The Rudy Watch

If the Rockets give away many more games like this at home, they aren't going to make the playoffs (especially considering the Laker charge of late).

And if they don't, given their payroll and talent level (which is playoff caliber at this point), how in the world is Les Alexander going to get rid of Rudy Tomjanovich? Will the guy step down gracefully? Will Les be able to fire him? I mean, just how do you get rid of Mr. Rocket?

I hope they make the playoffs and it doesn't come to that, because I'm a big Rudy T fan. But I'm not as confident about it as I was earlier in the season.
