Only one sentence in the post-game recap of nba.com: NEW ORLEANS, Feb. 22 (AP) Yao Ming had 28 points and 14 rebounds, and the Houston Rockets won their 11th straight game, 100-80 over the New Orleans Hornets on Friday night. What the *! Is this a conclusion or a recap?
Now if this were Cleveland doing this then we would be subjected to reports about how Lebron James has surpassed Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, Larry Bird and Bill Russell in greatness. I already heard ESPN talking about how poor Cleveland was only playing with 6 healthy players but that's okay they have Lebron James! Then one guy said he would like to see 5 on 1 Washington against James and he thought Lebron would win. What are these guys, 3 years old!?
it's ok...i'm glad that we are under the radar...it keeps our team focus because once everbody be talking about them then the rockets will think too high of themselves...if they only write one sentence about us let them write only one....at the end when all thing said and done...they will still write one sentence about us..it would be "THE HOUSTON ROCKETS' YAO MING AND TRACY McGRADY CAN FINALLY CALL THEMSELVES - CHAMPIONS!"
Bill Walton said at the half of the suns and celts that the "Rockets are for real and the Rockets are one of 6 teams that have a real shot at the NBA finals"
Hated? Is there a little too much paranoia on this board? Why is every perceived slight, whether real or imaginary, taken so much to heart? We're winning. Who cares what they write.
we're just playin hide and seek . . and when we want to get out of our hiding spot we will destroy! . . and the media will be in wtf mode and will be amazed!
i think TNT and NBA TV dont like us.. Carl Landry's previous dunks should be shown in dail top tens, but...
Landry was 7 in NBA Top 10 highlights in game against Miami (2/21). www.youtube.com/watch?v=rLDKSfp10KA
huh? The front page of nba.com features the rockets and their 11th game winning streak. The highlights videos section also shows Steve Novak's game winning shot against the Kings. In fact it's one of the most popular videos.
well there isnt much of a story to talk about here. rockets win 11th straight game by kicking the hornets ass, it was never close. the end.
I can tell some of you guys are new. We once WON THE NBA CHAMPIONSHIP and the result? They put NHL HOCKEY on the cover of SI.
