    Few years back, I saw Rashard and his family taking a trip to Orlando. He was such a nice dude and quite humble. I asked him if he would like to play in Houston...He smiled and said, they had 3 chances to get me...that being said, if the price and time is right, I'd love to be in Houston.

    if you a real rockets fan, u should never want a texas team to win titles.


    thats like me wanting the cowboys to win a sb, or the rangers winning a ws, or UT, SMU, RICE or A&M, BAYLOR, Texas tech winning a bcs title.

    They are in our damn division for sakes.

    I will never cheer for any other team. Only my Rockets. However, I will cheer on individual players. I don't care for the heat or anyone on that team except for Lebron. I would like to see Lebron win another ring because I believe he is a great player and because all the Kobe dick riders will cringe.

    It's okay to do it in your head though, nobody knows? Or the internet. Unless you parade around in your own town wearing those jerseys of other teams in our division going to your local bars, then that would be a problem now would it?

    I can't stand those flopping bastards in SA. I respect what they have accomplished, but I hate cheaters.

    Are you saying that Bron, Wade, and Bosh don't flop as bad?

    It's fine with me for anyone to hate either team. But to say that if you did this or that you wouldn't be a Rockets fan is just absurd.

    Wade's flops changed the game. Took Manu out at a critical point.

    Sure I root for the Spurs. Why not? We don't have a rivalry with them, they play great team basketball, and they aren't aholes. I don't mind the heat but rather somebody else win. Now if it was the Mavs then I just wouldn't watch. I love the Rockets but when they are out I root for Spurs or Grizzlies. Or teams that have ex rockets players. Yes both teams that I like are in the division but unless they are playing the Rockets I like them. Feel the same way with the Texans and Cowboys.

    When did this hate of the Spurs start? That is exactly the organization that we are trying to mimic.

    I understand Dallas hate but I will still root for them if the Rockets are out and they are the only Texas team left.

    My dad who hasnt really watched basketball in a very long time said this... "This Spurs team is moving the ball so fast and perfectly...This is great basketball and I dont think they have missed..." (at the end of the first quarter)

    You don't get the bigger picture do you?

    Younger teams cannot get out of the second or WC finals when old arse teams such as the Spurs or sometimes Mavericks are not stopping giving youth potions to their stars.

    Year after year it is a travesty. Youth movement has always been key in Europe or pretty much everywhere else.

    They should have retired Duncan or Ginobili teach their system to other teams. It is time
