Ricky Rubio has his lovers, and Ricky Rubio has his haters – there isn’t much in-between.
However, I am the exception. I love Rubio. He’s my favorite player in the NBA because of his dazzling passing ability. How he sets up his teammates and finds creases to thread the ball into just amazes me. But, at the same time, I understand that Ricky cannot shoot the ball with consistency, and the NBA is a point guard’s league.
If you have an elite point guard on your team, you have a chance to win every night and the Timberwolves are not to that level yet.
