    Most three pointers in a season for a rookie! Rudy broke the old Kerry Kittles record! Congratz Rudy!

    I loved how excited everyone on the team was when Rudy broke the record. Really shows this is a team when so much emotion is shown for a players personal record.

    Any doubt Rudy would have been in the top 5 in last years draft?

    I still am not sure, this was a really good draft class. Butin my eyes, he should be.

    And Rudy is already 24 years old. I love him and all, but there's no doubt in my mind that he would've been in the second tier of the lottery.

    Damn, that Randolph deal was really bad for the Blazers. Why did we trade away someone who is just as good as Chris Bosh?

    Before it's all said and done, he'll be better than one of those players. I guarantee it.

    Funny, right after Rudy broke the record, my cat Rudy came and sat by me on the couch, something he never does. Maybe he realized his namesake did something special (although he is not actually named for Rudy Fernandez).

    You could tell him he is. It would make him happy.

    Tell who, barfo? Tell Rudy the ballplayer my cat is named for him, or tell Rudy the cat he's named for Rudy Fernandez? Problem with Door #2 is my cat already knows he's named for Rudolf Nureyev.

    I meant the cat. But if you've already told him about Nureyev then my plan won't work.

    Sorry to bring you guys down a bit, but did anybody else see when BRoy and Trav and those guys gave him big hugs when he came out at the end of the game that Rudy was wincing and holding his back. Hope he gets some rest!

    That's the image that stuck in my mind too.

    Man, I wish Kerry Kittles didn't hold that record before him. It seems ominous.
