    I'm sure *someone* might be able to give alot more info. on this, but I don't think Big Kev is too happy in Houston. I was at the Tuesday game vs the Raptors and he didn't look happy at all. Timeouts were called, he walked away and wasn't even anywhere near the huddle. I'm sure players will do this every now and then but it was just strange seeing it from Kev. Then when Mobley got that T, Kev was looking at him disgusted and kept pointing to his head as in saying 'not smart at all'. I'm beginning to believe the whole lets trade Willis to a contender as a favor to him was a lie. To me it looks like Kev wants out, he's just not pulling a Langhi.

    any thoughts, info on this?

    Why would he be happy? He's spending his last years in the league riding the bench for a lottery team, playing behind Kelvin Cato and now Jason Collier.

    He has nobody that will listen to him or even relate to.

    Kevin Willis was supposed to help the Rockets with depth and experience for the playoffs. I say supposed to because look at how injuries decimated the season. I would hope KW could rub off on the younger guys on the team with his work ethic, but from what people are saying it looks like the young guys aren't taking well to Kevin, and he's not taking to them, which to me is a real shame.
