haha. looks like Minnesota got screwed, as he isn't planning to come to NBA til at least 2011. Great work by Minnesota there.

Minnesota sports should go well, they have Favre who will screw up the Vikings, and just lost theirNBA first round draft choice.

Why the fuck did he join the draft to begin with? Please tell me it isnt because he didnt like the team who chose him? I say they dont allow him to come back. Even if he does, teams likely wont even draft his ass...too worried he will punk out.....good for minnesota anyway, Rubio was and always will be overrated.

The Wolves retain Rubio's draft rights for one year after his contractual obligation to Barcelona ends.

Might not be a totally bad deal for Minnesota. The kid is young, and many think he is not ready for teh NBA yet, but he might be in 2 years, and they have his rights for 3.
