    I still wear my scars on my face as well. Darryl Talley damn near raped Givens and caused the overtime interception. Even after the comeback if that gets called as it should we still win the game.

    That team won the Superbowl and had a several year run of dominance and the Oilers are still Houston’s team in an alternative Houstonverse.

    I never rooted for Jason Terry, most of the time I thought he was sabotaging us. How can you hit 40%+ from 3 vs and 20% while with?

    Had Derek Fisher suited up, I woulda rooted for him to brick everything and get booed off the court.

    Had Matt Barnes, Draymond, Karl Malone or anyone else who is a PoS human on top of a jerk on the court came over to us, couldn’t root.

    Dylan was great, had to root for him, also think he gets a bad rep, super good guy, lame to lose him.

    Must like the players, winning a chip would save me liking the team, but not the players on it, would never support.

    List of players they brought in that I hated.

    1. Russell Westbrook. I hated every second of him being on the team. He never won me over. I hated him so much that I was basically relieved when they blew up the team.
    2. Charles Barkley. I hated him on those Suns teams. He won me over quickly as a Rocket though.
    3. Kevin Durant. I've hated him since he jumped ship from the Thunder to the Warriors in one of the most b**** made moves in NBA history. It hasn't helped that he's formed two super teams since and they've both flopped in spectacular fashion. Jury is still out.
    4. Chris Paul. I thought he was one of the biggest whiners in the NBA. He is. He still won me over quickly as a Rocket.

    On the flip side, I had nothing against Scottie Pippen when he joined the team but learned to hate him very quickly.
