    The US plays Spain this Weekend. Wonder if Nate and Rudy will be greeting each other with big hugs?

    Nate will tell Kevin Love to commit a "hard foul" on him.

    I am pretty sure that Nate will tell everybody to be physical with him. He knows what throws him off his game.

    Even worse, Nate does put the hit out on him, then rudy comes back to help lead us to a couple titles, the rudy find out about said hit.

    The Rudy chapter is something we need to close.

    Nate's too classy to "put a hit" on a player. He'd want to get even with Rudy "the right way" by motivating his best defensive players to suffocate his ass.

    I hope Rudy lights us up. I think he quit on us last year, and am looking for evidence to support my impression. The better he plays against the US, the higher his trade value.

    Did Rudy forget "former"? Or is his agent making more of a fuss than Rudy actually would himself? Or is "cordial" some kind of euphemism?

    One (medicinal) definition of cordial is, "Any invigorating and stimulating preparation" [wikipedia]. So, perhaps a conversation with his despised coach--in advance of a game against him--is exactly that.

    By hitting 5 3s in the last playoff game? Guess he did that just to show what he could have done all along.
