ENOUGH! If you really want to know what is going to be on ESPN, don't look at the scoreboard or a team's schedule. Go to the very front page and click on "Full TV Schedule" in the top right hand corner. You must have Adobe Flash Player to view this though. Here's the direct link to it... http://sports.espn.go.com/espntv/espnGuide If you scroll to the right on the channel guide, you can see that not only will OUR game be televised on ESPN, they will show the replay of OUR game at 1am.
No need to shout, dude. It's not the fault of anyone here that there's confusion. I've been checking for nationally televised Rockets games nearly daily all season and this one's been on and off the ESPN schedule -- on their website, on TV listings and on DirectTV. It was listed about a week ago and it's been replaced by the Clippers game for the last couple days. I would have totally missed the game if I hadn't seen this thread. They just put it back on the schedule today.
