    I'm one of those people who really really want this to happen. I've been waiting for this since last year. But I respect your opinion. But it is a business decision. Nothing personal on him but he sucks as a coach. I think anyone with no experience can coach that team better than him. It is time for a change. Do not be sentimental.

    Bye Rudy. Go Rockets!!!!

    It's not like Rudy died or something. Hell, he's not even leaving the Rockets organization. Hell, he's not even unemployed. He'll still get paid his millions in a cushy front office.

    I'm sure Rudy's a nice guy and all, wish him the best, etc etc blah blah blah...but no sympathy here.

    I wouldn't classify it as a cheap shot. From what I know, he's kicked the habit. To me, Rudy definitely seems as one of those cool guys you'd run into at the bar. I don't think he'd take it as being disrespectful if they did name the bars after him, but I wasn't being that serious.

    I do hope they honor him as a coach in some manner...

    That is what people have been asking for two years now. Another year, another year. Another year of under-achieving. No more. The fans deserve better than that. Nothing against him. Nothing personal. But this team need a new coach.

    And I am SO HAPPY THAT IT WILL BE GRANTED. MERRY CHRISTMAS.

    good riddance to Rudy T. Now Les can find a "real" basketball coach who can teach the fundamentals and team ball to the two idiots - Mobeley and Francis!
