    In case you were unsure of the Rockets' marketing plan this season, here's the commercial for the new TV station covering the Rockets and Astros (owned by both teams as well) -- Comcast SportsNet Houston.

    Also, Lin hates celery, for those wondering.

    Haha the voice made that even more funny than it already is, though there's probably a lot better ways to convince people to get the channel.

    I like how they show his Asian sounding middle name. I couldn't remember if they showed the middle name for Altuve in his commercial, or not (the only other one I've seen)

    Hi all, Im from Shanghai China...here goes my contribution to Clutchfans:)

    Shu --- means Books
    How --- means A heroic person

    In the past the middle one might indicate the position/generation of a person in his/her family tree, so brothers/sisters or cousins of the same generation may share the same middle name, where the middle name might not necessarily refer to its original meaning

    I like the commercial. I think it's a fun way to promote the station and also clever way to make people curious enough to want to watch so they can learn a lot more about the players.

    Thanks for the contribution. I find a lot of Asian names have some kind of interesting meaning to them.

    Man they better step up the Rockets/Texans programming. All foxposrts shows were all the same. Same show, different team.....for every market.
