    He sure sounds happy!

    (In fairness, Arturas is always mellow like this.)

    Interesting tid bit was when he had the reporter reiterate she meant the player picked tonight. Obviously something else was on the mind of Arturas.

    Looks like an Aaron Brooks shooter, quick release, shoot from anywhere. Looks to be better running off screens though, that will be good for the Rockets.

    Howard doesn't like the Rockets performance of the Draft night.

    Okay. I'm going to go ahead and ask - who the hell is Arturas Karnisovas? I've never even heard of this guy.

    He still needs to improve a lot of things, but his 3pt shooting, defense, and steals are excellent.

    His court vision has improved each year. He needs to cut down on turnovers, and he probably should not drive to the hoop unless it is in transition until he is ready. This will help cut down on turnovers and getting swatted/shooting contested shots around the rim.

    Could be reading too much into it but I picked that up too.

    Also sounded like Rockets got burned on a few 1st round opportunities.

    Even though he may be mellow, he looked disappointed. Not a great night for the Rox I think.

    Murray is the Warren Buffet of the NBA.

    Why would anyone question this pick?

    It's a second rounder?

    Cheap, high output player.

    Y'all know how he does it!

    Value investing in action...."Intelligent Investor", Benjamin Graham style. (book...get it)

    Might be traded....might be kept....might be D-league....either way....it has zero impact on the summer time goals.

    He pans out....great...he doesnt? And?

    I'm surprised T-Rob is still a rocket, tho.

    He was just unsure if she wanted him to talk about the team or Canaan.

    Morey needs good company when scouting in Russia where it can be troublesome.
