    Quick story about Clint Capela (especially for the beat writers.) Went to a Rockets' voluntary shootaround a few years ago. Asked Capela if I could bother him with a couple questions. He said "One, you never are bothering me. Two, don't ever ask again. The answer is always yes."

    A thoroughly exasperated Daryl Morey said Chris Paul and his reps have never asked to trade him and he will be on Rockets next season. Said he and Harden do not have issues with one another and that he has spoken to both often this off-season about free agency evaluations, plans.

    P.J. Tucker played Game 7 after three root canals. Didn't even tell teammates. Was unreal.

    Chris Paul was still so angry after the game, multiple individuals said, because a member of Rajon Rondo's family made "inappropriate" comments to Paul's wife, Jada, in the stands after the altercation.

    Well, I guess this is happening. Today is my last day at @HoustonChron. I'm hanging them up. Way too many people to thank to fit here or in today's column. So grateful for all these years covering the Rockets, for my mentors, peers and especially readers.

    Iman Shumpert said that when KD was hurt he worried that he might have gotten a foot under him. (He didn't.) Said he checked the replay three or four times and asked around to be sure.

    As much attention is paid to the Rockets' move to small ball, more should go to the guy they got in the deal. Robert Covington is 1st player with at least 21 steals and 12 block shots in first 8 games of a postseason since Ben Wallace in 2004, also making 51 % of his 3s.

    James Harden, who never, ever changes his pregame routine, out way early today. For years, he has been one of the last to shoot. Gordon joins him. Tucker last. Harden on the floor with the rookie, Jae'Sean Tate today.
