    3 more days for all the armchair GM's & coaches to pronounce the fate or destiny of the team, coaches, and every single player who does or doesn't get playing time all in one swoop (preseason game).

    Havent been allowed in yet? is that different from last year? Do you feel the rockets organization are in a way keeping their "cards close to them" controlling the message a little more now that they have dwight? it must be a battle to manage expecations, and scrimmage videos can lead to all sorts of speculation.

    There have been 4 training camp days. On two of those days, they had two-a-days, which means they scrimmage at night (and not the morning). Media availability is only the morning. The other two times it was just not relayed from the coaches to the media soon enough. The first time we got in just after the scrimmage. Today they let us in for the final play of scrimmage (and Dwight wasn't playing).

    It should have happened sooner but it hasn't happened yet. No, I don't think it's intentional at all. I just don't think it's a high priority to coaches.

    Hmmm... Only three more days before the 1st exhibition game, then they're off to Asia. Hopefully they'll let you in soon otherwise there'll be nothing till mid-month.

    There's a secret weapon on our team this season. Who is it?

    Best not let it out until season actually starts.

    I knew it! All the Asik drama was a total bluff and smokescreen.
