Perhaps...Minnesota took two PGs. So I'm guessing either Rubio or Flynn is going to be dealt...perhaps to NY?

Rumor is that Rubio may be going back to Spain on a contract extension with his previous team. The T-wolves will try to deal Rubio, probably for a Center (Love is better as a forward in my opinion).

It looks like Minnesota wants to keep both of them. Though Rubio will probably force a trade as they don't want him going back to Spain.

David Lee for Rubio is one of the possibilities i have heard of - at least the Knicks have shown some interest.

if the knicks traded lee away i dont know who they have anymore.

darko, the rookie, eddie curry, etc etc doesnt sound quality big man for me. probably they can offer that much money to the guy since they are aiming for 2010

I dont think that big men are that important in D'Antoni's system, Gallinari is still there not to mention Harrington...

still how can you keep up with out some one doing the dirty work.

true they arent the center of the system but still they have a role to play. no matter what one may say, normally a strong contending team has a really reliable big man whether be a star like duncan or a role player like ben wallace to the pistons then.

He still hasn't been bought out. Hopefully for him he stays in Europe, Minnesota is a disaster.

Rumor has Barcelona buying him out with a six year contract and a better escape clause, but it would be in 2011.

i dont think rubio would benefit coming to minnesota,

its a rebuilding team, i think it just doesnt need talent but maturity and being prepared.

it may not be said but once his there i think he would be ask much just playing. and i dont think their lone pf star can guide that a big group alone
