    It's on ESPN News, but be aware they may cut away from it. They hardly ever show these things from start to finish.

    Stupid news only carried part of it:

    Les: We think Jeremy will be a fabulous addition to the team.

    J.Lin: **Excited to be here. Biggest thing that excites me is I know what this organization is about. I was in TC with McHale and I know how he operates and what he expects. It made sense.

    **(Past 12 months): An unbelievable ride. A lot of things I didn't expect to happen--the way last season went. I have to remind myself this is happening. A huge blessing from God. To be here right now is exciting and I'm thankful.

    **(Meeting with the Rockets): We had a great steak dinner. They showed me around. I knew most of everything. Just what they said. Mr Alexander and his willingness to win and the direction they want to head in. This is a young team with a lot of talent that we want to continue to build and get better. They had plans for me and to use me. They were very apologetic about letting me go. Biggest thing is I've been here and know what it's about.

    **(Talking to Yao): I texted back and forth. More-so congratulatory. When things settle down I'll end up talking to him about different things regarding the city of Houston.

    **I'm trying to take it one day at a time. A lot of stuff has come so fast. I want to make sure I'm consistent in what I believe in. That's the biggest thing for me, trying to glorify God and give my best effort.

    **I want to make sure that I play for God and I play hard. I can be ok with everything else. I had dinner with Chandler Parsons last night. We talked about the team and the guys coming in. Being on a team with guys committed, it doesn't matter about outside distractions. We're focused on getting better.

    **I wouldn't have signed an offer sheet if I wasn't excited about playing here. I'm thankful for NY. Now I'm excited and focused on what I can do to help this organization.

    Daryl: I sold him on the organization and cut off...

    Les Alexander was just asked about being content with rolling with the current team and all our rookies.

    Les' response: "It would be stupid to be content. "

    So much for not wanting Dwight anymore.

    ESPNNews and Local 12 both cut off the press conference early.
    Douchebags.

    Whoa, did you see Les Alexander get at that reporter asking Lin about the All-Star Game? Man, he's pissed.
