    Rudy mentioned the players he loved to coach:

    Dream
    Clyde
    Otis
    Sam
    Steve
    Yao
    Mo

    That's right Mo Taylor!

    I bet coach JVG loves coaching Pat. What a joke.

    he did say mario and then mentioned mo with steve and yao as newer guys he coached.


    he did not mention how sad he was to miss out on coaching juwan.

    I thought Rudy had problems with Otis Thorpe. Isn't that why he traded him?

    Actually, Rudy and Otis were extremely close, personally. Their families had Thanksgiving dinner together. That was the hardest decision he ever had to make in terms of a trade, but it was the only way to get Drexler.

    I'm surprised he didn't mention Moochie or Maloney.

    I can understand Pippen, but Bark in my mind did atleast put up numbers for us... Do most of us ROX fans not like Barkley??

    I love Barkley. He was the goods even if he was a senior citizen when he played for the Rockets. Besides, you were always guaranteed a great quote.

    I can't imagine CB4 was a joy to coach. Love him on TNT though.

    Funny, as Barkley was probably Rudy T's most vocal supporter in the late 90's.
