    Yeah…this W only a small step forward, ppl gonna say this win mean nothing.
    Cant deny…we are aiming at the championship, this win is far away leading us to a champion. as long as teams learned and got used to MDA small ball, there gonna be bumping road ahead.

    But, these guys (most critics) b/m gotta eat DA crow! This is our night.
    Give MDA some credit, incl i, myself who used to be a MDA hater

    You can't have sometimey-ass opinons. But most of them do. Watch them all change their opinions so quick they get whiplash.

    "Oh I knew all along the Rockets would be good". Don't give us that BS.

    Edit: of course, we here on the forums knew from the start :cool:

    Look at Bill Simmons twitter. He went on a little anti-rockets hissy fit early in the game. Bashing our style. After he condemned the Capela trade earlier.

    I saw some obese bald guy on ESPN earlier today who called the Rockets an unwatchable travesty and proclaimed that all Rockets games should be removed from National TV.

    That game was fun as hell to watch.

    Seriously god this wins feels so damn good as a Rockets fan. EVERYONE WAS TALKING MESS, even our own fans, way more than usual.

    I dont think I've ever been this salty as a fan for everyone just literally counting us out. The only people I heard supporting the trade and understanding it were the No Dunks crew, Nate Duncan and BBallBreakdown.

    All over Facebook, instagram, friends, media everyone was fast as hell to criticize. Had the Lakers murdering us.

    Well F*** ALL OF YOU HATERS. IF YOU DON'T LIKE US, BLOW US.

    You're either with us or against us and I bleed ROCKETS RED. Trust the system. Trust harden and the brodie.

    Why did Dwight only play 4 minutes? If Dwight and Mcgee can't stay on the court Lakers might be lookin kinda tired down the stretch in a long series

    Where's the guy who made a list of all the RoCo doubters from the trade thread? Your time is now. Centers are dead, this is the future! Screw the haters especially those who hate on their own team.

    Dwight and Javale's effectiveness was gone. microball was turning them over and pulling them outside the paint. They will be fine against more traditional teams.

    That's exactly the point of our 5 out offense. Non mobile bigs get played off the floor cause either the corner three or driving lane is open.

    Because neither McGee nor Javale have the speed to cover the spacing of the Rockets on offense.

    Davis is the only one that can provide the cover but even he cant cover both Harden and RB if he is on one of those two players.
