    Love the thread! Welcome to the club of ridiculous crazy fanatic love of our Rockets. Although, this reads like you've been loving them for a while. I can't wait to bump up this thread again in June!

    There comes a time when we hear a certain call
    When the world champs must come together as 12
    There are people stealing
    and it's time to lend a hand to mchale
    There greatest gift of alllllllllllllll

    We can't go on pretending day by day
    That someone, somewhere will soon make a change
    We are all a part of Les' great big family
    And the truth, you know,
    Love and winning is all we need

    [Chorus:]
    We are the Rockets, we are the fans
    We are the ones who make a Toyota Center
    So let's start cheering
    There's a choice we're living
    We're saving our Houston Rockets
    it's true we'll make a better shot
    Just you and me

    Send them your heart so they'll know that someone cares
    And their rebounds will be stronger and for three!
    As Maury has shown us by turning cash to Bud
    So we all must lend a clapping hand

    [Chorus:]
    We are the Rockets, we are the fans
    We are the ones who make a Toyota Center
    So let's start cheering
    There's a choice we're living
    We're saving our Houston Rockets
    it's true we'll make a better shot
    Just you and me

    When you're down and out of the playoffs, there seems no hope at all
    But if you just believe in Clutch City there's no way we can fall
    Let us realize that a change can only come
    When we stand together as one

    [Chorus:]
    We are the Rockets, we are the fans
    We are the ones who make a Toyota Center
    So let's start cheering
    There's a choice we're living
    We're saving our Houston Rockets
    it's true we'll make a better shot
    Just you and me

    Unreadable also I hate punctuation one time in high school my chemistry teacher said I was going to amount to much and she hoped I would be comfortable on the streets I saw her at the movies with an old lady maybe her mom and I was taking organic chemistry in college at that time and pre med I wanted to say something but I thought better of it because I was worried that once we started talking we would never stop because I hate her more than I hate punctuation and it would result in a never ending circle of he worst conversation ever going on into infinity Houston rockets 2012 champs take that ms Grimm you b****

    repped.

    i wanted to say the same thing, 'cept i actually wanted to list the better teams. your method is easier/better.

    i can see us luckily go to the second round, but we'd most likely get owned after that.

    What are the chances that we'll win all of our remaining regular season games? I'm guessing we'd be 4th seed if we did that. We could win it all from the 4th seed. We did it from the 6th seed, why not the 4th. Then we'd play the Clippers in the first round and obviously we'd beat them because Blake Griffin plays like a woman when he's not jumping over people. Plus, Luis hates being jumped over, he prefers creating posters:

    ie: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=05Jm6oKi54w

    Then in the second round we'd probably play the Tim Duncans. They peaked way too soon this year so that's an easy sweep or maybe a 4-1 series. 5-1 if we went 6 games.

    (This is his, whoo, they're good!, face)

    Round three, or for those of us that were loving the Rockets in pre 1995, we called that the Western Conference Championship, we play the Lakers. Phil Jackson will be back on the bench because he likes taking the reigns when he sees a championship contender. Anyway, Bynum will not get ejected once, but he'll get stuffed 6 times a game by our monsters known as Samby and Camby and they bring little to no namby pamby to the court. We'll beat them in seven games, but Koby will sit game 7 because he will punch Metta World Peace on the court during game 6 and MWP will go Ron Artest on him. We win that game by 40. Side note: Luis, who is featured below, will average 36 ppg and 12 rebounds and 1 dunkpg during this series and make us all thankful we never traded him.

    Anywhoo, yay, finals bound.

    But what ev because we born unto the love of the Rockets in 94 and 95 know that being the Knicks and losing after 7 or being Shaq and losing in 4 sucks. So bring on the Heattles. Pat Riley will go all Yoko and let Spolestra coach, but try to run things behind the scenes. There will be no evidence for Riley doing this, but Spolestra will, mysteriously, be killed like Lennon after this series, which will go 6 games for those who are wondering. We will win 4-2 (do the math, it works) and Dragic will be the MVP. LeBron will go Kanye on us and try to take say Bosh is the real MVP of the series even though the award did not go to Bosh or anyone on his boy band team. Spolestra will clap for the wrong team thru-out this series. Odd coach.

    Lennon thinks we should sign Gogi and try to repeat:

    I hope so. Would be nice to have a david and goliath story in the playoff. Too many road blocks for this to happen though. You have OKC, LA, SPURS, BULLS, HEAT, ref, and stern to bulldozer through.

    The 6th seeded team, facing the Jazz, down 2-0 to the Suns, the MVP and the Spurs, the younger more vibrant upcoming Magic with the game's most fierce center Shaq and the team that beat Michael's Bulls. Houston is home of overcoming obstacles. Plus, if you need to know more about how it will go down, I have written a short piece on how it will shake out above.

    Big up yourself. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

    If that is a rimshot, that is the worst typing out of one that I have ever seen. If not, then carry on

    A lot of this thread (apart from the insanity that is DG) makes me wonder how many of you were actually watching the Rockets while they were winning their second straight ring.

    We had just traded for Drexler, Olajuwon was out for serious stretches, the team was in disarray, and when we limped into the playoffs as a 6th-seed, EVERY TEAM WE WOULD FACE WAS A 50+ WIN TEAM.

    And we immediately got knocked down, stomped on to within an inch of elimination, and then that beautiful beautiful magic started to happen.

    Of any fans in the NBA, Rockets fans should know better than anyone that once you get into the playoffs, anything can happen.
