    Rockets will win it; we win all the titles that count.

    they wont the Rockets are moving to the Orlando summer league which looks to be the same -- meaning fewer teams, closed gym (not open to public)

    That sucks. I had always thought they needed more exposure.

    Going to Vegas for the summer league was an incredible experience. I'm definitely going to miss it.

    I have no insight to this, but I'm just going to guess that because it's closed to the public, less of a distraction (Vegas nightlife), and they could probably focus more on players. Plus, no one will be able to throw a stuffed animal at Morey in Orlando.

    is it a coincidence that Chandler and Patrick shutdown the pool, the next year Rockets flee Las Vegas and trade Patrick? I don't think so; Chandler must have been a huge distraction.
