    Boogie cant defend shet.

    He can barely log back in time to set up in the paint on defense before the opposing team has taken a shot.

    Silas is having to yell less about picking up the pace.

    Rockets now 4th in pace.

    Good start.

    Lmao yes but I think a lot is over heated during that time.

    Cousins was obviously frustrated with minutes, him not able to make his 3 pters and his game having little impact back then, Covid rules because he went to a private barber...........

    Harden's drama was the 'cherry' on top of it all.

    I think what I like the most about this team is that they'll be hoisting that O'Brien trophy baby. Looking forward to the parade on Richmond.

    We must always remember our brothers overseas. They are with us in spirit. However, each of them has personally assured me they will be flying in for the parade as well.

    Yeah, wasn't sure you were close.

    I know them well too.

    Excellent. Their attendance is all but guaranteed. I'm on Discord with them, therefore I've practically known them since grade school. ;). @Yung-T @Jontro

    Aside from the Lakers who are usually gifted them, having a legit shot at a title is an extremely hard thing to accomplish. 2 to 4 teams tops, and a lot of years the champion is mostly a foregone conclusion. Particularly this day and age where the champion is mostly decided on the whims of star players deciding who gets to compete for one.

    There's a lot of discussion about which of the narrow paths to a potential title is best, all I know is that I'm enjoying watching Rockets games right now, even though this team is highly unlikely to actually be in the title picture. This league has put such an absurd value on winning a title, that people act as though anything besides a title isn't worth doing.

    Sports are inherently meaningless in reality, they are merely a source of entertainment.

    Whether or not Boogie can cover a baby with a blanket is irrelevant .... He can hack the **** outa him when he comes thru the paint for the way he disrespected the team on the way out the door.

    Well, I mean a title is the ultimate goal though. We had some great seasons with CP3 and Harden, but ultimately I felt incomplete as a fan without a title. I know a lot of good to great teams haven't won a title, but it's still disappointing to have a 26 year drought. That being said, I'm enjoying the ride immensely with this team. It's so refreshing to see team ball again.

    This is definitely true, me and jontro will arrive to the US&A on boat and then be flown to the parade via Xerobull's helicopter.

    Jontro has already planned out a tour on his most iconic fapping spots all around town.

    Maybe you can string along Elon Musky and his space ship.

    While you are at it, you'd have to give a shout out to @hakeem94, @pippendagimp as well.

    They are ex pats or living somewhere else but definitely huge fans.
