All of the Rockets, except Tracy McGrady (surprise), showed up at Toyota Center on Tuesday to talk with the media before they take off on their summer break.

All of the players were interviewed in the locker room, except for Yao, who answered questions in the press room.

Yao said that he’ll personally be taking the summer off, the first time that’s happened in 11 or 12 years.  He also said that the biggest off-season priority for the Rockets is to sign Ron Artest, who he likes both on and off the court.  Click here for a summary of what Yao said during the interview.
