Houston Rockets get no respect
By Mike in Politcs Plus
March 17, 2008

Even Houston Rocket Shane Battier said it was the worst team to ever go 21-0.

Well, perhaps he's right but 22-0 is something to be proud of.

 

Since I cannot buy a Houston Chronicle in Victoria, anymore, I have to rely on Houston Chronicle.com for more Rocket news.  Can you imagine city of 70,000 and the Sunday Houston Chronicle is nowhere to be found?

 

Sunday's win against the Lakers was awesome, but the ABC announcers kept pointing to the Lakers not being at full strength….. Yao Ming is more of a loss to the Houston Rockets than the players the Lakers were missing. How many times did they say about Houston's upcoming schedule, and they are just three loses from being out of the playoffs?

 

I tuned in to ESPN's "Mike and Mike in the morning”,but they led off with Denver scoring 168 points, finally saying, " We must give some credit to the Houston Rockets win over the LA Lakers extending their winning streak" in fact, one of the Mikes said.  "If it was San Antonio, LA.Utah or Phoenix, we will be talking about them being the team to beat for the championship."

 

Just keep winning Houston Rockets.

    Quite the opposite,my Redrage00 friend I can see the people of Houston just now getting on the bandwagon. You got to understand the when Yao Ming went down, people of Houston were looking for their Astro gear,now they have extended their basketball season.
    About 16 games  to go, anything can happen, losing two of three in a row,  might leave the Rocket s out of a playoff berth.
    The Rockets fans are on a history high, and can only be brought down to reality with about two losses.
    Their West is brutal, with  just about every team having 40 wins or more..... San Antonio is a good example, they lost four straight and still only two games out of first..... I will be on the edge of my seat all night against Boston...LOL

    The Rockets' game tonight against the Celtics will be interesting. After watching the Spurs have a sub-par second half against the Celts last night, I'm questioning their bench. Luckily, they have a couple days off to regroup.
