Ricky Rubio Wasn't Thrilled About Trade To Cavaliers
Ricky Rubio has had a positive impact for the Cleveland Cavaliers during the early part of his tenure with the team. Rubio is one of Cleveland's key veterans on a roster filled with young players.
"Without getting too far out over my skis and getting aggregated too much, Ricky Rubio, from what I understand, was not thrilled about being traded to Cleveland," said Brian Windhorst on his podcast.
"And at this point in his career, I don't really blame him."
"It was also like the 14th time he was traded in the last two years," interjected Tim MacMahon.
"He signed thinking he was going to be playing alongside Devin Booker in Phoenix and next thing he knows he is in Cleveland. Okay, so it took some convincing to get Rubio sold on that this was the best place for him. Whatever they did, they got Rubio focused and he is providing very level-headed competent ball handling and execution, which considering the last couple of years, they've played with very young and sometimes very wild guards. Putting Rubio out there makes a difference."
