    Just watched it. Great interview!

    Tylor's talk is much better than last night. ;) He seems to be very confident in his score ability.

    Budinger is a movie fan, has more than 500 movies. Favor movie is gladiator. He seems to be a fun guy.

    Taylor hasn't watched the Rockets. He didn't mention Artest, but he mentioned T-Mac, who has barely played.

    He doesn't play video games! He is a gym rat. That's a good sign for his career.

    lol haha jermaine taylor sounds like a kid whos a superstar coming into town to play alongside a supporting cast of yao ming and tracy mcgrady:

    “The Rockets got a player who’s going to work hard. I’m going to work as hard as I can in practice, go in and do what the coaches are asking. I’ve got a scorer’s mentality; I know how to put the ball in the hoop. I’ve always been the focal guy on every team I’ve played for, and now I’ll have guys like Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady playing along side me to draw so much attention, so now I’m going to get open shots and be able to create for others. So I’m real excited to be here and anxious to get started.”

    looks like apparently hes gonna be the go-to guy on this contender and create shots for yao and tmac and be the man on the team haha

    Jermaine Taylor reminds me of Ricky Davis, who was playing for the Cavs when they drafted Lebron James and commented "I love the pick cuz he's gonna help me score."

    Yea i noticed that too... for some reason though Jason tried to shake his hand with his left for some reason so that may be it.

    Jason is a really good interviewer.....one criticism though......make the chairs angled towards each other.....both looking forward and having to lean to talk is annoying to someone that has a broadcast journalism degree.....it is all about the angles baby !!

    If he can reach Ricky Davis's level, this is a very good draft.

    It's not a video of the press conference. It's a Jason Friedman exclusive, so it only be viewed at rockets.com

    You may have to upgrade or reinstall adobe flash player to view it.
