    Rubio is an excellent player. I finally took the time to see him play and he was better then i thought. D Wade made a good and correct statement because thats a great way to describe him.

    None of us could argue with Dwayne Wade, Kobe Bryant and Chris Paul about basketball.

    That is very true ^^^^. Also Jason Kidd said that he thinks Rubio will be great. I can’t wait to see this kid play in the league! Also for all of the haters that say he has too many turnovers most of the turnovers he gets are because the bigs in Europe are not athletic enough to catch most of the passes rubio throws. Put him in the picknroll with Jason thompson and see how well it works out.

    If a very talented player says something about a player who has a potential to be phenomenal, it can’t be argued… Dwyane Wade’s J-Kidd’s, Kobe’s amd CP3’s statements regarding talents are like LAWS… It can be proven…

    one thing is to talk about a teammate and another completely different thing is to talk about an opponent who is not even close to signing with your team (which was the case with rubio), and it wasn’t one player who praised him, it was most of them. Chris paul said it several times, he even went to see him in barcelona.
    It’s obvious great players recognize greatness, or at the very least potential to reach greatness which is what rubio seems to have. The amazing thing is that it was something you could see in the kid when he was just 17 years old.

    that means absolutly nothing..has anyone not noticed that ever olympics the usa team and coaches say some player they played against is very good or can play in the nba..they also say the same thing when they play in the rukers and a couple have said that about and 1 players..youll never hear them say ” naw this or that player cant play”..just because you are a very good player doesnt mean youre a very good judge of talent…im sure we have all witnessed the greatest player on the planet make some bad draft choices ( kwame brown then he said adam morrison would be a star right way in the nba)..im not saying rubio isnt good im saying you cant go by what a nba superstar says about a player just because hes a star…and butidonthavemoney just because they are stars doesnt mean no one can argue with them about how good a player is..being a great player doesnt make u a great judge of talent

    they also said the kid from austrila is very good..wade said sean dockery could start in the nba..like i said it doesnt mean much..they see him just as much as the fans see him FIRST HAND…you act like they are playing in a empty gym where no one else can see what the player is doing..lol..you know how many guys who nba players have played against in the rucker and said they could play int he nba and yet those players get invited to the summer leauge and camp and dont even make first cuts…give me a break…and great players dont always recognize greatness..as a matter of fact the guys that recognize greatness are usually guys who werent that great as players or didnt even play much in the nba….whos the top 5 evaluaters of talent…and whos the greatest players in the nba?…jordan is the greatest ever correct?..he played against kwame brown and drafted him number 1 correct?…alot input of drafting morrison too correct?

    i remeber kobe,wade,and kidd saying the sarunas kid would be a allstar in the nba…same with iverson,shaq,micheal redd saying so would d wagner…..then there was ron artest and shaq saying hot sauce could play in the nba…every olympics there are nba players that are asked about a player that basketball site pump up and 100percent of the time the nba player has said good-great things about each player…but only a couple have become allstars…oh yeah ..dwade carmelo,and kobe also said the yi jing kid thats wit the nets would come in and be a problem from day one in the nba……yep he sure is burning it up huh….i dont take too much stock ino what they say about a player because the past has shown that they overhype the player more times then not

    Thank you. Yea, all the players from the US have thought players from the other countries were good. Remember Carlos Arroyo? The Sarunas guy yall mentioned above that wasnt even a prospect when he played for Maryland? Or Sun Yue, who I already mentioned? Patty Mills was a projected lotto pick before the season, Chris Paul said he was the fastest point guard he has ever played. Is his stock that high now? Naw. Sergio Rodriguez, who whether you want to believe it or not is almost EXACTLY like Rubio, whether your looking at their scouting or their games. Is he a difference maker? No. So these players guess is as good as anybodys. Ask Kobe if he think Sun Yue is a great player now, watch what he would say
