    Great tweet.

    This is a season where I can watch every minute of every game without struggle. They are so entertaining, they play well together, they are winning at a high clip and you feel like something special is happening.

    We are blessed fellas (and ladies). Enjoy it. Don't stress about trades, or the Warriors, or whatever.

    ENJOY IT.

    You are watching two of the greatest players in our generation tearing it up together. We are watching one of, if not THE greatest offensive seasons in history by a player. We are watching the MVP AND the Point Gawd.

    ENJOY IT.

    This is the best start in franchise history and CP3 has missed 18 games, and Harden has missed 7. Amazing.

    Yep for once I actually feel at rest when watching them. No matter the circumstances I always feel our team can power through it and if they don't it's usually close

    We are so ungrateful sometimes.

    Also, Championship or bust. :D

    Nice. But it's how you finish that counts.

    Spurs were just ho-humming their way to 40-12 last year (record in same amount of games), and 50-13 (height of wins at same amount of losses).

    Is that ungrateful of me to say?

    Not sure who's taking it for granted.

    Paul and Harden are both having perhaps their most efficient seasons.

    Setting the franchise record for wins - preferably 60 - would be awesome, but main thing is a healthy playoffs.

    We have legit championship aspirations this season. First time in a long time

    A bit premature to call it the greatest Rockets team ever assembled.

    I'm just happy that we seem to have gotten over our mini-slump and back to our hot form earlier this season when we were leading the league.

    Hopefully the guys get refreshed during all star break, and keep building on the platform we've built.

    And keep the pressure on GS until they crack.

    This team with CP3, Harden, and Capela playing together is the best we've ever been. The only thing left to prove is to keep rolling in the playoffs.

    I also think this is Harden's year to shine in the postseason. CP3 is going to keep everyone dialed in mentally and Harden won't feel so much of a burden pulling roll players to series wins.

    I'm loving every minute this year. I don't care what Steve kerr, ESPN, TNT, Charles Barkley, etc have to say either.

    Yeah but, we'd be undefeated if we had DMo

    I actually TURNED THE ROCKETS OFF on Saturday after the second period because it seemed like watching a snuff film or something.

    Fluke run & last season was one of the weakest the League's ever been. The Playoffs was proof of that.

    Murray doesn’t know what the hell he’s doing. MDA needs to learn how to coach.

    ....and a few of our losses were flukes.

    Best start in franchise history? Yes.

    "Greatest Rockets team ever assembled"? Um...

    Exactly. Let's see if it's even up for debate at the end of June.
