Thanks for the heads up. I'll record it and post in on youtube. I'll also watch Ch.2 incase they have anything.
Forgive me if I don't have it all but he covered pretty much everything we saw. The interview was after the press conference when he got his jersey etc. Talked about how its unreal to him bout moving, selling his house and saying goodbye, but that its part of the business. Real excited about coming to Houston. Talks about how's he's an "offensive lineman". When he's doing his job, no one knows it, but when he's not doing his job, people will know and criticize. As always with the humble remarks how he's playing with "super duper stars". His role is to specifically make them better and hit those open 3s. He'll also help Tmac on the tougher defensive matchups to allow him to score 50+. Julio, please upp when you get the chance.
Sucks when your a sportscaster and u have to end your show with "Thanks, Stargate-Atlantis is coming up next."
That's what he says now... Behind the scenes, Battier is probably asking TMac if Tracy is gonna help him become an All Star this year.
Granted we don't know everything, but I get the feeling that Battier is being geniune. IMO, he's a perfect role player for a championship team. Do we have the other role player pieces that we need to be a championship team? That remains to be seen...
thanks...I went ahead and recorded both in case...but was hoping you could get them...Im short on time to edit and encode. Its nice that there is someone else to help take the video load this year. I need to get in touch with you after I get back from vacation(heading out early Tues for a week) to set you a torrent upload account on my tracker(its a private tracker) in case you want to distribute anything that way. You may wonder why torrent over youtube...but releasing large files is easier using torrents imo.
Exactly! When I posed the question, "Back in 1993, would you have traded Mario Elie for Danny Manning?" A lot of people would probably have said, "Heck yeah!" Instant offense. Mario brought way, way more to the table than what you saw on the stat sheet. I feel that Battier will be similar.
Here it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WkZ_mHZ7BJ0 <object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/WkZ_mHZ7BJ0"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/WkZ_mHZ7BJ0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350"></embed></object> weak interview imo.
He says all the right things. I really hope for his sake, the Rockets, and the fans that he will be able to deliver on his promises. I'm glad we have him just wish we could have got him through different means.
