Why not start as early as possible with the NBA training and development program as soon as possible? Clearly he needs the NBA strength training immediately,because he looks about as strong as a girl's high school soccer player. I understand the desire to go to a "big-market" franchise, but it's a sad day when a player has so much leverage over his own future. Oh well, at least the rookie contract situation isn't nearly as ridiculous as the NFL's. (because obviously an unproven player should be able to negotiate for a $50 million dollar contract) I hope we get to see Rubio in a Wolvles jersey next year!

That is the standard for reporting. Certain writers have bad reps because they don't live up to these standards. Walters is one of them. Like I said I don't know enough about the Spanish standards for sources.. which is why I said it is something to think about. Not trying to say it's 100% false, but you have to wonder since it is the only newspaper claiming to know that Rubio is staying on DKV. “If you don’t have a credible source, you don’t have a story.” That is the standard for reporting.
