    1) ESPN goes with UCLA/Stanford game as their top story when the Rockets win their 17th game in a row.

    2) First commercial break during the Dallas game you hastily rush your dog outside and your dog takes a slow 5 minute piss in 5 different spots, then a slow 5 minute crap in 10 different spots, making you miss half of the 3rd quarter.

    3) Nocioni keeps commiting Ron Artest "NO LAYUP" fouls while his team is up 20 because he knows it will delay the upcoming TNT Rockets game.

    carry on...

    I really don't give a **** about BSPN or respect from the media anymore.

    As long as we hold that trophy, that is all what matters to me.

    i dont see anything wrong with the ESPN story (granted I am also a Bruin) but that had more interest nationally I would say since its two major college powerhouses going at it for basically the PAC-10 title and on top of that it was an amazing game.

    but frankly the less people talk about it the better I think.


    of course when the streak does end everyone is going to be like

    Oh noes! see no Yao no worky!

    Kenny enough with your hate. I don't know what is your problem but you have been dead wrong on your predictions for the Rockets and you will continue to do so. The Rockets will get past the first round and after that is all good.

    I guess it's a good thing that we still have our underdog status.

    At least most fans here know what the Rockets can do.

    I love the hate. Bring it on. It makes every win so much sweeter.

    Man that is some circular reasoning, if I ever seen it.

    I thought it was pretty classless when they did that little piece about T-Mac never getting out of the first round when we were blowing the Mavs out. Seriously though, why bring that up when we are doing so good? Why not do a piece of teams with long ass winning streaks or something? They just had to point out that T-Mac never got out the first round, even though damn near everyone knows that.

    Guess the only way to shut the critics up will be to sweep week 16. Beat the Hornets, Lakers, Celtics, Warriors, Suns

    Haha, it's obvious that beside the ones who are actually watching the games, no one knows how good the Rockets are.

    I'd rather shut them up after we win the 2nd round of the playoffs. :cool:

    **** kenny smith. i really didn't believe he was a bonafide hater, but if this isn't damning evidence i dont know what is.... he cut the rockets down at every possible opportunity, and i even agree with him that this team in all reality probably isn't a true title contender come playoff time.

    **** kenny smith.

    I'm reading all of these analyst hate the rockets threads and one constant thing is apparent to me.

    As Tmac stated last night, the only real important thing that matters is that this team believes in itself. For whatever reason the doubters loud cry has put a chip on this teams shoulders, and they decided to respond by coming closer together and making it happen regardless of the lack of media bandwagon support.


    It's not so much the streak as it is the fact that they have become a TEAM and truly play to help eachother succeed. Even Rafer Alston has changed to the point where you begin to believe that Rick Adelman has said that one thing to him that woke him up, and even he isnt a fluke.


    In all honesty, I don't care if they don't support the Rockets in the media. As long as this team continues to win.
