PRLog -- Run the floor, rebound, and dunk! Those were the simple instructions from a Houston coaching staff to their newly acquired star. On Sunday night, GM Daryl Morey and the rest of the Rockets organization got their first true look at 6'10 Thomas Robinson, and the 21-year-old rookie did not disappoint. With two games and a handful of practices under his belt, Robinson finally found his step, scoring 10 points and grabbing eight boards in just over 17 minutes of game action, in a 136-103 blow-out over the visiting Mavericks. Highlight of the night for Robinson was in the first quarter, as the athletic forward sprinted the length of the floor catching a pass from James Harden in stride for the monster dunk. Hopefully a taste of more to come, Rockets fans have to be impressed with the production and quick transition of one of the NBA's most promising young talents. Robinson will get his next chance to shine, Wednesday night in Dallas. More to come!!!
