    I blame all of this on the injury of David Robinson. He went down for what? The entire year? in 96-97? That allowed them to get Duncan, and here we are today.

    I hope the Spurs win it all this year. Tim Duncan is the epitome of class and professionalism. He is definitely my favorite player who has never been a Rocket. Who cares how many championships they win? In fact, people that talk about some championships being less valuable than others seem like the crappiest of fans to me.

    Take out Duncan from their lineup, and see how many championships can Ginobli and Parker bring.

    I'm sick of hearing this. How is b****ing nearly every single time up and down the court classy? He whines too much to be considered the epitome of class, IMO. Of course, pretty much the whole league whines now, but no one ever calls Duncan and Ginobili out on it.

    I'm desperately rooting against them, but not because of Lone Star! I love me some Lone Star!

    best case scenario is for the pistons to defeat the heat and then beat the spurs.

    i dont want san antonio to have more rings than houston, and i also dont want shaq to have 2 more rings than hakeem.

    I know that the ring is the only thing that matters, but, as a whole, the Rockets over the years have been a better franchise overall.....and we still have the advantage in Finals appearances.

    I don't know about you guys, but if it's a Texas team then I'm happy. Oh wait, I'll never cheer for the Dallas mavs SOBS again. My bad.

    Chicago Bulls maybe. I heard they won 6 in the 90's. 3 of which were inside that 10 year period. The rockets and pistons would not fit into the last 10 years.:rolleyes:

    The Heat haven't beat out the Pistons yet.

    This is a 7 game series. There is no way the Pistons go down in game 6. Of course I couldn't give a rat ass to who wins it this year as long as it isn't a WC team.

    Vernon Maxwell is the epitome of class and professionalism.

    My favorite player not to be a Rocket? Ray Allen

    Why care about how many championships the Spurs win? that's how many Championships the Rockets wont win. Thats why I care.

    That's right Rocketman!

    I can't stand the Ginobili flops. He's the new Vlade with less facial hair.

    This year's Duncan would get D-ed up by Otis Thorpe!

    Dude as a North American, we've won EVERY CHAMPIONSHIP!!

    You see, as a Rockets fan in Texas, you have to confront two of the most annoying species of fans.
    Mavericks fan. Who already has braggin rights this year.

    [​IMG]

    And also Spurs fans. Who somehow think everyone was better than Hakeem. David Robinson, now Tim Duncan. ..

    I ocassionally run into Laker fan but they dont' really hate the Rockets. Only the Celtics, Kings, and themselves.

    Man, you must feel really insecure when you talk to fans of the Celtics, Yankees, Cowboys, or 49ers.

    I've never understood the concept of rooting for a team because they were from Texas. How does that work? Why does it even matter? It's not like we as Texans all of the sudden have bragging rights because the Spurs win it all. People would laugh at you if you said that.
