Morey defending hero-ball: Full Q&A http://www.nba.com/rockets/news/q_with_daryl_morey_pril_5_2012_04_03.html (I didn't want to quote the whole thing, so Jason Friedman gets some hits)
Haha yeah that was my thought. I have never seen so many preteen girls into the Rockets than this year. I think Parsons gets credit for that. Also Morey's daughter is a twilight fan. Some people think Parsons resembles Edward Cullen.
Went to that post-game event for season ticket holders (or maybe it was for a certain promotion) about a month or so ago. I was about 5-10 feet behind Parsons and Lee as they went in. You would have thought Justin Bieber entered the room.
Maybe Morey should only get preteen-friendly players in the future. Preteen fans can be the new Chinese fans, no? Candidates for acquisition? I nominate Gordon Hayward.
Parsons is awesome. Nice though that dragic looks like him. Maybe morey gets confused and we will keep both for the long term
Yeah Courtney Lee is another Rockets heartthrob, but I think he's got a larger share of older women gahgahing over him. I think it was the Social Media Night you are talking about that took place in the Lexus Lounge. I went to that but didn't get a chance to take a photo or get an autograph from anyone but PatPat simply because the female mobs around Parsons and Lee were too big to fight through.
If the tweens are into vampires... It could be Dragic? Dragic resembles Parker Posey in Blade Trinity more than Parsons does to Twilight.
Too big as in the number of ladies involved or the size of each individual lady? Also.. Wonder what it was? Subbing in Dragic?
I just went to Parsons' Twitter page to see who is following him at this very moment (100 people were currently tuned in). 3rd on the list is Miss Texas USA http://twitter.com/#!/AnaChristinaRod
