    Rockets mentioned in my textbook

    I was reading my Marketing text-book, getting ready for finals and I came across this paragraph...

    'In brief (and simplistically), a basketball team includes 10-12 players, of whom five play as a unit at anytime. The players differ in the roles expected of them and the strengths they offer. One player, the point guard, has primary responsibility for dribbling, controlling the tempo of the offense, and setting up plays. YET, BOTH GUARDS ALSO PLAY DEFENSE AS WELL as offense. The center, who typically is the tallest player on the team, HAS A MAJOR RESPONSIBILTY FOR BOTH INSIDE SCORING, REBOUNDING, AND DEFENDING AGAINST THE OPPOSING CENTER. Two other players, the forwards, score from intermediate range and also have responsibility for rebounding and DEFENDING. '

    this part really got to me...
    'The quality of a basketball team depends on all players working together and playing as a unit. Offense is important, but so is defense. Players who can score points quickly and in spurts are important, but so are those who are steady and dependable'


    Seems like my marketing text book wasn't talking about the Rockets for sure...

    maybe in a few yrs. Hopefully.
