Recap for us "in towners" at work. Earlier this morning, I think Granato was on without Lance, and if so, it probably was a worthless interview.
I caught the last 10 minutes or so and it was a bunch of BS joking around, no real questions about what's wrong and what's being done to improve. * Jon B kidded about his limited PT, saying he should have retired after his game 1 brilliant performance. He said he would have retired with a 24 PPG average * Talked about how well Mike James is doing and yes they miss his skill for creating his own shot because now they don't have anyone who can create their own shot. He reiterated that Rafer is not the problem and Mike James is putting up numbers on a team that is 1-9. Said MJ is a great guy and was only traded b/c the org felt they needed a pass first PG. * E-mailer told him that if anyone gives him grief about the Rox bad record, he can say at least we're not the Texans. They laughed and started discussing some NFL stuff (bad teams in the NFL). * He kidded that Yao would be the "star" of the video review session today because of his fouls and bad shooting last night. He would be on the spot in the team meeting, I guess Jon B had talked about how he was that "star" in a past show. Jon B seems like a cool dude. I love the type of character that our team has, which is why it was awesome to see them jell as they did last season. I just hope T-Mac can come back and STAY healthy for the long term and rebuild the chemistry of last year.
