If he returns to San antonio, that means he just wants to be a cheerleader on a team that didn't want him in the first place.

a) keep telling yourself that. you think pop just traded barry without having a long talk with him first? lol
b) rockets aren't a contender. last week they were out of the playoff picture.

And this week we are, what a difference a day makes.

I don't want to disrespect 12 in a row, but you played 4 teams, who are on PO positisions, including 2 against torso of Cleveland Cavaliers. It has to be very good team to win 12 in a row, but beating Hawks, Bucks, Pacers, Heat and Wolves doesn't make you contender. Sorry

I don't know if the rockets truly are a contender or not (I traditionally believe that a team has to have a history of winning playoff series in previous years, to actually be one) BUT, if the Nuggets are not truly in the championship picture, I would probably cheer on the rockets. They have some likable players, and most importantly, have a history with Utah. And if we can't give Utah a hard time, we should cheer on a fanbase that hates Utah as much as we do.

But McGrady sucks ass... I like some old Rockets teams but this one? With Alson, Yao?

If there is a team I'll cheer for in PO, it's LA LAKERS. oh my... Showtime is BACK!

I cheer for any team in the playoffs not playing us, and not named the Utah Jazz, San Antonio Spurs or Dallas Mavericks. Anyone else winning is alright with me.

2 weeks ago, all their fans were freaking out the way you are right now.

there's 26 games left.

we're 1/2 game behind golden state, and just 3 games behind the division lead.

26 games ago i think we had 3 games on both houston & utah.

settle.

Granted the Rockets had a cup cake schedule looking at our schdule we have a tough one and we have more road games left which we suck at.

I wonder if Yao's season ending foot injury will affect Barry's decision. My guess is, it will.
