Yeah, the players needed a while to get used to Adelman's system. It was a rough and slow start, but we finally got our rhythm. It's just a shame that Yao had to get injured. :(

Imagine what type of run we could make this year with Yao dominating the paint.

Nope. You'll have to try harder if you want to get me kicked. I will entertain a flamewar with you though. Just flame away and I'll oblige.

The main reason Rockets are so hot because role players stepped up every single night at the right time and we got lucky for injuries of opposing team. Another reason is our defense has been clicking and nobody gave up on every single play. Every players hustle and contest every shots. However, come back to the main reason - when you got a streak like that, you gotta need some luck.

Wow, finally the most annoying poster I have ever seen is gone(for now). I was surprised it took so long after I saw some of the posts he made in the CA board recently.

Good times. Now we just need to figure out how to get SAS to overdose on CD's so we can LOL at him, IMO.
We watched the tragedy unfold. We did as we were told, we bought and sold. It was the greatest show on Earth...but then it was over.

Shame. After that 'chinese medicine' thread we might almost have had enough for a Turing test.


Grond, your computer science nerdijoke has eluded even me, and I really liked Automata class. :P

Rocket's depth is the reason to Rocket's success.

Rockets role players are good but they are not well known. With rockets in the limelight recently, the rest of the league start to realise the quality of rest of the rockets (outside Tmac and Yao).

Knock #45009849 on corporate media

In spite of following the entire league all the time, they seem to be generally unaware of 55% of its players and 84% of ours, both of which are inexcusable regardless of the reason it's done (ignorance or promoting an agenda / artificially constructed storyline).

Houston is primarily a production business-based city. Work any conclusions you want from there.

Um, i was a little boozed when i wrote this. But after wading through pages of more or less identical rants about traitors, invading, bombing, and mind-wiping i found my mental image of compucomp changing from sexually-frustrated-teenager to creepy-Chinese-govt-engineered-borg-AI. Hence the Turing ref.

ah well. did i mention i was a little boozed?
