    #1 After the "42 years of tradition" video I LOVE the fact they rock the NBA on NBC music during the one minute countdown to tip!!!

    #2 Coming out to Biggie Hypnotize beat was badass!!!

    OK, how to get folks in their seats early?

    1/2 price drinks (including soda/water for the lil ones) till tip, I would go in early if they could compete with bars

    somebody told me some numbnut shot the finger on the jumbotron, is this true?

    was told it was Rock and Roll Part 2 (The Hey Song) by Gary Glitter.

    Yes he did, he did it on the kiss cam, Either that wasn't his chick or he is a grumpy mother*******. Even if it wasn't don't think he should have done it.

    I wonder if he could have been kicked out for that? :confused: Can he?

    possibly remember the announcer was saying all the rules to reiterate good behavior at the toyota center like no throwing and running to the court and some other stuff i think he said it during a timeout after the guy gave the finger. that would have been funny if they did it with 2 guys on the cam but disturbing as well im sure they only do that at lakers games haha

    i couldnt believe ppl were getting up and leaving with like a minute and half left in the game and we were only up like 3....i guess beating the traffic early is more important to them then the outcome of the game.

    the dude who flipped off the camera was so cool...too cool for the kiss cam and too cool go have fun at the game i bet...

    A minute and a half? Make that 5 and a half minutes, right after the under 6 timeout. Up 15, 20 points, I might understand leaving early (but not on opening night) but a game that's going back and forth like it was? Who the hell are these people and why do they even show up to the game if they don't care to watch the final minutes of a close game?

    Yeah, I realize it's their prerogative to leave when they want, but it's also my prerogative to give them sh** for it.

    wow, I didn't realize ppl were leaving that early...the problem with Houston is there are many corporations and large businesses here. Of course these companies want to entertain their clients by taking them to games, but these typically are not die hard fans...

    I wanted to leave that early too. Regardless of the outcome, the game was ridiculously ugly, and the Rockets had already failed their goal, not of winning, but of getting their offense on track. Those Rockets out there probably couldn't have put up 100 on an empty court.
