Tweet of the week: Kevin Love charts Ricky Rubio’s progress in English

March 6, 2012

Not only did Kevin Love put in a superstar-level 39-point, 17-rebound performance in his Minnesota Timberwolves’ 95-94 win over the Los Angeles Clippers last night, he also has BallinEurope’s informal Tweet Of The Week award locked up on Tuesday. And the 141-characters-or-less bit of pithiness is (drumroll, please) …

“So I walk in to the training room this morning and Ricky Rubio calls me a douche. Looks like the Spaniard learned his new word for the week.”

Best tweeted comeback? Probably this: “didn’t you know? In Spanish douche means ‘NBA 3 point champion’.”
