    It seems everybody is impressed by Courtney Lee. I can't wait to watch his games.

    I really like the questions JF asks, simple questions that don't elicit the standard cliched answers.

    It was interesting to read Battier's take on offensive and defensive schemes.

    I am very happy that we traded Rudy Gay for Shane Battier. Battier has really stepped up, and he is probably my favorite Rocket this season.

    WTH? I'm a Battier fan too, but this season? How could you have a favorite Rocket this season, when it hasn't even started yet?

    Shane is a great player to have on our team.

    And I agree these interview questions are good and to the point.

    Shane was just gushing about Lee. Can't wait to see him play.

    I have a feeling Battier wanted to say more about Vick...

    Shane Battier sounds like he's gonna be a GM one day.

    Shane Battier will team up with Daryl Morey to write a book: The Moreyball Way to Battier Thinking.

    Did you not read the interview??? Lee is a part time PG, VERY part time. He's not replacing either pg.

    Great interview there. Would love to see any footage when Chase gave his opinion about Shane not being able to get off the ground :grin:

    This is already a much better team than it was the last 2-3 seasons. ;)
