Ricky, we hardly knew ye

I was getting along fine and not missing the NBA too much during its lockout, until I saw this video of new Timberwolf Ricky Rubio at last night’s Drew Gooden Make-A-Wish Charity Game at the Cow Palace in San Francisco.

Rubio reminded Minnesota fans what they might be missing, if they missed the NBA.

Rubio is probably heading back to Spain to play as it appears more likely the NBA will close up shop for (at least) a season.
