    That's true........ But do you know who is a great passer on break? Conley that's who.... Don't you love him?

    I think what Conley does best is what he's always done- whatever his team needs. What a player he has become, right! I don't know what the Grizzlies would do without him. What is really great about Conley is what he does in crunch time- he knows what time it is, that's for sure. What will he do tonight? What will be our response? Who knows what will happen.

    Doubt Les wants waste money on something like that when he probably knows they would just be taken home and he would have to keep buying more and more.

    But did you even know that not only is Conley a great leader for his team but that he might not get into the all star game? In my humble opinion he deserves to be there. His offensive and defensive ratings are up this year and he could also potentially be the most improved haircut going from a regular ordinary fade to fantastic fro-hawk.... What do you think?

    Koufos is no slouch though. They'll be tough in the paint.

    I'm pretty sure Smith is going to get plenty of minutes but did you know that Mike Conley is one of the leagues leaders in minutes played? I think he is an outstanding and underrated player that deserves more praise.... What do you think?

    Yes, especially with Marc Gasol and Conley.

    If we lose tonight to the Grizzlies in their house, I would please remind Rockets fans that this does not mean:

    a. We will miss the playoffs;
    b. We are not a championship team;
    c. The Josh Smith experiment is a failure;
    d. We should have kept Tarik Black instead of Smith;
    e. You will never watch another Rockets game again;
    f. It is b/c McHale got his extension and now refuses to coach;
    g. Daryl Morey is the worst GM in sports;
    h. We have major locker room issues;
    i. DudeWah was right;
    j. DaDakota was right;
    k. Bobbythewhatever was right;
    l. The basketball gods hate us;
    m. You will not want to get laid tonight;
    n. You should drink until you pass out;
    o. We should implement the triangle;
    p. You will never visit ClutchFans again;
    q. Kevin Martin was the answer;
    r. Chase Budinger was the answer;
    s. You will never purchase a Rockets ticket;
    t. Charles Barkley was 100% spot-on about the Rockets;
    u. You will stop watching basketball altogether;
    v. You would rather be a Mavericks fan;
    w. You are ashamed at giving up 2.5 hours of your life;
    x. You will burn your Houston Rockets jersey;
    y. You will fast until the Rockets win again;
    z. You will shave your beard in protest.

    Hmmm, I'm not sure exactly why the interviewer was pushing the topic so hard but I personally believe that IF Conley was a journalist that he would have asked Harden and Howard about Harden and Howard and what they think about the brand new Rocket that just signed...... But that's beyond the point, Conley cannot do everything. Or maybe he can. Did you know that Conley is one of the most efficient player in the league with absolutely extraordinary decision making? Did you know that once Conley saved a kitten from a fire and then put the fire out by running downhill on break so that the breeze from his body could engulf the flames? Did you know that? Did you know he is not in the all star? hu? Shouldn't he be? What do you think?

    "Man, when Lowry was a Rocket, he would always show up his buddy Mike Conley."

    That's what we should tell that interviewer.
