    I hope and pray that our players will not lose this golden opportunity to get ready for the upcoming NBA season.

    The season just seems so short - I'm actually wondering...why do basketball players get so many months off? Why not play more months in the year?

    Can't wait until the season finally starts!

    Hey! This ain't baseball! ;-)-

    Seriously, I'd be OK with a season a bit longer, as long as the number of game didn't increase. So why would I support adding a bit to the season? Get rid of the freakin' back-to-backs.

    I thought they were not going to offer those this season. Guess season tickets are not going as quickly as they has hoped :eek:.

    its the marketing gimmick trying to get you to buy tickets by saying they aren't going to sell mini packages....

    they got to sell those Kings, Celtics, Magic games somehow

    you want to see a "sold out" premium game like the Heat, Spurs, Nets? You gotta buy a package of Kings, Celtics, Magic, Mavs in order to get those tickets....

    :rolleyes:

    Yeah, definitely a marketing ploy.They go on sale to the general public on Saturday at 2. If you have purchased a plan or season tickets in the past, call your rep to make an advance purchase. Here's a list of the plans if anyone is interested... I chose the Harden 13 plan because I thought it had the most top-quality games.

    I don't think I've been this excited ever. During the championships years, I was only 4-5 years old and couldn't comprehend entirely what went on in the world. I was excited during the T-Mac & Yao years but not THIS excited.

    This is the most anticipated Rockets season in recent memory, for me at least.

    I don't think they have. They have already been quite active this offseason. Harden and Bev at one point were like connected at the hip.

    The 30th of THIS MONTH!

    Preseason games usually start like a week and a half afterwards and you get about 2 games a week. So we are almost there... Just sit tight.

    sorry, if KC PLAYOFFS be putting up the Rockets games again? Will he include the preaseason? He was a saviour last year and as long as he is around I will never even think about switching to comcast.
