Game of the Century took place on January 20, 1968 here in Houston!

Updated.

When Clint doesn't play, we're 16 POINTS WORSE in differential.

Compare that to Paul's 3, Harden's 5, Mbah's strangely-enough 5.75, and Ariza's -3 (oops).

Do you remember when Alicia Keys slapped the whole city of Houston in the face?
Pepperidge Farm remembers.

We are ONE HALF game behind the WARRIORS, and 0.4 behind them in point differential!

After the game:

Harden: "I drink your milkshake! Slurp... I drink it up!"
CJ: "Don't bully me James."

I don't know why, but that quote drives this one lady I know absolutely ****.
Obviously, I say it all the time as a result.

Guys, unless the Raptors manage to beat us, I think we just won the championship.

When did they change the swingman jersey? I thought swingman mean they stitch the letters on the jersey. Just got the new Nike black Rockets jersey. Letters are iron on. It is lighter than Adidas one, but HOUSTON looks like they are glued on. Look so crap.

Yea, it used to be single-layered jerseys with stitches. I think that's changed since they signed with the new Nike designs.

Yeah, I did more research online. Seems like they changed that 2 years ago with Adidas. It looks good with some distance. Just up close it looks kind of cheap. I hope they don't come off. The material is lighter and smoother than the old Adidas I had.

You know.....

Everyone talks about how the New Orleans -> Utah Jazz’s name makes no sense.

Fair enough. That’s true.

Nobody ever really talks about how the Minneapolis, Minnesota (“Land of a Thousand Lakes”) -> Los Angeles (“Middle of a Freaking Desert”) Lakers’ name makes NO SENSE WHATSOEVER.

Heck, for that matter, HOUSTON Rockets makes sense, ok, but WHY were they named the Rockets when they were formed in SAN DIEGO?

Is there some mysterious southwestern space program we don’t know about?

Well the Utah Jazz is an organization that makes no sense in every way and has no championship rings.
