Congratulations. You just earned a spot on ignore list. Because of course only women behave like Rudy. Or LeBron. Or.....
I defended Rudy for so long, that it was hard to diss him when started his complaining. I sincerely hope he plays hard and figures out a role on the team, because I love his game, and would hate to see him flourish elsewhere.
It would be funny if a whole lot of people showed up cheering for him. That would really confuse him. heh
Welcome to the world of the Ignore List - now you know how to use it (thanks to 44Thrilla) you can go wild! Makes reading some threads much quicker, and almost all threads more pleasant.
Cho is going to Conzano @ 5:35. I assume they're going to be talking about Rudy Tooty Fresh & Fruity.
didn't Wes shoot a higher % of 3's? and we know Batum did and they both play good to great D - not Rudy's matador D, let him rot.
I'm happy Rudy is coming back. It will give an opportunity for some face to face dialogue. If I were Cho, I would have the VC make a video of Rudy's play in the second half of the season and juxtapose it with this summer in Spain. I would then tell Rudy that everyone wants the same thing: For Rudy to be on another team, and in short order. However, Rudy--through sandbagging so much in the last 41 games and the playoffs--has lowered his value below the level to where we're better off just keeping him. Then have Nate and Rudy come to terms about his role with this team that can maximize his value so he can be traded. Send the message that Rudy holds his future in his hands. He's a hell of a ballplayer. Give 100% and we should be able to move him before the New Year.
So much for that: http://blog.oregonlive.com/behindblazersbeat/2010/09/agent_is_unsure_whether_rudy_f.html In Portland, but won't show to media day?! WTF, Andy.
Quick on 95.5 intimated that Rudy and Andy Miller might be going their separate ways soon. Rudy was not happy about the fine, and their relationship apparently seems strained.
I think that would be a wise move on Rudy's part. From where I'm sitting it does not appear this Miller guy has represented Rudy well.
1. The Choad is Burmese-American, so the Viet Cong reference is inaccurate in addition to being in very poor taste. 2. Most fans would much rather see Rudy play well and help us win a Championship than be traded to help some opponent win a Championship instead. 3. Nate will never change enough to be able to effectively coach offensively creative players.
