    I'm just curious if anyone out there is still watching. I have completely given up at this point and have really stopped caring, and I have been loyal Rockets fan since the mid 90's, and on this board since 2000. I just can't do it anymore.

    Anytime I tune in the Rockets go from up 5 or only down by something manageable to completely out of the game.

    Last night, I tuned in right before the 4th quarter. Boom, 22-0 run to lose.

    I will continue to watch to bring bad juju to the Rockets so we can get a top-4 pick.

    Y’all can thank me when we get Cade.

    I still follow them; they're my team. But I don't watch. When I can, I listen.

    Yeah, I watch as many games as possible. So far I've watched 95% of the games.... Just because we aren't winning does not mean I cant enjoy watching my team play. Imagine starting something and quitting because things aren't going the way you want them to. I get its frustrating but its a good season to learn patience. If you just tune in to watch a team win that's pretty boring in my opinion, there are other things to look for that gives you enjoyment. Player development is one, I don't really watch for the wins or losses but to watch Wood, KPJ and Tate growing every game.

    Some people around here want it all, they want Cade so they promote tanking but they don't want to just tank they want to just barely tank at the end to better our chances of a good draft pick. They want automatic KPJ and Wood growth without the growing pains. They want success while failing so that we can draft high but aren't willing to accept the reality of what rebuilding is.

    This is not going to end this year, or next. It might, if we somehow find the talent but its not likely. My approach is, enjoy what you can from these games. Because when we get back to winning we will know exactly where we came from. And that will make winning even more enjoyable.

    Or just quit watching and bandwagon when we at the top again...

    I am living life under circumstances but I keep score.

    I did not identify myself with Tilman and that did not begin just today.

    The team is owed one or 2 seasons of a rebuild. It happened overnight. I've listened to the last 23 games and watched the KPJ ones.

    I’ve had a hard time really caring much about nba since the foster/silver devastation of 2018, actually haven’t watched a single minute of any nba game all season. Probably will watch some playoffs

    I tune in for every game until they start losing. Then I stop paying attention or change the channel.

    I took the team off series record, that's for sure.

    I have Wood, Tate, and KPJ on my fantasy team so I've been glued to the games more than usual.

    My League Pass did not automatically renew this year for some reason. But I never got around to getting it, and won’t this year. I just check the highlights of wood, Tate, porter, etc. if it’s on tv here I’ll try to watch though
