    My Houston Rockets are the real deal!!

    Sure San Antonio didn't come to play last night, but it is more about the whole start of this season.

    The Rockets are 6-0 and have won ALL games by more than 11 points! When is the last time that has happened? Houston is averaging winning by 14.6 points per game.

    For that matter, the Western Conference is just dominating over the Eastern Conference this season. Check out Houston's division! Every team is at or above .500
    6 0 1.000 0.0 0.0 2-0 4-0 1-0 3-0 6-0 104.3 89.7 14.6 W-6 Houston
    5 0 1.000 0.5 0.5 2-0 3-0 1-0 3-0 5-0 93.6 86.2 7.4 W-5 Memphis
    3 2 .600 2.5 2.5 2-0 1-2 1-1 2-2 3-2 106.8 105.6 1.2 L-1 Dallas
    2 2 .500 3.0 3.0 2-0 0-2 1-1 1-2 2-2 91.3 96.0 -4.7 L-1 San Antonio

    Only decent team they've played thus far is miami.
    San Antonio wasn't San antonio last night.

    Golden state is the play tomorrow.

    so far so good

    If Howard plays real well they can win it all but we know he does not care and does not put out every night

    They're hot. Ride them while it lasts.

    Harden and Howard suck in the playoffs until proven otherwise.

    They're one Harden or Howard injury from being average. There's absolutely no depth on that team.

    Gospel. Want to see this thread bumped after Houston gets their ass handed to them in the first round.
    Once again....Howard is the "size dog, fight dog" poster child.

    Houston went on a year in the regular season last year and got bounced in round 1.

    6 games in. Let's hold off on crowning them just yet.

    I really hope you didn't mush our team pal.

    And for everyone else talking sh*t, piss off and let us enjoy a few penetrating wins for once.

    Harden is better at D than he was last year. I was at the Spurs/Rockets game in Houston. No Manu or Duncan, but still a great win.

    Houston is just an average team... they still don have that one guy that can drive the ball into the lane... all they do is jump shots. And dont be fooled... harden and howard cant play together for shit.. when they try to we can see it being telegraphed. I can see everytime harden trying to pass the ball to howard..im telling myself oh no dont do it dont do it.. and he does it.. try to pass the ball to howard instead got turnovers... lame duck

    Nice try Kobe nutt hugger but Yao got hurt during that streak. If he stays healthy, the Rockets would of won the West that year.

    Getting excited about a team in NBA before March is something a mentally retarded person does. Someone like playersonly69. Now go eat a pallet of ding dongs you low life.


    gotta love how a guy who cries about points to order pizza for his fat ass is calling an NBA team "my team" like he owns them. only thing he owns is a better than average chance of heart disease and diabetes.

    You our are as dumb as po69. If every game mattered do you really think teams like Spurs and Heat would've rested their best players regularly. A good team wins on the road in playoffs.
