Honestly I thought this was either the best bluff ever by an NBA team or most likely the end of the Rubio dream we all have.

The Oklahoma City Thunder have hired a prestigious Barcelona law firm to assist them should they draft Spanish guard Ricky Rubio.
Rubio has a large buyout with Spanish team DKV Joventut Badalona, and Thunder officials are using the firm to brief them on the country’s contract law and procedures. Thunder GM Sam Presti met with Rubio and his agent this past weekend.
Rubio reportedly has made progress on lowering his buyout to $4 million, still a hefty cost, but he also reportedly could be allowed to make payments over several years.
Well it looks like we should open up a WELCOME EVANS thread at this point.
(also i realize someone else already posted this in the misc Rubio thread but this type of news i think deserved its own thread... If not my bad)
