was on NBA gametime...they were giving the Rockets love all night...One of the best interviews Ive heard in a while..Enjoy Kamla: How'd it feel to hit that dagger shot over AI? AB: IT was a big shot for me coach called a great play Cheryl Miller: This was a team coming into the season with no Tmac, Yao...noone had written you guys off but noone expected yall to play this good...Talk about the resilency of this team.. AB: Were fighters, we play for each other, no one guy bigger than the group and we play bball the way its supposed to be played we share the ball at any given time it could be any players time to shine...(gives love to CBud and Lowry) Steve Smith: Talk about you guys second unit..How good is this second unit? AB: Any of those guys could be starters, coach put in a great system, we got great pieces to the system. Kyle Lowry could be a starting PG in anybodies system. They came in and did a great job, brought as back and gave us a shot to win the game. Kamla: Was there a little something extra for Kyle Lowry in this game hes a philly guy..going against AI..Just talk about his mood before and during this game.. AB: MANN the beginning of the game he was down because we came out and stunk it up..He came in a played great had a bunch of pts in the 2nd qtr and brought us within 3..At the end of the game he told us thank you..Its good when you have those kind of weapons on the bench Cheryl: OK im going to stir this up a lil bit...(AB: laughing NO your not lol)...but seriously not one player is bigger than the team..TMac is obvisouly gone be back soon, do yo think it will effect this team chemistry or are yall even thinking about that right now? AB: Na were not thinking about it..we have a good rythm going and were just going keep playing like that and were waiting on his return.. Smitty: AB when you look at CBUD and what hes doing and not alot of people looking at him with the rookies..tell us what he brings to the table as a rookie? AB: Hes a guy that can run hes extremely athletic and can shoot the heck out the ball..I think the Rockets do a good job of finding talent in the 2nd round with Kyle Lowry uuuuuuuuuhhhh uhh I meant Carl Landry and CBUD they did a great job of finding some steals in the draft. Kamla: AB I did the same thing earlier tonight I said Carl Lowry AB: (Laughing) yeah we always be doing that Haha Kamla: There both studs off the bench what can you say...ay nice job answering the Tmac question by Cheryl Miller..very diplomatic AB: STINKY (laughing calling Cheryl Miller stinky) na Tmac cant do nothing but help us we waiting on him Kamla: Thank you..You are officialy the feel good story of the year doing what your doing with out Yao and Tmac..Its an unbelieveable story..keep it up and we'll talk to you soon. AB: Thank you I appreciate it

Good to finally see we getting some love for all the success we've been having despite having $45 million dollars on the bench in street clothes. At least we know, NBA TV does not care about merely appealing to the Lebrons, Kobes, Celtics of the world.
haha "Coach called the perfect play to throw it off one of the other team players hand and then I get a shot" haha AB is a funny guy.
Lol at "coach called a great play." That last play was broken and it was pure luck that AB ended up with the ball and nailed the J. Kudos to the OP for the transcript.
