    What a game. I had great seats - about four rows behind Morey.

    During halftime, I saw Calvin and asked him how he was doing. He said great and I told him that we miss him.

    After the game I was able to catch Morey. Said great game and tough loss. Asked him if he was getting any offers for Yao and he said none at the moment. Then I wished him the best of luck.

    Unfortunately I didn't get any pictures of us together like I did with Jeffries at the galleria lol. Do have some pics of the game though.

    Great game - tough loss.

    You'd really think Morey would tell a complete stranger if he got any offers for Yao? lol

    No but who cares? Doesn't hurt to ask and wish him and the rockets well.

    First pic you can sort of see Morey in between the two people right in front of me.

    Second pic is Chalmers shooting free throws.

    Third pic is when Wade was shooting his flagrant foul shot.

    Crap! Didn't realize it'd be so big. Can someone delete it and I'll re-up smaller sized pictures? Sorry for the trouble.

    For what it's worth, I really don't miss Calvin at all.

    Fortunately for me, I was able to catch a picture with Morey after the game.

    Told him to get Melo, and he said "I am going to try." Could just be saying that to be nice (to a fan) of course as he definitely was, as he thanked us for coming out to the game.

    That's an awesome picture. Morey is so busy that he can't even put the phone down to take photos with fans. Haha.

    I was sitting in the upper level, but was using binoculars to catch Morey's reactions to the on court action.

    He gets so animated, and not just for a GM. He's constantly fist pumping, jumping out of his seat, and burying his head in his hands. It's highly entertaining.

    ^^^ haha... sounds like me, I am totally animated too! Sometimes over-aggressive, asking for the ref's head on a silver platter but hey, its all about being a Houston fan! :grin:

    Gotta love Daryl's daring choices when it comes to ties and shirts. He really pushes the envelope. Seriously, does he own a non-red tie or white shirt?

    Would have been epic had he said "I'm on the phone with Denver and we just got him."
