Ricky Rubio 17 Points/11 Assists Full Highlights (4/24/2019)

Full title of this video since YouTube is being a bitch and won’t let me put so many characters in: “Ricky Rubio 17 Points/11 Assists/1 Airball Three/1 Harden Doggy-styled/1 Fourth-Quarter Collapse/1 Early Playoff Exit Full Highlights (4/24/2019)”. I like my video titles to be clear representations of what is contained in the video. Except, I guess, I didn’t show any of those last four things. This vid ends with Rubio hitting one of his crazy off-balance midrange leaner jumper things; you don’t get to see the total Jazz implosion that occurred in the minutes and thirty seconds after that.

I will say that up until the very end, Rubio played a great game. Unlike a certain other “star” player that Utah has, and that’s all I’m going to say about that for now. These last two games, Rubio turned it on (in the process, turning a lot of other people on) and played like the Rubio of old. The old Rubio who could actually make layups without airballing them, the one who could hit jumpers and rack up double-digit assists like it’s nothing. That is what we saw these last two games, and then Snyder takes the ball out of his hands at the end and the Jazz get sent home.

No reason to be sad, Utahbros. You guys had a great season, and just had the bad luck of being matched up with the Rockets. There was not really a path to winning this series for them once it was discovered that trying that gimmick overplay defense against Harden wasn’t going to work. It was just a matter of how many games, and it turned out to be only five, but that doesn’t invalidate all the fun times that were had and all the friends we made along the way.
