    I feel good that the Rockets didn't lose by more than 25 points without Porter and Sterling Brown
    vs probably the number 1 seed in the West. Losing by 23 is not so bad.

    NFL legendary coach Chuck Noll took over an abysmal Pittsburg Steelers team. Entered the locker
    room and said, look closely around the room at your teammates. Many of you won't be here
    next season.

    Thus began the era of the, "Steel Curtain."

    May the Rockets have much the same success, soon.

    Thirteen games left. Celebrate at the end of the season by making a cake.

    Sigh.

    People still think they're tanking, and not just an embarrassment of a team and franchise.

    We know that. Tanking just sounds better. It can't mask our huge deficiencies, I admit.
