    speaking of Calvin Murphy...

    I hope he gets better. He sounded so bad last night.

    I would sound bad too if I had to comment on the game.

    wow, never knew his second wife died. :(

    don't really remember much from those years, mainly since I only recently started to watch the rockets play a few years back.

    damn good commentator

    hard to say if he'd make a good coach, knows the game well enough all with his rocket camp that he hosts year round

    but it's easier to sit behind a booth and make the calls but not as easy as being out there on the actual court

    Murphy really deserves a tribute. He was one of the best high school players of all time and a great Rocket.
    The bobblehead looks nice. I'm happy for him.

    They gave out Murphy Bobble heads last year at the compaq center. I have one and it has a spear set of suites in it. He even stayed an hour and half or so after the game to autograph them for the fans. He's a stand up dude, very very nice. I have one autographed for sale still in its original packaging if anyone is interested. Peace.
