Ricky Rubio Says Rudy Gobert Has No Class After Spain Beats France

September 17th, 2015 by Thomas Duffy Leave a reply »

Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Ricky Rubio and Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert are leaders of two of the youngest and most promising teams in the Western Conference.

They're international rivals, too.

Spain defeated Gobert and France, 80-75, in an overtime EuroBasket semifinal Thursday, and the big fella fouled out as Pau Gasol put a monumental 40 points on him.

Gobert's day ended in the extra period as his team fell behind. After scoring eight points and pulling down 13 boards, he posted a message complaining about the officiating:



Fellow Frenchman Nicolas Batum missed three crucial free throws that would have tied the game in OT. He congratulated his opponents and wished them luck:



The Spaniard Rubio quoted both tweets and called Batum a "class act" while saying Gobert is "no class act."



Gulp.
