    The Rockets winning the 'ship does nothing for me, in terms of finances.

    Winning $3000, even after taxes, is $3000 I didn't have before.

    I'd pick the money over the 'ship, but it isn't because I'm not a fan.

    Pssh, $3000? Come on now.
    The real question is, what is the price for everyone in this thread? I'd have to say as a realist I'd take the cash and run above about $20k.

    If it was more than like 10 grand I would say lottery but I would give 3K for a awesome playoff run with the team we have now.

    Sorry Rockets but my family can always use the money. I'll still cherish 94/95 'ships on my way to the bank.

    Really? I guess you're living paycheque to paycheque. Hell I would go $3000 into debt for the Rockets to win a championship.
