    Short interview with Fool's Gold on the team's winning streak, his POTW performance, the trades and the team's playoff prospects.

    Nothing surprising but good to hear the guys in the locker room are not quitting just because Daryl "Rachel Phelps" Morey got rid of some of the talent. Martin also said the young guys auditioning for minutes could be good for the team.

    He also said a leader like Shane Battier is like a superstar in that there are only 5 or 6 of them in the league. Interesting now that the Rockets are likely fighting Battier for that last playoff spot. Maybe both teams can make it but that will likely take some choking from the teams in the 5-7 spots.

    That shows you how highly Battier is valued as a leader in the league. Great interview.

    Thanks for sharing. I liked how he addressed the pro-tankers. Mr. Pyrite is a likable guy.

    Toward the end when Kevin said, "I came here to play with Yao, and, well, that didn't happen", I teared a little. Yao and Kevin Martin would have been lethal.

    I was thinking more like U.S. Ambassador to Lisbon or something.
