Nobody took a personal shot at you drpepper, unless you meant my "dumb comment" comment. I didn't mean you were dumb, I meant the comment was, but I was wrong and I apologize for that. But to judge Rudy on 2nd round picks doesn't make any sense whatsoever. And to disregard picks that worked out, like Othella, Dickerson, Cassell, and Horry doesn't make any sense. And yes Othella helped lead the Rockets to the playoffs, if it wasn't for him stepping in and contributing big minutes when Barkley went down the first month or so of the 1999 season the Rockets would have been in serious trouble. You don't have to be a superstar to lead a team to the playoffs, just an important cog in the team. ------------------ "I'm not here to protect my reputation, I'm here to make my reputation!
