    if clutchfans was around back then could you imagine the meltdown people would have had on here after game 2? I would imagine atleast the following topics would open
    POLL - Rudy T should be fired
    picking Hakeem over Jordan was a mistake
    Should we have traded Hakeem to the nets?
    Can rockets win with Hakeem?
    time to start over and blow up the roster

    That’s not the case because Dream came from U of H
    And the majority of Rockets fans were from Houston
    He had an inherit fanbase
    Houston was very loyal to its teams
    The city loved their own
    It’s not this pandering to everyone crap

    Like the Raptors fans winning the title and their joy, except our celebrity rappers weren't so obnoxious.

    Got goosebumps watching that Game 3 vs Phoenix.

    Vernon and Sam turned it on another level. I love the ending when Hakeem slams that in for no reason, just to say STFU.

    The trash talk Vernon / Elie were doing to those scrubs was amazing.

    Kennard Winchester, David Wood, and Mr Mean on the court in the Cavs game.

    Back in the day, a bunch of us met David Wood, and he was surprised that we knew who he was

    That's how Rockets fans were back in the day!

    Excellent reasons why Yao should have never been given Vernon's number.

    Look at what the POS Danny Ainge did to Mario Elie at the end of game 3:


    Elie sticks it to the Suns the next year:


    More karmic justice from Rockets legend Robert Horry:
