    The inferiority complex around here is tiring. The world does not revolve around hating the Rockets.

    I think Marc Stein is decent at his job, though he isn't an analyst. Doris Burke is awesome too.

    The truth is those analysts have no stock in Thomas Robinson. He hasn't done anything this year.

    Yeah I am not sure why anyone would get their sports news (or any news) from tv. So archaic having to sit through commercials and story lines or commentators you don't care about. Use the internet. IF you dont care about the Lakers, just don;t click the Lakers articles.

    I must admit, I was slightly annoyed when that one guy said the Lakers had the best trade deadline. I also found it strange that the ESPN writers almost unanimously said that the Kings had the worst trade deadline while only one or two said the Rockets had the best. It seems pretty logical to me that the team on the right side of the worst deal probably made the best deal.

    That said, we're just not quite a big deal yet. But the media is already paying more attention to us than they have since the Yao/T-Mac era. I saw a discussion today about whether or not Harden is a superstar. I read lots about Morey. I watched David Thorpe talk about the Rockets being in a great position to possibly sign Howard or Josh Smith.

    We're gaining momentum. We'll get there. I can't wait for next season already!

    He also HATES the City of Houston, and dedicated an article to tell the world about it.

    I don't look to ESPN for my Rockets news. Stephan can Kick rocks when it comes to my Rockets or pretty much anything else

    This. I don't even hear much about Indiana and they could be the 2 seed in the East this year.
