Doesn't change the fact that the rockets logo is amateur at best. If there was 1 or 2 vertical rockets I could understand that, but the horizontal ones make no sense. They might as well put them upsidedown since their fans' hopes and dreams always come crashing down.

I hate Ron Artest. I wanted Udoka to knock his ass out.

Yeah, THAT'LL happen.

Sweet revenge on the Spurs...Go Rockets...

And please stop crying about not having Manu, we've played now 20 games without T-Mac and have gone 16-4...And Manu isn't your best player its Parker...I'd love to see you guys play without Parker for 20 games...YOU WOULD NEVER BE 16-4...

For those for hate Ron-Ron, well get used to him being in the Southwest, the Rockets will re-sign this offseason...Udoka is a chump compared to Artest. Ron ABUSED the Spurs (taking it to the basket...)

And YES THANK YOU SPURS for trading Scola to us...Smart move...to a division rival
LMAO at Spurs with that move....19 points, 17 rebounds, 3 steals...

I respect the Spurs, good team, but to hear you guys talk crap about the Rockets after the season we've had & after we just beat you & hold the dividion lead...is ridiculous...

Now we go @Utah tomorrow...OUCH...Gotta love teh West

Manu is a team player and is a hustle player at the same time. He means much more to the Spurs than T-Lack means to the Rockets.

Serious question: how do you feel about the Rockets' chances of getting past Utah in the first round? Does it worry you that a Rockets-Jazz matchup is a real possiblity?

Yes, a series with Utah will be tough, because at home their almost unbeatable.
However, I really want the Jazz in the playoffs, we are a better team this year than we were last year even with the 22 wins... We need to shut them up...
If we can win tonight in Utah, that will really set the tone....

Our defense is Top 3 in this league, especially since T-Mac went down. If we get far in playoffs it will only be due to that D. Of course having Yao helps!

Only team I want to avoid for now is Lakers, but we won't finish with the 8th seed, so no worries there...

I'm sure that the Spurs fans here are fascinated by this.

Well, I asked him this question after he talked trash about Sunday's game. It was meant to be a rhetorical question; I was trying to point out the insignificance of a regular season win over the Spurs considering the Rockets' inevitable first round exit.

I was hoping for a "yeah, well we talk about the friggin' Lakers all the time in this thread and you don't seem to mind" response, which would result in two pages worth of talking about the Lakers, but you thwarted that plan.

Next time, Gadget. Next time...

I wonder how many people actually get that hilarious reference. ^^^

Keep talking buddy...I'd worry about needing LUCK to beat the lowly Warriors at home, before talking about Rockets 1st round exit...Spurs are no longer what they were...Still a good team, but not Championship caliber...

Not saying that the Rockets are either...
