    They should also check to see who retains possession.

    Too bad you can't overcome selective memory though.

    The #'s speak for themselves. Where are the Rudy haters now? He just dropped 32 on the knicks.

    You wanna to NOW lock the thread when GAY is getting closer to looking like KD. Typical Rudy Hater, when you can't criticize the #'s, you wanna to take your ball and go home.

    The facts are, since being with Toronto, Rudy has a) made teammates better: Demarr Derozan, b) affected winning, 2 game winning shots and 7-3 since the trade with wins against Clippers, Knicks (twice), Denver, and Indiana.

    All the while increasing his stats in every area.

    The numbers do indeed speak for themselves. 39% shooting with Toronto. .471 TS%. 19.2 shot attempts and only 7.5 makes out of those. 2.3 assists in 38.4 whopping minutes of ball-dominant play. He's making Kobe look selfless and pass-first by comparison, ha. He's making Durant's assist numbers look like Chris effing Paul.

    Rudy Gay is one of the most inefficient ball-hogging chuckers in the game today. He's impressive all right... impressive with how many possessions he can waste in one game.

    I thank God every day the Rockets traded him away when he was still a draft pick. Of course, Morey would never be dumb enough to give him a max contract, so he would still be gone anyway.

    Kevin Durant is and will be an All-time great, Rudy Gay is a below average player in the NBA on a horrible contract.

    Yeah, he is avg 20 points with the raptors. Isn't that what Durant did his rookie season with the supersonics when he hadn't hit puberty yet? By the way, Durant is 24 and further away from his prime then 26 year old gay. Durant is the Mozart of the NBA.

    Other players on their team have carried them to that level, with a healthy dose of luck
