Rockets effectively made me not care about NBA in roughly 10 games

I haven't even played 2k in weeks.

I usually play multiple times a day, especially on Rockets game days. Team is a total boner kill, I need to watch some real NBA action on ESPN soon m

 

it's called being a fairweather fan

 

It's definitely hard to watch other teams that actually care for 48 minutes and look like they know what they're doing. Makes me very jealous.

 

adam silver is a terrible commishner.. the refs have gotten worse under him

 

I'm with the OP. I haven't watched or kept up with any basketball outside the dumpster fire that is the Rockets for weeks.

Or a big fan of the Rockets.

 

This team hasn't won a ring in 20 years, nobody here on clutchfans is a fairweather fan.

 

Much softer. But why are we talking about the refs? This team is so weak right now.

 

Certainly discouraging. I've found myself "score watching" on my phone this season a lot more than actually watching.

 

This is absolutely the worst I have ever felt about the Rockets in the 26 years I have been religiously following the team.

This team has imploded on epic proportions and this season is quickly becoming lost.

 

I will watch every game no matter what but the life is seeping out of me this season lol.

 

I'd actually call it being a true fan. I haven't missed a Rockets game and don't plan on it, but watching us like this has affirmatively killed my interest in NBA basketball overall. Normally a league pass junkie, but watching other teams is just a cruel reminder of how much we don't look like a professional basketball team right now.

 

This.

 

Same. I didn't even care to watch today's game. Just knew they'd lose. This is just stupid. Absolutely stupid.

 

yeah i didn't watch tonight because i just figured it would be another loss. checked the score, saw a blowout, moved on with my night.

before you go calling me names or saying im not a real fan, let me add that i've watched every minute of every game of the james harden era, and before that the yao ming era.

the only other time i stopped watching was our 3rd year of being #9. there was nothing to root for, they werent winning and they werent losing enough to get a good rookie. i stopped watching because it was obvious a change was needed, same today.

 

Why should I give two ****s if the players themselves don't give two ****s

I stopped watching basketball in general and avoid all NBA related things in general now.

**** this team, I would rather watch players like Lowry and Dragic actually act like they care about the game

 

Word.

 

Got home from work late and started the recording.

I accidentally fast forwarded exactly to halftime and the score was right there on the screen - all evened up. Since I already spoiled that much I didn't feel like watching the first half at that point. It was like jumping into a fresh game so I just started from Q3. It was awful basketball.

I didn't even watch the fourth quarter. I saw where the game was headed, so I skipped ahead to about 4 min left and didn't bother to watch the finish after seeing the score at that point.

I love this team so much, but I honestly don't care that I didn't catch the game tonight. I feel like I saved so much of my evening time. It's surprising for me to even read what I just typed considering my feelings for the rockets just one month ago.

Something needs to change because I'm finding this team extremely hard to follow this season. Like others have mentioned, the 3-yr streak of 14th pick was 4x as entertaining as this year. Get it together, Rockets. You're better than this.

 

When the players doing even try it really makes you feel like a fool for taking 3 hours out of your day to watch them play.

 

This is how I'm feeling. I's been a fan since being a kid when we one the championship, I was still a fan during the Steve Francis years as a teenager so you know I didn't mind losing. But this is just embarrassing. Like I said I never remember the Rockets being booed at home like that before.
