this team is not entertaining to watch and we have no stars, thats why its a ghost town, ive literally fell asleep watching games this season, that aint ever happened in all my 19 years of watching the rockets. They need to make a move or at least get an exciting team to watch.
I respect this perspective. I agree that there is too much volatility regarding the roster, but then again a lot of people on here (not me) would be beside themselves if Morey said we weren't going to package things together for a "star". I would prefer that they kept the current roster for the remainder of the season and reevaluate at season's end. I think most fans are more willing to accept turnover on their team when out of season. It's just the nature of pro sports to have turnover, and asking casual fans to root for temporary placeholders does not exactly stoke the fire for them to come to games. Chuck was a fan favorite, and he's gone baby gone. They're all pawns in a king's chess game though I guess.
Can't imagine you've watched the majority of games then... We have had some bad ones (name me the NBA team that hasn't...), but the vast majority have been at least decent and mostly good games.
This is no longer accurate. The reason the club level is empty is because the pricing is terrible. Comparable seats at every venue in NBA except knicks and maybe lakers are cheaper. We have to have some of the worse priced tickets in the league. They havent really changed prices in 5 years!! You cant be stubborn and have the same prices as we did when we had Tmac and Yao in 2008. The people at the top dont know what they are doing.
I wanted season tickets in club level this year and they were all sold out. Your statement is not accurate. The seats are also bought by ticket brokers.
you can...but that's on Flashseats. Those seats are already sold. When I buy them through Flashseats, it doesn't increase attendance. That only happens when you buy tix from the Rockets directly.
i am a ticket broker. I dropped 4 club seats this year. The club level is definitely not sold out. They have piles of tickets. I am not sure when or who you talked to but that is 100% false
Minor gripe: If we had a public rail system to the burbs I live in it would certainly make it easier to get to the game. As is, the drive and parking night mare that is Houston leaves me unmotivated a lot to want to make the game especially if i had to drive all over town earlier in the day. Logistics of Houston are not on the side of the Rockets but this year's team is pretty boring outside of Klow's heroics and DABear moments.
