    To be fair though...

    I'll take those over having none but just moderate playoff success here and there if we going to talk about team history, I'd still rather be a Rocket fan over most teams in the NBA not named the Celtics, Lakers, or Bulls...

    I really don't get it. It's almost like you're happy the Rockets have failed so hard.

    Some people get more emotionally invested than others, if that bothers you then that's your problem not mine.

    What are you too embarrassed to say you're a Rockets fan? I mean unnecessary spiting of the Rockets. Yeah I want other teams to fail so the Rockets succeed. Lmfao.

    Who cares about Lin? I could care less about that guy. I care about the TEAM. Aren't you the one talking about how super teams are ruining the NBA yet if the Rockets assemble a super team they're guaranteed to suck. LOL.

    Player plays in a small market, fails at winning a ring. Player gets tired of being ridiculed by the media for failing. Player quits on his team in the playoffs and the following year conjures up a plan to join up with his superstar friends in a big market. Media anoints player GOAT



    This is why the NBA has become a joke

    You literally can't succeed in the NBA if others don't fail. :p
    I stand by my statement, the worse the rest of the league is, the better for the Rockets.

    I don't need to prove to anyone I am a fan, sorry to everyone when I say this but as it has been already discussed to death that had Jordan not retired, would we win?

    See that's something that will always take away from you're accomplishments. We won but it looks like, it was because the roads were easier....well same thing with lebron and crew.

    Only difference is we had no control over it (the dream didn't hold mj at gun point to retire), but lbj made everything with his own hands which is even more embarrassing.

    lol @ player averaging 27/9/7 2.2 steals and 1.3 blocks while holding his matchup to 13 ppg shooting 35% "quiting" on his team.

    I wonder how fans felt back then... You know, when the finals was pretty much a lock between Celtics and Lakers. Or the 90s, when it was Bulls and whatever unfortunate team. Or the 2000s, when it was the Lakers... and Celtics...

    I'm starting to see a trend here.

    I actually find myself less and less interested the older I get. Not only because the league is uncompetitive- but also because there's a whole lot more entertainment and things to do besides watch an NBA game.

    I'm with you. Same thing happened in the '80s. It was Lakers, Celtics and 76'ers every year. It was so repetitive and boring.

    :rolleyes:

    I think if you're looking for reasons to be mad, you'll find them. And this is one of those cases.

    You could just appreciate how good these teams are.
