    the Rockets were on ESPN, ABC, or TNT?? Seriously, I cannot remember the last time my team was on national TV. You would think playing the Clippers tonight would earn a national TV game but apparently not. I am sure someone (probably Clutch) can tell us the last time the Rockets were on national TV for a regular season game.

    We were supposed to have one against the Timberwolves, but the lockout changed that. Last year we had one against Orlando.

    It's funny though how the Warriors and Jazz have had more than a few now.

    Although I do realize that is because their games are usually the end of a double-header and a result of neither LA teams playing at the time.

    Repped. I see that we have several games on NBA TV but that of course doesn't count.

    Gotta have an All Star, especially if he's capable of incredible dunks.

    OR, gotta have a rookie that people wanna watch. Even Sacramento has some national TV this year, probably based off Fredette, who hasn't done jack this year.

    we played against Utah Jazz in April 2010, and that game was on ESPN.
    the rockets crushed the jazz that game.

    I guess the casual NBA fan wouldn't want to watch the Rockets. Just like I wouldn't care to watch the Pacers or Hawks.

    I don't think I remember watching a Pacers game post Miller.

    As Charles Barkley said regarding Paul George and the Pacers.. "we don't show the Pacers on TV because they don't have cable in Indiana."

    And fans wonder why all-stars aren't all dying to come here to play.
