    I know how to count.

    The same guy re-tweeted that list. None of those rosters is appealing. Chicago: Taj is a similar salary. That's about all. NY? No thanks. NJ? Courtney Lee. I don't mind him, but Matthews if signed will be better. Boston? Avery Bradley is like 4 other people on our roster. Miami? They have no players.

    I hope Rudy goes somewhere he is appreciated for what he is, a Role Player. Not somewhere the management blows smoke up his ass. Blazer management fucked up on this one

    NJ needs to rebuild yet again. Harris does not fit their time line. Miller, Rudy, and AJ for Harris. NJ would be stupid to turn that down.

    Rudy hasn't earn the right to say he'd only play for a certain amount of NBA teams.

    I heard Rudy is demanding that if he stays, he is appointed Player/GM. Larry Miller is considering it.

    Not really.

    Drazen was the victim of a tragic accident. Rudy's wounds are self inflicted.

    Rudy for NY's unprotected 1st round pick sounds good to me. Hopefully the rumors of Isiah coming back on board as NY GM come true!

    More from Frank Isola.

    Knicks - Have nothing that makes any sense. A lot of their future picks are locked up by Houston.

    Nets - Future pick? Otherwise, they have nothing that makes sense.

    Boston - Gag

    Bulls - Taj Gibson makes sense but if they offer James Johnson -- hang up the phone.

    Heat - GTFOH

    Fuck Rudy and the Bull he rode in on. I say let his ass rot on the bench till we get an offer for a B/U PF.

    I don't think Paul Allen really gives a fuck about Rudy anymore and I wish all owners were like this.

    We got Mathews now. I can't remember such a Prima Dona Euro come over here who has proven nothing and demand things. Eurotrash !!!

    Time to change Avatar. Damn I once actually liked the dude.

    So, some anonymous person tweets and (most) everyone is cursing Rudy?

    Ever consider it might be a Knicks fan wishful thinking?

    Are you the folks for whom scopes.com has to debunk urban legends? "Someone put it on the internet so it MUST be true!"

    I have no idea whether or not this is true, but I would need a bit more than a tweet.

    crandc,
    it is snopes.com. I do think it is funny that rudy was loved by a lot of people here and now because of a anonymous twitter everyone hates him. don't get me wrong, I have thought rudy was worthless for a while now and I am happy to see him go. this just goes to show how fickle our fans can be.

    Not to say it lends it tons of credibility, but it wasn't just a random fan tweeting it, but a sportswriter. Yep, we all know sometimes they know nothing. Insert Ivaroni jokes here. And, sometimes they do know something. Who knows what the case is here. We do get the appearance that Rudy isn't very happy here. Who knows, he could have told the Blazers I won't play for those teams, and told other teams, so they wouldn't bother to trade for him.

    I would just bury him on the bench and tell him to go fuck himself until his contract if over.

    I don't think it is just this one tweet that's got people turned on Rudy. There were all those previous reports since I believe last summer about how unhappy Rudy has been here, and then whatever it was that he pulled in the playoffs this year to refuse to shoot the ball. It's not just one incident.
