Rubio is probably the most ready player in this draft.  He has been playing aginst men, not boys, in the Euroleague since he was 17.  You realize that any good Euroleague team would absolutely destroy even the very best NCAA teams, right?

I definitly beg to differ on that front.  You play NCAA rules and I think the college players win for instance UNC from last year can beat a good euroleague team.

Not a chance, regardless of the rules. Most guys who were stars at U.S. colleges can't even get roster spots on the Euroleague teams.  They play in the second tier overseas leagues, e.g. the Spanish or Italian leagues.

If Real Madrid joined the NBA tomorrow, it would by no means be the worst team in the league.

Agree with the 5.  Rubio is the wild card. Hard to project 18 year olds stats versus grown men. Some people say his stats suck, so he'll be garbage, but the age difference is a major factor. I went to DePaul University in Chicago and I remember Tommy Kleinschmidt who had just graduated playing one on one versus Quentin Richardson and he repeatedly killed Q. I'm pretty sure a year or 2 later Richardson, would have destroyed Kleinschmidt. So, I wouldn't read too much into Rubio's poor stats. He'll probably be a completely different 9better0 player at 20 or 21.
