    If Yao Ming with a broken foot, the most jersey selling in China and popular with the fans can't win in 2009 over the Lakers.

    Rigged Spurs over Suns DAntoni Nash, Amare. Lakers over Kings

    The Good Pistons over Lakers, Ben Wallace, Rasheed, Tayshaun, Billups, vs Shaq, Kobe, Payton, Malone

    There’s nothing we can do. 90% of the national sports media grew up, trained, or cut their teeth in the industry in the northeast somewhere. Their ideology dominates.

    In thirty years, maybe some clutchfans can grow up, go into sports journalism, and try to correct that bias, but until then the likes of Fox, ESPN, and Bill Simmons will continue to hire Tim Cowlishaw, Marc Stein, and Shea Serrano and claim that they have a fair and balanced take on Houston sports.

    Offer to work for free as a Ringer intern. Start a podcast comparing all NBA teams to pro wrestlers, explain that Houston is the Iron Sheik of the NBA because everyone loves to **** on us. It’s basically a victimless crime.

    Probably not hard. Just have Rockets official twitter account criticize him on something on his twitter page. Should work.

    My comment is actually neither supportive or against him. I recognize what is going on around me. The media are unfair towards him and he is petty enough to respond to random posts on twitter. Its the perfect storm.

    If it indeed turns into a WWE Entertainment format, there is not much you can do.

    Bombard them with 3s.
