Brooks was mad because he said Rudy told him "as long as I'm here you'll be here". Rudy proceeded to trade him for Morlon Wiley. That's Scott's account of it, at least. ------------------ I fell off the toilet! ---Estelle Costanza "I'll be gettin real drunk and making fun of everybody"
I remember when Elie(a Spur at the time) hit a game winner last season(or maybe it was the lockout season), his words were something to the effect of " there was some Bad BLood between me and HOuston, I had to show them what they got rid of....." oh yeah, more Mario news.... http://bbs.clutchcity.net/ubb/Forum2/HTML/001807.html ------------------ right on [This message has been edited by across110thstreet (edited April 30, 2001).]
What I remember about the Scotty Brooks situation was him saying something like "Rudy promised me he would never trade me" and Rudy later replied "I could never promise that to a player not even Hakeem" This is what I remember them saying an I think most of it is right. ------------------ ~John~ Help keep the obsessed thread alive post the reasons why you are an obsessed Rockets fan by clicking here
Rudy T Quote That was the closest I could find to a quote on Brooks' disappointment leaving Houston. He was upset immediately after the trade, not 4 months later (when playoff shares were decided). I remember it pretty well, so I don't know exactly where your first hand knowledge comes in. Unless... you're Scottie Brooks, aren't you? Man, your cover is blown now. ------------------ I'm about to boldly go where many men have gone before. [This message has been edited by SamCassell (edited April 30, 2001).]
