    I usually say, 'You saw one of my movies, huh?' They say, "Was he in that, I've seen him somewhere.'

    That's awesome.

    Dropping that quote on everyone after winning the championship should be HOF material enough.

    Just an amazing person. Amazing coach, list goes on.

    It's funny, I think I I've watched the two Clutch City videos enough to memorize every line. Those two seasons are something I'll never forget.

    Couldn't have asked for a better coach for it.

    Really disheartening to see a good honest humble guy like Rudy not get his due (ie HOF)... while loudmouth prima donnas are coddled and given the world....

    and the fact that he is not part of this organization in some capacity is a travesty...

    Never gets old. Possibly the best quote in the history of quotes.

    "Don't Ever Underestimate the Heart of a Champion!"

    The NBA can thank Tomjanovich for that timeless quote which is always used in the finals advertising montage and repay him by placing him in the Hall of Fame. Long overdue.

    My imagination of hanging out with Rudy:

    Flight from LA to Houston lands and Rudy stops by the cockpit on his way out, "Great flight, run it again!"
    Grabs smoothie from smoothie-king, "Great smoothie, make it again!"
    Dinner at a friend's house is over, "Thanks for dinner tonight, let's do it again!"
    Puts on a pair of pants that fit well, "I should wear these again!"
    Goes to the doctor to get a check up, "Don't ever underestimate the heart of a champion!"

    Les, "Would you like you're old job back?"
    Rudy, "No thanks, you'd just fire me again!"
