    This is very much recency bias, since we beat them last year in the playoffs.

    I remember watching one of their broadcasts a few years ago when the Rockets were playing them and they took a poll of which Texas team they considered to be their arch-rival and all the basketball teams were an option along with the phallus cowdungs for some reason and the cowdungs won by a large margin, with the Rockets coming in last place. It felt like a slap in the face. I thought to myself, theyve beaten us so many times, they dont even feel like we were a rival. It made me hate them even more. So, Im glad we got to beat the brakes off them last year to instill a hatred towards us again.

    I think it was explained that every Texan team hates each other thus dividing the hate to 3 teams.

    Every other fair weather dude hates teh Lakers.

    I was really caught off guard that Cali and Hawaii hate the Worriers so much.

    Wow. Always thought the hatred was one-sided because how the Rockets lost to the Stockton/Malone days as well as the Deron Williams/Boozer days.

    Nice to know they hate us too.

    This is creepy, as I just finished a Rockets-Jazz debate with some coworkers here in Salt Lake City. It's inevitable everywhere that I work, and I don't seek it out.

    Agreed, I live here in Salt Lake and the hate on the Rockets is pretty big. Especially on Harden and CP3. I go to quite a few games as a basketball fan, but when the Rockets come I show up in my Harden jersey and it seems like the fans around me are louder and the trash talking gets more intense towards the players.

    I check out blazersedge.com sometimes. I can say confidently that the Rockets are public enemy #1 there as well.

    They hate us after the 2014 playoff series against Harden/Howard & celebrate that Lillard game winning shot like it's the championship lol. Ever since then all they do is whine against Hardens style of play.

    I don’t know which series win was more satisfying for me, the Mavericks or the jazz but I enjoyed those series victory much more than clippers or thunder series victory’s...

    The Jazz are not good enough to deserve my hate.
