Google translation, hope it is somehow understandable.

Ricky Rubio: "I used to play with limits in my mind"

Ricky talks about the process that took him to sign his best NBA season.

"Now I play thinking that I can be the best, I still respect you but I can be better you"

 

[Engorged On Unborn Gore]

Some of his games were truly transcendent this past year. December not withstanding.

Having a parent pass away sorta brings the fire out in people, changes perspectives, i think it did him

At times he was damn good, hope he continues to get better from here out.

theres many athletes in the NBA like this.... I used to say in the draftee's thread that I believed in Dennis Schroder's story in part because of this...

Cormega probably said it best on one of the most legendary rap albums ever, The Realness;

I got friends who died before they got to see me shine
How dare you compare your weak CD to mine
Or think you could see me with rhymes
Easily I'm, nicer than you and all your peoples combined

I've certainly adopted that mentality to a degree since my pops passed.

How much room does he have to improve? I will say this, when you have the intensity of Quin, Donovan and Rudy, there's no lack of motivation.

There's always room for improvement, if you can't find it, it's because you're not looking hard enough!

Was just last szn Lou Williams set the record for oldest player to avg 20ppg in a season for the first time. Shooting is classiCALLY the skill thats easiest to improve as you age in the NBA.

Ricky still has all star potential I think. After a full year with the team, he could genuinely flourish. And we know how good we are with Slick Rick.

I would say transcendent is a bit hyperbolic but he did play well in 2018 no doubt.

It was the way he played + the way he soaked up the adoration from the crowd in a couple of those games. Spaniards are so wonderfully dramatic.

Haha that is really true. Him turning to the crowd in game 3 while we were chanting his name was so much fun because he plays with it so much.
