    Cyber, any chance his absence is just a plan for him to lay low while the child abuse claims go away?

    interesting thought. But if that is the case then Morey needs to be on the phone working a trade for howard. Can't have that type of player on the team.

    I really do not know. I know the Rockets PR staff has been VERY careful with him and protecting him. They are all really sensitive in that locker room the last few days. That locker room was not fun last night. Ariza was being a ****. So I think this has taken a toll on everyone, on top of that a loss.

    I'm hoping all this irrational hate being directed towards the rockets by media and fans alike will help these guys come together. Its my only hope of overcoming McFail's coaching:(

    Working so close with PR like I have in the past, this concerns me. If a high profile athlete or actor knows major news is about to break step 1 is to either get out in front of it, and release the news yourself through your mouthpiece or if its going to be really bad get the hell out of the way and duck for cover.

    The accusations "seem" like something, but you never know what is about to be released.

    Could be nothing... could mean disaster & distraction to the entire season. The fact that there is literally no explanation of the type of knee injury and how he get it doesn't make me too warm and fuzzy about what's next. Hopefully it's just a little knee bruise, and stupid baby mama drama.

    Yeah I doubt that would ever be explicit. If anything a passive aggressive move. The point is pushed when our front line gets destroyed. Morey just thinks we need more depth without a player having to say anything.

    This is complete speculation and I actually highly doubt that's the reality. Just something I thought might be an angle to look at.

    nah, if that was the case why even make him available after shootaround? You can tell reporters to only ask basketball questions, but do you think that's really going to happen? That PR person that jumped in when the question was asked only draws more attention to it. Just let Dwight say no comment until they stop asking.

    Maybe he was cringing inside as he was watching either Black or Dorsey

    Morey did look out of it. He really couldn't even answer the questions put to him.

    Yeah... watching his team get beat by one of the worst teams in the league after three horrific games in a row will do that to someone.

    Plus they were wanting him to say something prolific about analytics on live TV in a 30 second soundbite. He had to be like... "are you freaking kidding? You want the Quadratic Equation written out or something?"... "yeah the owner is really the mastermind".

    Cause we've guaranteed him 88 MILLION dollars. We pay him handsomely to go out there and risk his body!

    I heard he sounded bad on his interview with the local radio show here. Heard it was real short!
