    Battier just said Morey didn't call him until a few hours later after the trade.

    Does this mean Daryl has no heart?

    The trade was probably in a hurry. At least Daryl called.

    Almost didn't believe it when I heard it, but he was very sure of himself as he said it.

    Meh.

    Yeah I heard that lol, must have been the trade fogging up his mind. Conviently forgot all about Yao and Ron who took us home in that series.

    Don't be naive. Battier knows he would never have gotten into the 2nd round of the playoffs without Yao and Ron. He only cares about himself. He is a bitter man. No need for him to come back to Houston.

    As a veteran Morey owed it to him to let him know.

    I wonder how those phone calls go. It must be awkward as hell.

    it's a business. that's why people shouldn't judge players if they do the same to a franchise.

    but if that's the case, it's cold b/c battier has been a good citizen for us

    they need to make it "official" first.

    battier just found out earlier than expected.

    25 games of Battier for a 1st rounder and 7'3" project? I'm fine with it. Though I agree that Morey should have called a lot sooner.
