    That's what you believe in

    The current generation believes media recognition > championships

    Clickbate , he thows this out here so if you disagree with him , HOF, its the nature of the site, so if you argue with him he will sick his boys on you, and youll eventually be hated here at clutchfans, and your bball opinion wont mean squat and even if your (Tmac only fan) dont matter cause your a newb. I dont know about ole tinman sometimes but atleast he likes to get his ole cane and body up to forum floor to express his thoughts about it.

    Maybe find intrest in another sport tinman? to me thats like having a disease if you ask me. I dont care how much you like Hakeem. I dont care how new my account is. Or if its ban worthy.

    Every player on the Championship Rockets could play today. The only exceptions are Chucky Brown and Chilcutt.

    Horry would be perfect right now - 6'10" shooter who dribbles and defends every position.

    He’s got to earn his spot as the King
    Same with Harden
    No championship
    No King

    I think the point of the op is to highlight the thread creating of late is getting a little exaggerated.

    The content of this thread is not as much about "wild statements" as a debate of 90's vs today.

    Debates are great and all, but lets not lose the point of the thread

    Championship criteria is same as media bias
    injuries often decides the winner
    who you matchup vs decides a winner
    refs often decides the winner
    league office decides the winner(eg if adam silver doesnt create harden rule then harden averages 40pts a game)

    thus only the eye test of the true bb expert decides the winner( although i admit it can be subjective but still is the only thing)

    I think there is some truth in what you say, but a lot of the young ones like us oldies, want to see our Houston Rockets win another NBA Championship. Quite a few of them wish that they had witnessed Clutch City.

    No '18 Championship = '94 and '95 better

    The real question is, "what obvious fortune will help the '18 team ?"

    94-95 had 1) Seattle beaten by someone else and 2) little-to-no Jordan.

    90's teams could've still won without either of those, but both situations CLEARLY and OBVIOUSLY were fortunate.

    Part of enjoying the season is tolerating the exuberance and hype of your fellow fans.
