players would have just thrown it up and hoped it went in.

[lukamotiv]

Not only do Barcelona produce fine football players but also Basketballers as well..

[fejic]

he has great moves. i could watch him all day

[Phatinium]

That court vision is extraordinary! 

[Strummify]

mah goodness

[StealthPilot1000]

[143SamRad]
