No one cares about minutes; they care about their paychecks. Ricky wanted to go to Sacramento because it's a bigger market and if he had gone past that, he'd have been picked by similarly small markets until the Knicks at 8th, who couldn't have paid him as much. Lastly, it is a free-market just like a teacher can choose any school a player can choose any league in which to hawk their wares (NBA, Europe, NBDL, etc). It just so happens that they all want to work for the NBA, just like most IBankers want to work for JPMorgan, because it pays the most!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8807038856702524595.post-33351520460409977942009-06-21T21:40:08.603-04:002009-06-21T21:40:08.603-04:00Grizz fans, why would you want Rubio?? #1 - He was...Grizz fans, why would you want Rubio?? #1 - He was shut down vs. the USA in the Olympics (I know they are the best in the world, but I think E. Maynor or S. Curry would have scored at least 10), #2 - You are set at the guard spots. I know Thabeet is a reach, but he does not have to start. The Rookie pay for a number 2 pick is cheaper than an experienced backup. He can come off the beach for M. Gasol, play with Gasol, or push him for the chance to start. I have seen Rubio's game and I am not impressed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8807038856702524595.post-2349795112164519642009-06-21T03:17:38.522-04:002009-06-21T03:17:38.522-04:00Timmy's first gay bar!
