Rudy Watch

I believe Spain plays in the quarterfinals this evening, somewhere in the late night block on the USA channel.  If that's accurate I'm going to try and watch to get another look at Rudy.  You can use this as a Gameday Thread if you wish.

For those who have asked, I was uber-slammed all weekend.  After staying up all Friday night I did manage to catch the first three quarters of the Spain-US game on Saturday (right up until Rudy hit the floor hard) before I literally fell asleep watching it.  I haven't had time to go back and watch the ending and what I saw didn't really bring any new impressions to the table so I didn't do an official recap.  I'll do one for this game though.

Croatia is one of the surprises of the tourney. They are the team with the least recognizable team, with only Zoran Planinic a name known to U.S. basketball fans.

Never knowing that the past would make us feel alone
But now, that all the cover’s blown

Don’t wait before you try and let this go

You’ve got this dirty little secret
You’re trying hard to keep it
Out of sight, out of mind
But you can’t hide

Weird international rules: Garbajosa committed quite a normal NBA foul, and they call it an intentional foul – two freethrows and the ball. All he did was grab the arm of the player, and it was ruled as the equivalent of a Flagrant I.

I'm not trying to put to much stock into these olympic games since it seems to all be about dumping the ball to

Gasol and get out of the way. From the look of these past few games it’s looking like Rudy is going to be a project player. Hopefully the Blazers will teach him something when he gets here and he’ll find more ways to get involved.

Don't worry my friend

Rudy is gonna be good. He’s a creative, smart player who likes to stay active and make plays.

He can shoot, score, dribble, he’s good.

You’re expectations mighta’ been high, but just wait for the real season to start and give him a few years to learn the NBA.

Thank You Rudy!

You’ve now scored more than my dog has farted during this game!

I just had to shut ‘em outside. It’s like all of his payback is coming tonight…

Rudy put on his lucky wristbands after the 3rd quarter

The ones Bayless sent him didn’t work well.

Not to be a Rudy fun killer, but ehh...

Croatia’s help D is about 1/4th as good as my high school team’s help D

Otherwise, those were Jordan-esque drives.

All of Spain has sensitive skin

That’s why they all got stubble It’s why I do.

And just like Spain, I am comfortable in admitting that.

They don't sell shaving cream for sensitive skin in Spain?

Or good electric shavers? Only knives and rusty blades?

You know when the other team is making a charge back and Spain is playing flat Rudy scores for them. Then they take him

out when the lead is safe. Is that a good or bad thing? It’s not much of an incentive to play well if they pull you for scoring. I saw Rudy with waving that he was open and the guy just drove with two defenders on him. Are they black balling Rudy or what?

Yes

But the skin is sensitive so they trim with clippers.

Hey

Took away what I wrote.

I said “Yes, but everyone has sensitive skin so they use clippers”. Now I sound snippy and terse.

Sergio is watching at home

In a dark room, the TV on mute, watching the last PG on the bench come in for the mop up minutes…

That time, this is SERGIO’s time, not his…

He will pay… they will ALL pay…

Greece

since when did they get so good at BBall? Interesting to see, but strange. I think it has to do with $$$
