http://www.startribune.com/sports/wolves/118055959.html (節錄部分) In a radio interview, Rubio said his dream still is to follow countryman Pau Gasol's path to the NBA, but said he might wait another season, particularly if NBA owners lock out players this summer. Rubio said a lockout would be an "important" factor in making his decision, although Rubio could choose to sign with the Wolves this spring before the league's current collective bargaining agreement expires rather than risk terms of a new deal that could be significantly less lucrative if owners get their way. --- The Wolves sent three representatives to Europe to visit Rubio and his family in February and Kahn plans a May trip to Barcelona. Wolves forward Kevin Love also has struck up a relationship with Rubio, whom he met in August when his USA World Championship team played Rubio and the Spanish national team in an exhibition game in Madrid. "I still text him every now and then," Love said after the Wolves practiced at a San Francisco health club. "Not too often, once or twice a month. I've always said I hope he comes over sooner rather than later so we can get this thing started." --- "The sooner he gets over here, the quicker he's going to adapt and the better he's going to get," Love said. "He has had a lot of hype surrounding him. It'll mean a lot for the fans. It'll make the game more exciting. By the way he was talking about it, he does want to come over here and I do think he'll play for our team. "If not, it'll be tough. I would love to play with him. I think he will come over and play here. I definitely think he'll play here." --- 封館會是個變數，但 Rubio 可以趕在舊版CBA到期前與灰狼簽約，前題是他想來，而且已經跟巴薩談好買斷合約事宜。另外 Love 會不定時傳簡訊給 Rubio 聯絡感情，告訴他灰狼需要他的加盟，越早來能越快適應環境。 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.115.221.184
