my thoughts exactly. I liked how he "emphasized" the key points in the script. I would have liked some more jazz hands though.
Mr. Battier is already working his ambassador skills on the Houston crowd. Impressive. This guy will probably be the most interviewed man in town short of David Carr and Roger Clemens.
Lol, so the Rockets did realize that the 1000 emails they got on draft night and following expressed the fans' malcontent with the trade. Shane has to prove himself and everyone knows it. Looks like a good position for the Rockets to be in, and I think he will come through.
As much as I think the trade was completely lop-sided in favor of Memphis, at least the Rox got a player with a will to do whatever it takes to win. Hmmm.... maybe I'm reaching here...just trying to find anything to take the sting off this trade that will one day haunt the Rockets for years to come. But, yeah, everything I've seen of Battier and read about him, he does seem a class act.
