[msnbc] Rockets might be the worst great team ever

good read. i like it. Fo sho

 

I don't mind these articles, it would be strange if no one wrote anything about the team that has won 20 straight, team HAS WON 20 straight, you know what?

Other teams have also favorable schedule many times in season and you know what? No one registered 20 W, thank y'all.

 

The article wasn't bad at all, actually. The title suggested some haterism but when you read it, there's not much that doesn't sound reasonable.

 

here's what it is.

We don't have the greatest talent, but we make up for it by having some of the greatest chemistry and team work ever seen.

 

We are talking about three great teams here. The worst is 3rd greatest. And by tomorrow, we may be talking about two great teams. And the worst is 2nd greatest.

Now imagine the title is changed to "Rockets may be the 3rd greatest team ever"!

 

idk if a thread was made for this or if it even deserves it...but apparently battier agrees, and takes it with pride

"I'm willing to concede we're the worst team in NBA history to have a 20-game winning streak," Rockets forward Shane Battier said. "I'm willing to concede that."

though if we have 21 wins tonight, we'd be the best team with a 21 game winning streak in nba history
