It's been a crazy 10 years of Houston Rockets basketball fellow Clutchfans!! Here's some of my favorite memories of the soon to be last decade...
here you go OP . . . you're safe https://www.cnn.com/2019/12/21/us/when-does-the-decade-end-begin-trnd/index.html We talk about decades differently Those technicalities, however, don't change the fact that as a society, we seem to have collectively determined that decades begin in years ending in zero and end on years ending in nine. After all, it makes sense. When we think of the 90s, we think of the period from 1990-1999. It just doesn't make sense that the year 1990 would be considered part of the 80s. Plus, it's more satisfying to celebrate big occasions like the start of a new decade in an even-numbered year, a phenomenon that psychologists call "round number bias." Waiting until 2021 to celebrate the new decade would feel anticlimactic. That's why Konstantin Bikos, lead editor of TimeandDate.com, says that both definitions of when the new decade begins are correct. No need to cancel your end-of-the-decade party. "There's two different ways of categorizing 10 years," he told CNN. "It could be from the year ending in 0 to the year ending in 9, or the year ending in 1 to the year ending in 0." It comes down to how we talk about time spans. Bikos agrees that centuries and millennia always start with years ending in 1. Those time spans are typically referred to as numbered entities counted up from the year 1 AD, as in the "21st century" or the "third millennium." Decades are categorized by year numbers. Even though the 2020s will be the 203rd decade, no one ever calls it that. It's just called the 2020s, or the 20s.
Man this picture makes me sad. Thats a championship squad. Not even an exaggeration. If not for one hammy at the last minute of game 5 they are revered in the same air as the 90s championship teams and all of their legacies change. Moreys legacy changes. Dantonis. Even the Warriors. Same with the 09 team. So much of what NBA fans take as truth can change with the whim of a tendon.
The decade I fell in love with basketball. Some of my favorite faces of the decade on top of the ones already posted.
Forever grateful for some of the legends who contributed to the Rockets' second decade of the 21st century.
Hell .. . a healthy Luc One or the other gets us over the top IMO but Losing both was killer Rocket River
