Abstract [Rudy Tomjanovich], 54, took over as the Rockets' coach midway into the 1991-92 season and compiled a 503-397 record, easily becoming the winningest of the team's nine coaches. The Rockets' championships in 1994 and 1995 were the city's first titles in a major sports league. The Rockets made Tomjanovich the second overall selection in the 1970 draft out of Michigan. He started the franchise's first game in Houston on Oct. 14, 1971, after the Rockets moved from San Diego. Tomjanovich also survived one of the scariest moments in NBA history on Dec. 9, 1977, when Los Angeles Lakers forward Kermit Washington blindsided him with a powerful punch that sent him crashing to the floor with shattered facial bones. Doctors later said the injuries were life-threatening, but Tomjanovich returned the following season wearing a protective mask and made one of his five appearances in the NBA all-star game.
