    Was Carlos Rogers great or what. As said before, he reminds of Chucky Brown with some height and skills. He hustles and seems to be at the right place at the right time. I hope he doesn't get injured (knock on wood). He also seems to really enjoys just playing and contributing.

    The rockets are looking great. As long as they can keep the intensity, I predict we will either have the 3 or 4 spot going into the playoffs.

    3 or 4 ? Are you nuts? Rockets are going to go 1 the whole year, I see us at least winning 69 games. [​IMG]

    Can't argue with 69 wins. Hell, i'm a real rockets fan, how about 69 + 15 playoff games.

    The mild injury (to MO) is a blessing, since Carlos is getting the minutes to show he belongs in the rotation somehow. His rebounding, and hustle is what impressed me. He also seemed to hold his own against the "elite" forwards of Portland!

    This is great! I love this thread, and the ones like it. Obviously we do a lot joking and make it unrealistic, but it's so fun to see all the spirit. I'm on the bandwagon too- going to be one fun season!

    How about starting a slogan: We believe? Maybe put that on the intro page in place of 100% Quitten free?

    I just realized why we drafted collier and langhi. It is so we can hack the hell out of Shaq and not give a d*mn if they foul out. Rudy is a genius. Now LA can't even stop us either.

    Hey, I want on the bandwagon too!
    Save a seat for me on the rockets kicking some butt this season too.

    This is the first and last time I will make this comparison, but these rockets remind me of another young team I used to cheer for - the Edmonton Oilers. They were young, had great chemistry, speed and talent.

    Some very good things happened to that team - and I'm looking for the same with the rockets!

    I say if we beat San Antonio on Saturday it will show how truly great the Rockets can be. We will go 82-0!!! And then 15-0 in the playoffs. The only blemish being the one stinky loss to the freakin Mavs in the preseason. Oh and did I mention that the entire Rockets team will make the All star team, and the All NBA teams. Now thats a freakin bandwagon [​IMG]

    ok..ill get on this bandwagon..but only if we take jason collier, put him in his own little red wagon, tie him to the back of our wagon, and then just drag him around. i dont want him inside with the rest of us. he is fat, he'll eat all of our food, and he probably smells bad. go rest of rockets!
