Not even close. I don't agree at all. When the Rockets sucked he said so. He's being paid for his honest opinion. He owes nothing to the Rockets. He would be selling out his integrity for nut hugging the Rockets. When Magic Johnson said the Lakers suck did they remove his name from the rafters ? I seriously hate how over sensitive Clutchfans is sometimes It's like we turned into Jeremy Lin fans when he jacks up an air ball we blame the city of Houston for it
Tinman, answer me this question. Do you think the Rockets have no chance to win the championship this year? Yes or no? Honest question, not here to start a pointless fight which will prove futile for both of us.
I go with Vegas odds It doesn't change who I root for According to Vegas last time I saw it was 15 to 1
Don't forget Clutchfans roasted TNT during the McGrady era for not saying we were not title contenders What happened
Kenny smith has been on TNT for how many years ? 15? If you want to challenge me that Kenny is representing clutch city , I have dozens of YouTube videos I can post proving I'm right
I also think it's the wrong time to diss on Kenny Smith when he mom died less than a week ago Kenny if you don't think we are going to win the title, no Rockets fan will feel you need to show blind homerism You had a great Rockets career and Les ain't paying you to work on TNT
I never asked you to say that, I just wanted your opinion on the current state of the Rockets. If you have nothing to say then that's fine, don't say anything.
The state of the Rockets? We're 2 games from the WCF and losing Nene really hurts us. I think we will win cause Aldridge is playing like crap. Stop the Kenny hate. I will always oppose anyone who hates on Kenny.
Kenny Smith is a Rockets legend and he knows where he comes from and is forever grateful to Hakeem for everything he has. The rings, recognition, seat on inside etc. Anybody that speaks/thinks that highly of Hakeem is also loyal to Houston cause you know... Hakeem is Houston. Skip to 1:20 He even got his jersey retired as a Rocket thanks to Hakeem
Last time I checked, I don't think he represented the Rockets 50th, or participate in Clutch City championship anniversary. He represents the 2 championship by saying it self-servingly. He probaly has a grievance against the Rockets now because he isn't their coach. I love his commentating, but loving Houston is another story.
Kenny Smith sucks on TNT. He's a pretentious bore who never says anything controversial probably because he knows he isn't a legend who can make those kinds of statements. There's a great video online where Gary Payton exposed him on the air for being a scrub and it was hilarious. I've heard that Kenny was fuming behind the scenes and worked to have GP removed from the show for good. When I heard about Pat's grandfather I knew immediately Kenny would tried to shoehorn his own personal **** in there. We KNOW about your mom, dude. She wasn't Barbara Jordan, okay? Most of us "regular people" have lost family too. You already milk those chips where Dream carried you, no need to milk this too. Barkley owns your ass on that show (even Shaq is better). Sorry if this comes off as harsh.
I just saw that "Gary Payton roasts Kenny" on youtube. Funny stuff. Kenny was the Rockets' starting point guard during those back to back championship years...that's a fact. Granted we can say "well any PG could have been plugged in there with Dream and get the rings" and that's probably a valid argument. But fact remains, it was Kenny as the PG when those rings happened so the exactly compilation of the respective rosters won those championships. Having said that, while I do get that Kenny is paid for his honest opinions, there is nothing wrong with showing loyalty through speech and actions and NEVER FORGETTING WHERE YOU CAME FROM. Personally, I think Kenny should show some favor towards Houston. Horry does...and even JVG does. Why shouldn't Kenny?
Perkins is from Beaumont. I watched him play when he was at Ozen High School. His nickname was "Baby Shaq" back then.
