    Didn't Hollinger work in Portland at one time? Don't quote me, but I *think* he went from Portland to Atlanta to SI to ESPN.

    I also like "The Natural." It fits his smooth, effortless-looking game.

    Shame Sergio isn't French. The nickname "The Maginot Line" would suggest itself.

    Ru(d)y is actually a pretty decent team defender - it's his man-to-man defense that sucks. In other words - he is half the defender he should be.

    If d is the 4th letter of the alphabet and b is the 2nd and Ru(d)y is half the defender he should be - maybe we should call him Ruby.
