    The Lakers unloaded Shaquille O'Neal, questions still are festering around Kobe Bryant despite his sexual assault criminal case being dropped, and coach Phil Jackson was ousted and replaced by Rudy Tomjanovich.

    Asked to do a radio promo Monday during media day, Tomjanovich, who had spent the previous 34 years of his career with the Houston Rockets said, "Hi, this is Rudy Tomjanovich of the Houston Lakers."

    Yeah, the Lakers are different.

    ;)

    Damn, in Torpedo the Lakers entire Organization 101, we covered this subject matter. Rudy's cover is going to be blown.

    He might be making his money there but im sure we all know where his heart is and will still follow the Rockets this season.

    Elimination game between the Rox and Lakers in the playoffs:

    Rudy: Okay, we got 30 seconds to go and we're down by two. Slava, get in there for Kobe.

    Kobe: What.

    Rudy: Sorry Kobe. I'm just playing the percentages.

    Yeah I heard that comment on the Dan Patrick (espn) show earlier in the week and I thought they were just making it up.
    They were laffing about it for awhile.

    Certainly sounds like something he'd say, doesn't it? :D

    And considering how many former Knicks are in the Rockets organization now, it seems this way too . . .

    L.A. proved too much for the man
    [He couldn't make it]
    So he's leavin' the life he's come to know
    [He said he's goin']
    He said he's goin' back to find
    Ooh, what's left of his world
    The world he left behind
    Not so long ago
    He's leavin'
    On that Midnight Plane to Houston*
    Said he's goin' back
    To a simpler place in time


    *this was the title of the original song
