    Default JJ Barea to sign 4 year deal with the T-Wolves

    Don't see any sense in this signing. Barea, Rubio, and Ridnour? None of those guys can play together either. David Kahn's point guard fetish continues...

    championship experience? perimeter scoring? i dont really understand this one either. trading away that pick to the clippers is gonna kill this team.

    Yes but only as a means, not as an end.

    He had a chance at a starting PG spot to play in Madison Square Garden to play with Amare Stoudemire, Carmelo Anthony, and Tyson Chandler in MDA's perfect basketball system for him in New York City, the greatest city in the world with a very large Puerto Rican population, to contend for a championship, with national TV exposure, endorsement opportunities, and all the other perks that come with it.

    Instead, he chooses to go to small town, cold Minneapolis to be a third string backup PG, for a team that won't be contending for a championship anytime soon in anonymity.



    Cha Ching!!!!!




    Also Houston is still beating Minny 4 to 3:

    Lowry, Flynn, Dragic, Lin to Rubio, Ridnour, Barea

    You're not paying attention. They're not keeping Ridinour


    If you've payed attention to their camp Rick Adelman has sounded very impressed with Rubio's defense, Passing and abilty to run the offense however they're looking for pieces to trade for K-Mart and Ridinour is most likely one of them so it'll most likely be Rubio and Ridinour as the two starting pg's

    Adelman has consistently put Rubio as the pg with love on the floor and put Ridinour as a backup.

    Adelman on @rickyrubio9's 1st @nba practice: "I think he did really well. He can really pass the ball. I think the way he handles the ball."
    Rick Adelman's interviews where he speaks on Rubio
    http://www.nba.com/timberwolves/news...011_12_11.html

    ^ Day 3

    http://www.nba.com/timberwolves/news...011_12_10.html

    ^ Day 2

    From the look of it he'll probally be starting from day 1.

    The only consistant between every unit Adelman has run so far has been Love and Rubio.

    In Fact Derrick Williams was the one who apparently was strugggling early on because he had to learn how to play two differnt spots

    They're main goal right now is most likely trading Ridinour/Pek/Johnson for K-Mart/Decent bench player
