    tinman, you're stupid. Everyone knows that Hakeem wasn't even as good as David Robinson, much less Shaq.

    You're dumb!

    That oughta get him going

    you can how easy it is to weed out FAKE FANS and UNEDUCATED FANS on this board. How nice basketball shoes, mcdonald's commercials, hanes commercials can cause a weak minded ROOKIE to be brainwashed into thinking that the team called "THE ROCKETS" that ROOKIE so called supports was the team that beat the other team with the guy who's got the best marketing on earth BADLY!

    the marketing turns someone who calls himself a ROCKETS FAN to betray his team and think hey its OK! I don't know ANY FACTS, but its OK TO BE A BULLS FAN even though they HURT OUR BEST PLAYER back in the day.

    its OK NOT TO READ UP ON ROCKETS HISTORY of what REALLY HAPPENED ON THE COURT cause a former player has GIANT BILLBOARDS of his likeness.

    They put up a statue of this DREAM guy at Toyota Center. If you don't believe that was the best player in your heart and in your mind, then please donate your Rockets gear to the RED CROSS or GOODWILL cause they'll actually be the only good you'll do. Don't go cheer for the Rockets, you are not a fan.

    I signed up so I could vote for Hakeem :D Love the new highlight video. The block on Malone is very funny! Just like the KJ block. Hakeem giveth and taketh away. :D

    I like MJ and Kareem; and those are the only two players I'd pick over Hakeem. The reason is that their primes lasted longer. I think with better luck and management, Hakeem would have won 4+ rings.

    he's being sarcastic.

    however, if you notice besides Jerry36 (Fake Fan), fans who join recently 2007-now are the ones are most likely to believe that the Rockets Championships came because of Michael Jordan being absent (which is not true) and also believe that Jordan's teams beat the Rockets teams in every encounter (not true either)

    its our duty as Rocket fans not to let our history be spit on like that. Rudy T said in the Clutch City 1 video "I walk around town and seeing people wearing Chicago Bulls jerseys, PEOPLE IN HOUSTON SHOULD LOVE THE HOUSTON ROCKETS"

    Its ok to wear Jordan gear. but its not ok to wear Rockets gear if you don't know the TRUTH.

    its like if you are a Laker fan,
    you put on that Laker Jersey. that means you like Kobe, but that also means you represent Kareem, Magic, Jerry West etc. you RESPECT those guys even if they were before your time cause they are the reason your team is what it is.


    Same with the Rockets. it may say YAO or TMAC on the back, but the ROCKETS part represents a great history of people, Moses, Calvin, Rudy, Ralph, Max, Dream etc. You defend all those guys as much as you defend Yao cause that's why it says ROCKETS on it!

    That's dumb. Vernon Maxwell was such a headcase and an overrated defender. I'm embarassed he was ever on my team. He did not represent Houston well. Mad Max indeed.

    screw the Jazz.
    Maxwell is FOREVER and he brought us a championship.

    FCK U and our moral authority sht, you ain't JESUS, or ALLAH or BRAHMA or DALAI LAMA

    REAL people got problems

    But heroes win championships, I don't give a rats azz about Max's personal life, I don't care about Yao or Tmac or Slick Rick's personal life. Yao and Tmac could be banging thousands of thai teenagers for all i care!

    you suckers hate Max cause you are FAKE FANS.
    you never saw him play. look you didn't even join til 2006. fake fan!

    Obviously you didn't like it when Maxwell brought us back 0-2 from phoenix, or hit all those legendary game winners or capped game 7 for the first championship ever.

    why not find out about everyone's personal life? Coaches, players.

    if you want that moral authority bs crap, especially about Maxwell, throw it in the D&D.

    I did. I'm not a Jazz fan and I could care less about anyone else's personal life.
    Malone, Maxwell, Yao, or even yours.

    I care so much about the players on the Rockets that I do delve into their personal lives too much. I don't like the Rockets, I love the Rockets. So when I see these guys getting into trouble it hurts man........Eddie Griffin's death was one of the worst days of my life. Maybe you don't care about that stuff, but I do......

    are you there every night in prison watching him? making sure he reads his koran or bible?
    are you there making sure Rudy T isn't drinking?

    hey what about the new players? are you making sure Aaron Brooks isn't going to stripclubs?

    hey forget the Rockets, what about your friends?
    do you hate them if they stray the wrong way and do drugs?
    what if they cheat on their spouses?

    where does it end knote32? it doesn't. its easy to hate. and do you REALLY KNOW VERNON?

    did you know that when he was in prison in houston, it was for 1 gram of weed? did you know his lawyer said it was racial profiling? remember that?

    have you been racial profiled before?

    how many books have you read about Maxwell? i've read one on him. where he talks about the Rockets, his personal life, his mistakes.

    is he bad? if he was free and you saw him?
    1. would he kill you?
    2. would you kill him?

    how deep is your hate?

    you obviously know my posts on this board. you think i'll ever stop defending maxwell?

    Umm, No
    Whats wrong with stripclubs?
    I would try to help them out, but if they repeatedly kept effing up for like 2 decades I would be done with them......

    Being black myself, I think so......
    1, I would say "Hey thats Vernon Maxwell!"
    2, Then I would walk by.........
    That is a quality question.......
