    I've never noticed any Rockets players giving props or acknowledgment to arguably the greatest sports forum on the web, in press conferences or one-the-court interviews. Just curious if I've missed something. I'm sure the players frequent our site..it would be nice to see some gratitude! Again, maybe I haven't played close enough attention, but I'd like to hear thoughts on why it's not done more often. This is my first thread so don't be too rough on me :grin: thanks!

    Listen to Clutch's podcast in the beginning you can hear Trevor Ariza (I believe) shout out Clutchfans.

    If you look at Clutch's signature you can see a Metta World Peace quote about Clutch Fans.

    Terrence Williams and Ron Artest are the first 2 that come to mind.

    Other players, when asked on Twitter, acknowledge the boards and sometimes say they browse the site.

    Every time a player acknowledges cf they either are traded or sign with another team shortly after.

    I'd like to see more high profilers give the site some love. It certainly wouldn't hurt Lin's reputation...and no this shouldn't turn into another Lin thread.

    Ariza, as mentioned earlier. But that was a short marriage

    Isn't Shane Battier's moniker "Carl Herrara"?

    There's a reason for that. It's because the players could care less about what we think or talk about.
