    if we trade James, my hope will be that he or morey win a championship and that the rockets win the #1 pick. both can happen. James or morey winning a championship will not prevent the rockets from reaching their goal of getting the #1 pick and rebuilding.

    The jump to my pals teams such as the clippers and the nets don’t have a loyal fan base. It’s just a destination .

    The nets and clippers will never overtake the Knicks and lakers in their cities as far as popularity and identification.

    the nets are from New Jersey nobody asked Brooklyn if they needed another team.
    LA doesn’t need two basketball teams

    well it's no secret that ny has one of the best fans, can't really compare to htine's basketball fanbase. I've gone to sooo many rockets games at the toybox and people always look at me weird when i scream and support the team. htine fans are an embarrassment compared to nyc.

    Wait, I thought we purged the last of the fake Rockets fans when Lin was traded to the Lakers. Are fake Rockets fans still hanging around?

    I will always hope and root for the Rockets, however I will not give blind loyalty or pretend things are good when they are not. Outside of the Rockets I have rooted for Lebron his whole career and will continue to do so until he retires. I've been displeased with our style of play for some time now, which is why I was happy when we had CP3(1st year) because he made us a smarter team and provided a different style of pace. I disagree with many that say we can't win a chip with Harden because the problem isn't solely on Harden - it's the lack of versatility we can offer in the playoffs mainly due to the personnel and the system.
