    Glad to hear it is nothing serious. At times like this, I realize how much fun calvin brings to the games. I always look forward to seeing what the hell he is going to wear.. and say. I miss you murph. Hope you are back soon.

    Yeah I was about to post on how good a job Reed Gettyes (spelling?) is doing. He really knows basketball and you can tell he seems prepared etc. Very good job done by Reed. Wish I had an email or something address so I could tell him that we appreciated the job he did tongiht

    It's all explained in the Chronicle:

    Gettys to rescue

    Rockets television announcer Calvin Murphy was forced to miss Tuesday's game and to skip the trip Tuesday evening for tonight's game in Minnesota with an ear infection. Former University of Houston guard and assistant coach Reid Gettys filled in on Tuesday.

    "This is a thrill for me," Gettys said. "I feel like I won a contest. My parents had season tickets to the Rockets since they moved to Houston. We used to go to every game in Hofheinz Pavilion. I was a pocket Rocket with Cliff Meely and Rudy White and Otto Moore."

    With Gettys unavailable tonight to broadcast the Texas A&M-Oklahoma State game, former Rockets forward Jim Peterson was enlisted to fill in.
