As you can imagine, everyone who's anyone is here in Chicago taking along look at the majority of the players who are projected to be chosenin the 2009 NBA Draft. At one point on Wednesday night we caught upwith Houston Rockets GM Daryl Morey, and asked him who he liked so farin the process.
"We like that Griffin kid," Morey said, nearly pulling off a straight face.
Wewere joking with Morey, saying that everyone knows the Rockets willmake an unconventional pick, but that the pick will somehow work outfor the team.
"Well, I'd like to have a top pick," he joked,"but they never get me a high pick. We always have to pick from playerswho are broken in some way. Aaron (Brooks) was (supposedly) too small,Carl (Landry) (supposedly) had bad knees . . ."
All kiddingaside, Morey is confident his team will be able to acquire a firstround pick, so expect the Rockets to be busy . . .as usual . . .ondraft night.
在HOOPSWORLD专栏作家英格拉姆和莫雷畅谈时，莫雷表示：“我喜欢格里芬这孩子”，他一本正经的脸上开始显露笑容。
很明显，莫雷说了一个冷笑话，因为火箭今年连一个选秀权都没有。
莫雷继续说，“当然，我们也想要个高顺位的，但是其他球队不会给。我们只好去选那些有缺陷的球员，布鲁克斯被认为太矮，兰德里被认为膝盖有伤。
在开过玩笑后，莫雷爆了下料，告诉我们火箭很有信心得到一个首轮选秀权。
PS：在HC的新闻系统分享失败，虽然时效性不足了，还是可以YY下的。 |
