Rockets New Slogan 

Post#1 » by TheMan44 » Sun Nov 1, 2009 1:44 am

"Where 4 Forwards And A Tiny Point Guard In Starting Lineup Happens"

Suns fan here, just thought of a nice new slogan for the Rockets after completing my annual depth chart sheets.

Not an insult. I am rooting for the Rockets and wish them best because I like underdogs - esp. teams who are missing their main one-two punches.

Outside of Phoenix - I'll be rooting for these guys cause the "4 Forwards & A Guard" have a ton of talent - and that includes defensive-minded undersized center Chuck...

Thanks for the well wishes. A lot of us have been saying that this will be a fun team to watch this season. There's something very liberating about not having any high expectations for the team. Totally stress-free, enjoyable basketball!

As for the slogan: I'm still partial towards: "Chuck Hayes: He looks like Wes Unseld and your team wishes that they had him!" but that's tough to fit on a bumper sticker.

I will go with:

"Houston Rockets! Spotting you 40 million in salary, each game."

Beat me too it, as a Jazz fan. I was going to wish Rockets luck, since they are my new 2nd favorite team in the west. You got to love a team with no real allstars. I think your coach will have this crew playing great and Houston will be in the playoffs again.
