    Who cares? Even with a full roster they barely give us any games.

    What is this? What did you expect? No Yao and Tmac. We are going to stink!

    The league has become the "haves" and "have-nots" and the grouping of teams in the West and East that improved themselves in the off-season "arms race" are going to get tons of TV time to drive ratings.

    What do you expect? It's possible that we will have no stars on this team all season long.

    No Yao, no crazy Ron, not even brokeback Tmac, what do you expect? It'll be a lot different next yr when we have John Wall and Yao paired up !!! :) :)

    plus NBA does allow for games to be added on and taken off. so if tracy does return and we do well, we'll get added on some games.

    we got dropped a few times the past few years

    Getting LP this year for the purpose of catching all the Rockets games is gonna be like paying a dominatrix to punish you....without the happy ending.

    0 National TV games is in the realm of lottery teams, only the bottom feeders ever get 0 national TV games. The networks must think we will be one of the worse 5 teams in the league.

    i don't care what our record is. brooks will be a big part of our future most likely and i wanna see him develop, along with trevor. LP is a must next yr.

    I remember the game 6 in lakers series created the espn recording.

    They should show a couple of rockets games on national tv, and show some respect to our role players.

    This surprises you how?

    NBAtv is part of the basic package for Directv now, so that's a good thing. :)

    They have to televise a Houston Rockets vs. Los Angeles Lakers rematch...

    Also, they could reschedule national TV games anytime they want!

    I wouldn't be that pissed but the T'Wolves, Grizzlies, Pacers each got one. The Knicks get five of them just because big name players score big against them at home. Give me a break...
