I've watched Minnesota a few times now and have paid particular attention to Rubio. I really like his court awareness, his feel for the game and his apparent competitiveness. I wasn't sure about his foot speed until last night. The kid really does have all the tools and he does play good defense at this early juncture. He certainly is by far the best point guard on that team and I do like Ridnour a lot. I think he is one heck of a good prospect and I think he will be a very good NBA player for a long time. For those who haven't noticed this the kid is already pretty darned good. Much, much better than I envisioned and honestly much less showy. There is a lot of substance to that kids game.
