    Correct me if I am wrong but last year didn't ESPN televise some summer league games? I am pretty sure they did, one of which was a Rockets game.

    Anyone know if they are doing it again this year?

    Any ideas of which current Rockets will be on the summer league team?

    I thought that ESPN televised the Rocky Mountain review which starts next month( I think). The LA summer leagues I do not believe was televised.

    They've televised games from the RMR and the league that runs up in the northeast - the name escapes me. But anyway, they haven't televised the games from LA for the past couple of years at least.

    The RMR starts the latter half of this month.
    The Dada Summer Pro League in Long Beach starts on the 7th.

    ESPN did cover some summer league games but damn if you couldn't get them to stop talking long enough to show the game... out of about 30 minutes of game footage 27 minutes of it was talking and interviews from players on the bench.. it was really PATHETIC!

    Ah, now I remember! I remember watching the Rockets summer league game last year and they had all of these stupid interviews, They would even SHOW the interview while the game was going on and you would miss the game action! :mad: I remember that. That was horrible! Still, ANY game action on TV is better than none! :D

    The worst part was that the interviews were with Rusty LaRue. Who the **** gives a **** about Rusty LaRue?
