I jinx the Rockets

[dream34]

Guess who has tickets to tomorrow's game?

Let me give you a little history from a jinxed fan living 1,055 miles away from Houston.

11/12/10: Rockets @ Pacers
Yao Ming injured the game before.

4/4/10: Rockets @ Pacers: L 133 - 102

Just purely dominated by the rockets. Said Rockets swingman Chase Budinger, "We had no intensity this game. I can't explain what it was or why we were like that, but nothing came our way.". Yao out, T-Mac traded recently.

3/7/10: Rockets @ Pistons: L 107 - 110

Overtime loss

12/27/09: Rockets @ Cavaliers: L 83 - 108
http://espn.go.com/nba/boxscore?gameId=291227005
No Yao, No T-Mac, No Win.

10/16/09: Rockets @ Pacers (Preseason): L 104-119

Whatever, it's preseason. Yao and McGrady still out.

1/25/09: Rockets @ Pistons: W 108 - 105
http://espn.go.com/nba/recap?gameId=290125008
Yao Ming injured the game before.

1/23/09: Rockets @ Pacers: L 102 - 107
http://espn.go.com/nba/recap?id=290123011
Yao Ming gets injured before halftime. Tracy McGrady and Ron Artest were already on the injured list.

12/23/08: Rockets @ Cavaliers: L 90 - 99
http://espn.go.com/nba/recap?id=281223005

2/1/08: Rockets @ Pacers: W 106 - 103
http://espn.go.com/nba/recap?id=280201011
Carl Landry's break out game - hell yea! Yao and Tmac both play. I should have played the lottery.

12/23/07: Rockets @ Pistons: L 82 - 94
http://espn.go.com/nba/recap?id=271223008
Yao and Tracy both leave the game with injuries.

12/26/06: Rockets @ Pacers: L 76 - 81
http://espn.go.com/nba/recap?id=261226011
Yao Ming injured the game before, fracturing a bone in his leg. Tracy McGrady, forced to return from injury early, plays like garbage.

1/22/06: Rockets @ Pistsons L 97 - 99
http://espn.go.com/nba/recap?gameId=260122008
No Yao, toe injury, T-Mac plays great but falters in the 4th. I can still see Luther Head taking a terrible 3 pointer for the win.

11/20/05: Rockets @ Pacers L 74-85
http://espn.go.com/nba/recap?id=251120011
Tracy McGrady injured the game before, does not play.

I think you should become a Heat and Lakers fan.

Last nights win was awesome, maybe I don't jinx the Rockets, just Yao Ming lol

[College Boy]

That's freaking hilarious.

I'm pretty sure I jinx them, too.

I've been to about 10 games over the last 2-3 years and the only game they won was the 3OT game against MINNESOTA last season.

I've been to 1 playoff game, too. Game 3 against the Lakers in the 2nd round the season before last. You know, the one where the Rockets lost home court advantage and Yao broke his foot and subsequently missed the entire next season? Yeah, that game.
