    Good for Bill to only do home games. Well deserved and been a long time coming.

    We should retire a ceremonial jersey for Bill Worrell like we did for CD.

    Bill didn't retire yet so it would be awkward

    Makes me kind of sad because I wanted to take 82 games to savor our last days with Bill Worrell, but I'm sure Bill himself is probably thrilled.

    I'm going to miss the disgruntled Bill games on the road on a back to back in Utah. The nostalgia also of him being the voice of the Rockets that I've known since I was a wee little one will be hard to say goodbye to. But the Rockets need to turn a corner and really modernize their game analysis & coverage. Excited to see where Craig and co. can take the broadcast.

    I like Craig, but is Bull going to keep making jokes in the form of a question?

    Good for Bill, glad we'll still get to hear him at home.

    Seems like a good solution. And if Bill was truly "being pushed out by the organization", would they really still let him do home games? :confused: This seems like it's in his best interest as well, perhaps?

    I sure am going to miss Worrell flat out calling the Rockets' players abysmal play throughout the season.

    It was one of the highlights last season.
