why are the rockets always the background photo? everywhere I look, sportingnews, nba, espn... whenever someone wants to focus on a particular player, that player is always highlighted against the rockets. is it the white pinstripe jerseys that make a good backdrop? i rarely see players highlighted against rockets in the road jerseys. hmmm...
No other team looks good enough to be in the background. We should consider this as an honor and a priviledge! ------------------ Sometimes you gotta do the next best thing!
That might be the best summation of the Rocks' season to date. We are just good enough to legitimize someone else's highlight but still bad enough to be dunked on regularly. ------------------ "That's two years, Two rings, and I'm thinkin' about going for another one...YEAH!!" --S. Cassel
Maybe it's cause opposition players tend to have career games against us. ------------------ www.JEFFforGOVERNOR.com
i noticed this as well. they were even a background for a ad for tim grover(pippen's trainer. it showed pippen blowing right past Drexler.
how can you sell the NBA without the Rockets in the picture? (*monotonous chant*)The world revolves around the Rockets. ------------------ There are 3 kinds of lies: lies, lies, and heypeeisms. -DrofDunkingDonuts [This message has been edited by CriscoKidd (edited November 16, 2000).]
Maybe becasue we play pi$$ poor defense (it has been better last couple of games though). When you are being defended by Walt, Mobley, Stevie or Mo many hi-lites are possible!
I think its just regional photos by sporting news. If you bought a mag in LA mags are gonna show pictures of lakers same if you were in boston , its all about regional advertising ------------------ www.truebballfansite.homestead.com
