    Rofl did the interpreter just ask if he needed to translate that? Or was that someone else?

    Damn...as fast as the guy is translating, there's still so much down time for McHale. Give him a book or something.

    Trade Smith for a second round pick (he has no place on this team). Cut Williams. Covington and Cannan should just be put in the D-league.

    That wasn't a fadeaway, it was a travel.

    Our team is looking really really good and this is without our 3rd best player.

    This is going to be an exciting year. We are going to obliterate other teams night in and night out.

    Go Rockets :cool:

    Covington is not a known product where as so many of the other Rockets are (Smith, Williams, AB, Camby). You cut these guys before Covington as Covington could develop into a big contributor.

    LOL @ McHale during post-game conference

    Question: How do you think Jeremey played?

    Answer: I think he played great. . . . . he has been playing well in practice and carried it over to the game which is great to see. . . . . . very happy with how he has played.

    Translater: (Talks in Chinese for 2-3 minutes)

    McHale: You sure I said all that??? (laughing)

    The interpreter is speaking as quick as he can. McHale should just give short answers lol...

    not bashing but our team is stacked

    cant make excuses anymore. great starting lineup, pretty good bench

    we have two top 10 centers on the same team

    I was undecided last year about Mchale's coaching, sometimes I liked it sometimes I didn't. I thought that when the playoffs got here that he did a good job of coaching then.

    Yeah, I think Covington has upside. He looked really good in the camp/scrimmage footage... I'm hoping he and Canaan just need some time to adjust to the big stage and the pressure that comes with it.

    I think it's pretty telling that AB is the only person cleared to play who didn't get put in tonight. I genuinely forgot he was even there.

    Nobody calls me out on Chuck Hayes knowledge, the greatest Rockets center inbetween Yao Ming and Dwight Howard.
