    Apologies as I posted a new thread for this video. Here's what I wrote:

    Has anyone watched NBA.com's draft reviews in their video section? Some of the reviews are very good and informative with many of the teams, however the Rockets review wasn't one of them.

    The video was meant to be a draft review, however the analysts didn't talk about who the Rockets drafted for more than 4 seconds. While I completely understand that the Rockets acquired very late picks, history has proven that Darryl Morey turns late picks into gems.

    Fair enough, I'm sure the analysts knew nothing about Jermaine Taylor or the other tw pics, but they could have at least talked about Morey's knack for finding diamonds in the rough. They shoudl have at least used Brooks, Landry, and possibly even Head as examples of this and at least analyse Taylors offensive play in the NCAA.

    Once again, the media discounts the Rockets.

    Now, what they spoke about instead was still interesting however, but nothing new that we didn't knwo regarding what the Rockets will do with McGrady, Yao's health and the resigning of Artest.

    He did it with one line.

    "Good luck making the team".

    They should have used Luthor Head, drafted in 2005, as an example of Morey (who came to the Rockets in 2006 and was working for the Celtics during the 2005 draft) finding diamonds in the rough?

    Well, I'm sure they have a time limit with every team's draft review. I found it interesting how they were more interested in the Rockets other situations over the draft prospects. They talked about Yao, Tmac and Ron which are important issues for the Rockets community.

    the fact that we are so interested in our own 2nd rounders speaks of how offensively deprived this team has been.
