I think if Rudy is going to rush back, this would be a good time to do so. This is a BIG game for us. I still think the two OKC games are the biggest remaining in the season.
The the fact that he's on the court helps our offense. He stretches the court and this zone defense we've been hearing about will have to be dumped and Dallas will have to go man 2 man!
Assuming he can hit a few shots from the outside. Like in Phoenix if we don't hit a shot or two in the zone they'll stay in the zone until we do.
