That is good news. I wondered how these two would coexist since both are use to being "the man". I thought their chemistry had looked better until the last game when Rudy had an off game. Some of that is due to Nate not playing Rudy much in the 4th quarter. I don't know about the rest of you but I would like to see us roll out a lineup of Roy, Rudy, Travis, LMA and Oden as our 4th quarter closing team.
In the little to nothing I know of the inner-workings of the lockerroom I just can't see anyone not getting along with Brandon.
I don't think there's much question about Roy, Rudy, LMA and Oden. Travis I'm not so sure about. You go with whichever among Travis, Blake, Batum, Sergio or Webster (when he's back) is playing best that night.
Nice puff peice. Always fun to read glowing articles about players on your team. I'd love to see Rudy and Roy play together in the backcourt for solid stretches of games, to see how viable it is as a "standard configuration."
You would think but they are human and there are always issues that come up. Like last year LMA felt slighted by Roy for not inviting him over. It's also human nature to get jealous especially with Roy and Oden getting so much national attention.
I think that is a pretty fair statement. I am sure he will rub some people the wrong way. Too bad for them. Jealousy will always rear its ugly head. It is inevitible. But I am glad Rudy is not one of them. I was concerned with how it would work out between Rudy, Roy, Martel and Bayless.
Rudy and Roy without a PG late in the game is not ideal - Roy does not see the rest of the team that well, and the offense does not flow (at least not so far). Sergio or even Blake needs to be in the game. iWatas
The biggest difference between Roy and Rudy is that Rudy can be extremely successful moving without the ball. He can spot up, he can slash, he is athletic. Roy on the other hand likes to have the ball in his hands. They can totally play together.
