With Lopez Edit: Sorry, bad reception at work, couldn't hear most of it. Hope someone else heard more. He will contribute to the team with his shooting (from kickouts by Yao and TMac). Was a fan of TMac as far back as in the Toronto days. 790 usually replay these types of interviews.
I just tunned it, but it seems like they are talking about the astros... I am streaming it off the website so I dont know.
Sorry guys that I couldn't hear the whole thing. Yeah, it was really short. Some of the questions that were asked and I couldn't hear the answer. 1) Was he surprised about the trade on draft day. 2) About leaving early from school. 3) Comparing him to Melo.
hopefully he wont want to leave houston or commit suicide (as MadMax would probably do) after being a guest on the monsters of the midday.
They just replayed this. His agent told him on draft day that a team (wasn't sure if they said Rockets) was trying to get him with a higher pick but the teams couldn't swing the deal. All along, he was hoping Rockets would trade up or his stock would fall ( ) so that he would land in Houston. After working out for the Rockets, this was the place he wanted to be. He will bring great energy and athleticism to the team. Rockets told him to improve on his defense and work hard. He will backup Shane. Playing in Syracuse had prepared him for the NBA because of all the big man he had to face within the conference.
