    Bayless or Martell can start at the 2. Mills can play back up PG. Rudy is not needed.

    He's 25 years old and he's been a pro for 8 seasons. He is what he is at this point, isn't he? He's not suddenly going to turn into a point guard, or even someone who can drive to the hoop without turning the ball over. May as well go big and start Martell next game.

    If I'm Portland, I sit Rudy and then trade him NEXT summer.

    Yeah, like using a single-game +/- stat... showing that you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.

    Learn about the stats. Learn the game. Then, still don't post.

    Traded for what? Some practice shorts and some used practice balls? His salary is too low to get anything of value in return, unless somebody wants to trade a draft pick for him.

    I think you're right. What he doesn't realize is that now, no one will want him. Rudy MUST be benched in Game 3. He shouldn't play AT ALL.

    I believe they're yelling "LOU!" for Amundson.

    Oh, I could beat you senseless. You want stats? 3 of 16 shooting in three starts. Boom. Get out of here.

    More like, "After years of d-bag posts, ignore 'em." Funny thing is, I think I've been one of your biggest fans for years, even when I didn't post much (under other SN's). But you've gone stale, lame, and unbearable.

    So you know, MARIS, that's 18.7% shooting.

    Rudy's career playoff shooting percentage as a starter in three games is 18.7%.

    Fuck. This PapaG guy is in a lot of posters' heads. Do you post about games, or just other posters to feel better about yourself?

    One, what of value are we really going to get for him? Two, you're going to bail on us, enjoy the needles in your ass. You're under contract, sit, and ride the pine. Kill his FA value.

    If you listened to the Suns' announcers, you would have thought that this series ended tonight.

    We cannot even get a bag of chips for Rudy at this point.
