I don't think Rick wants another guy that can't shoot and needs the ball in his hands. I feel like Rubio is similar to Rondo in that way. Ricky shot WAY better than his career average from 3 last year which is encouraging but historically he is a guy that doesn't shoot many jumpers.
The bigger issue for me is actually his contract. If Ricky was expiring I could see a scenario where Mavs might talk themselves into a rental? As it is I think his contract wouldn't make sense given plan powder. And the fit on the court would be awkward.
