    He has just said it on ABC. He's shown us a lot of love.

    he has also said we are 'dark horse' along with Suns and Kings.

    He says we're the dark horse every year. We can literally have the worst record in the league and JVG will find some way to call us underrated or a contender of some sort.

    Merry Xmas all....

    I actually remember someone, cant recall who, saying this week that JVG always says great things about us so that he puts us on a pedelstal and thus if we don't succeed it makes him look good for doing what he did with the team and sets up Rick for failure. Not sure I'd agree with this but I will say, like someone else did too, the Rox could be the Nets and he would still find a way to make the team look legit lol. :grin:

    And I will take that every year! It's not often that someone from national media compliments our Houston Rockets.

    Did they actually try and make a case for Anderson Varejao as 6th man of the year.....

    The National Media is so clueless of teams outside LA/BoS/Cle

    JVG's homerism is subtle as opposed to Magic Johnson's blatant homerism which is sickening
