    Taylor says Dorsey's impressed him the most so far... I don't know whether to be happy or scared.

    LOL but he tried to say everyone, which means he thinks he's better than them all! ;)

    Yeah, I got the same feeling that he thought he was better than all the other guards/sf. So he chose someone who was as far away from him as possible, our beloved Dorsey.

    Are the summer leagues being broadcasted?

    I like what Coach Turner said at the end of the interview:

    As long as you produce on the basketball court!

    [Rockets.com] Ariza Video Interview

    LINK

    It's Fritz so I won't post the whole article, but you have to click on it anyways to see the video. Lots of good stuff including the first direct quotes from Morey on Ariza:

    I also caught the back end of a SportsRadio610 interview from the post-news conference which I can link on this thread, although Rich Lord makes me want to shove my boot up my radio's cassette port.

    Cautious optimism is usually best, especially with this team.

    Did anybody catch Jason Friedman say there is nobody at the 2 spot, and Jermaine has a chance to start?

    I thought Battier would start at SG and Ariza at Sf.

    Did Friedman slip a hint that Battier is being traded?

    Just want to clear things up so there's no potential confusion: My question toward Jermaine was simply in reference to the fact that the Rockets don't have a great deal of depth at the 2 right now, which could present an opportunity for Taylor to receive plenty of playing time - assuming the roster stays as currently constituted (a GIANT assumption given the fact it's still only July 8th.)

    That's all. No hints or innuendos, I swear.
