Best place for Rockets news? 

Post#1 » by Mr. E » Wed Sep 30, 2015 2:58 pm

What are some good news sources for Rockets news?

I'm not a fan of the Houston Chronicle and will not pay to read some of their articles & opinion pieces. The local stations all seem to have pretty vanilla coverage as well.

Times like this makes me wish that we had a few more options and that Houston media wasn't so laid back.

The Dream Shake, & Red Ninety Four are good rockets blogs and worth a follow on Twitter
And ClutchFans is a good forum

As far as actual news using something like Bleacher Report that compiles all the news pieces for your teams is useful. But the comment sections are unruly

I follow Clutch on Twitter, but I don't frequent their forums. I will check from time to time just to see any rumblings.

I think Clutch ends up being very speculative and a clumsy forum. I like RealGM much, much more.

In the end, I keep up with the official feeds from the team and Ultimate Rockets. http://blog.chron.com/ultimaterockets/

CF not the best site, but it gives you everything From there you link to all other sites. Like if you want something you go to Walmart/Target you are guaranteed to find what you want, compared to HEB/Kroger/Randell/etc.

Things I will not follow: Rockets official FB/IG/Twitter accounts. They are just for posters or merchandise purposes.
RealGM loves you, Melissa.

The official Twitter account was awesome last year until the guy who ran it was fired for the infamous [HORSE FACE][PISTOL]
