    I can't seem to remember the guy's name, but I immediately recognized him at the gas pump right next to me.

    Anyways, He gave me a piece of info others may not know...

    The December 21st game against the Spurs will be here! For those who plan on attending

    He also said his gut feeling is Morey will strike a major move b/c of the pace of decision making in such a short time. But I'm not sure much should be extracted from that.

    I'm just glad we're getting Rockets basketball back

    I thought the season didn't start until December 25th?

    We play the Spurs twice during the preseason. Once on the 17th and once on the 21st and that's it.

    I think our first regular season game will be on the 26th.

    Did he specifically say when? Like before the season starts or before the trade deadline?

    bigbodymoe, edit out the physical description of the guy. In case he gets into trouble.

    Anyhow, my gut feeling is Morey won't strike a major move, just because. Though, not much should be taken from that. ;) :p

    Why? These folks all look alike.

    Glasses, short sleeved button up shirt, pocket protector, TI-86.

    I'm pretty sure the game on the 17th is the one here and the 21st will be there, unless the Rockets decide to change the games back to 7:30 after announcing they would start games at 7pm during the summer.

    EDIT: http://www.nba.com/gameline/rockets/ from the preseason thread shows the game on the 17th its a Rockets home game....

    He probably meant the season's start. Since Morey has always been known for swinging deals quickly. Whatever you may think of him otherwise, he is at least always prepared.

    I used to see some Rockets personnel and some other NBA players when I used to take classes at UHD last year. Saw Jack Sikma, Daryl Morey, Arron Afflalo and Jordan Hill.

    Everyone of them were super nice.

    Last week I saw Kevin Martin, Scola, and Lowry hanging out with Bigfoot at Cesar's palace. No pics but they were there.

    I would love to meet Lowry. Him and Arian Foster are two guys I would love to have a conversation with.

    Both seem smart and humble so they wouldn't back off our act like a douche.
