After reading all these posts about how we don't get respect from ESPN, TNT, and ex-players I have a feeling we are being emotional about not getting attention. If we win the championship, it's a championship for HOUSTON to celebrate, not the guys from TNT, ESPN, or ex players. So why are yall so concerned about getting respect from everyone else? If you don't like those sports analysts not giving us respect then you don't have to read their stuff or listen to what they say. Stop crying for attention.
lol c'mon dude... what do you expect? We're probably like the most biased Houston Rockets fans out there!
Honestly though, I'd rather be doubted by everyone and still win, as oppose to being touted by all the analysts only to end up falling short in the end. **cough** 06-07 MAVS **cough** Also, this pretty much gives the Rox motivation to play even harder. It's time to silence the critics.
I actually rather have the media give us no respect. It makes the wins that much better and the championship will be even sweeter. Keep hatin' folks, keep on hatin'. More fuel to the fire for us.
This is the same type of thing that happened to us during our two championship seasons. No love or respect from the media and it seemed to galvanize our team because they wanted to prove the doubters wrong. As far as the whiners on the GARM welcome to the "NEW" BBS. Over the past few years all the new additions have turned this place into a real nanny state of cry babies. Some people will always find something to complain about I guess... 22 in a row when we beat the Lakers in a week!
I think the national media are like me, we are all in shock that the rockets are now 18 and counting. I mean, how are yall winning these games? You guys seem to be playing way way above your heads. I mean, on paper you have mcgrady and a 4 other role players. Here's your chance to convince me, how are yall doing this?
