You gotta bleed red and silver not matter what. Have stay till the end no matter what been a Rockets fan since 79 can't stop now.
Stupid noob if you don't like it then leave and support the celtics or the lakers also northeastfan we lost our 1st rd pick for Artest but i'm not sure if it's lottery protected.
My answer based upon the last two games is NO but as a long time rocket's fan (26yrs) I will make up my own mind and continue to suffer the embarrassment and I hope all true Fans will also endure our team.
You are definitely a "fair-weather" fan. So, lets tank now to get a good draft year next year!! (Im obviously kidding )
At the moment, the Houston Rockets are clearly the most boring team to watch in the entire NBA. Loyalty aside, this team right now is the slowest, most unathletic, and uninteresting team in the entire league. I don't care how big a fan you are, if you watch any other games you know what I am talking about. A few games ago, this wasn't true. When you make the Knicks and the 76's look like the classic Celtics and the Showtime Lakers, you know you are running in mud. Answer to your question, at the moment, NO.
They were way more exciting with Wafer in the line up and TSlack in street clothes. Those 5 or 6 games were the most exciting of the year for Rockets fans.
Yeah if you want to laugh. But yes this team is worth watching for me. I love watching them win or lose. I have only been to 1 Rockets game in my life and that is when they played the Hawks. I was on crutches but I went to Atlanta from South Carolina to watch them play. Caught the Marta(subway) to Phillips Arena to watch the Rockets even with Yao and T-mac out that game. They lost but I still had a lot of fun.
"Are they worth watching anymore?" Give me a break and find an other team! I've heard Utah is still looking for some new fans, just like you ...
I am not a fair weather fan having watched the rockets since 1984, but this team is not enteraining and is in fact frustrating to watch. Even through the lean years or when Francis and Mobley were here but not making the playoffs, the team was exciting. The team has enough talent to make the playoffs, and maybe win one series, but I do not see they advancing any further because the team has fatal flaws and this is not the kind of coach that works with these players. Yoa can be neutralized by a double team and he played average at best tonight. If the 3's are falling then the inside out game makes sense, but with the inconcsistent shooting of Battier and Rafer, the double team becomes a very effective way to take Yao out of the game. Yao will not become a better player under Adelman in my opinion. Tracy plays the Adelman offense on occasion, but the ball movement that was so good during the games that he and Artest were not playing is once again inconsistent. Tracy is still an above average player, but he can't take over a game like he did two or three years ago. Offensively, Artest does not have seem to have any rhythm with the rest of the team and I don't see where he is playing great defense either. So far this year the Rox have lost to Indiana twice. Philadelphia twice, the Clippers, the Knicks and Oklahoma City. They blew several fourth quarter leads including a 10 point lead against San Antonio. Now that they are two years removed from Van Gundy and Thibideaux (now with the Celtics), the defense is poor. At this stage, I would rather they give more playing time to Brooks, Scola, Landry and Van Wafer as they are young and play with passion. The team would still make it to the playoffs and would be better positioned to make a run in coming years. Thinking that McGrady can deliver a championship will just bring you frustration.
Dude get off the bandwagon. We don't have room for people who only support the team when we're winning. We'll try to make room later on in the season, but no promises.
If you're a fan of good basketball, probably not. As a Rockets fan I'll stick around and watch to see what happens.
I will still watch rocket games,but will just lower my expectiations to avoid further disappointment.
I will say this, the majority of fans can say they enjoy watching their teams play. I mean look at the Lakers or even the Nuggets. They bring a brand of basketball that is fun to watch and they so efficient at what they do. RA i thought was brought in to change that horrid game we had under JVG. We have tried all sorts of players to surround Tmac/Yao, but when really the problem has all along been Tmac/Yao.
