    No it doesn't. It all matters how he is used. For instance, when the Blazers went big, which was tremendously successful against Houston earlier in the series, he played PG and Rudy played SG, Outlaw was at SF.

    There is no way the blazers start Roy at PG on a regular basis during the regular season . . . and it would still makes me wonder if it is smart to make the best player on the team play out of position

    The only time Roy is out of position is when he doesn't have the ball. :cheers:

    I'm actually stoked that Rudy has done so great. I'm hoping he comes through tonight.
    Start him at the 2, Broy at the three.
    I do that in NBA2k9 and we're unstoppable, of course, i have J-Bay as the PG though :D he's nasty on the drives.

    What did we score in the 3rd when he started?

    I do agree starting him in this series probably gives us a best chance at winning.

    With Wafer out it makes Rudy an even better option. Von was going around Rudy, but now they don't have that.

    And they will have to put Brent Barry on him... Brent Barry is one of the few people Rudy can handle inside and out on defense.

    I will be very disappointed in Nate if Batum starts instead of Rudy. That would be a tragic mistake. Why hang Batum out to dry like that?

    I'm missing your point? Wouldn't benching a guy after starting him all season be hanging him out to dry?

    Rudy's playoff experience with show through tonight. I have a very strong feeling he will be the Blazers MVP of the game.
