    I couldn't help but notice that Cat sat out almost the entire 4th quarter. I think I remember him making a stupid turnover and Rudy benched him. He needs that every once in a while.

    He had made 2 or 3 really bad plays in a row. After they took him out, the team started to click again, so there was no reason to put him back in. It would be nice if Rudy T. would pull Mobley or Franics when they start doing their "hot dog" dribbling act. They each lost the ball by doing the fat dribble between the legs trick while letting the shot clock wind down.

    My thought is that Rudy is shoping Shandon and Cato around for the last few games. the offence has been run more throught Shandon than through Mobley, and Cato has actually been performuing. He is showing the league that they have value.

    Im sure cat and steve dont mind taking a lesser role in order to get rid of the guys that dont fit in with the team.

    I notice Mobley wasn't put back in as well. Rudy should have done that more often this year when Mobley made bone-headed plays that hurt the team. I noticed this season he sat down Steve a number of times when he made bad decisions, but I can rarely remember when he ever sat Mobley for making the same bad decisions.
