    He’s been incredible,” Morey said. “Robert is someone who’s going to be an NBA rotation player. He has tremendous skill, tremendous attitude, and he’s grown so much in his time here. We’re probably going to have to find time for him in the rotation next year, with the Rockets.”

    LMFAO, once you go black you'll never come back? :grin: Just kiddin', but was very funny when first read that.

    “I got to see what it’s like up there, what it’s like to be a professional,” Covington said. “You have guys like (Rockets players) Francisco Garcia and Dwight Howard who take you under your wing. You go work out with them, hang out with them, and you see what life is like at the NBA level. You have Jeremy Lin calling up almost every day, checking on you. That’s motivation. It motivates you to keep working hard, so that way when you’re up there you can contribute.”

    Great article. I usually expect to learn nothing I don't already know because this place digs up a lot, but that was fantastic.

    Normalus, you have problems. If you read that into that... yeah, you have problems.
