Rockets change in attitude
It's NBA playoffs time, and everyone's is rallying behind their favorite teams. No matter whose team is favored, I will always stand behind my Houston Rockets.
This post isn't meant to debate whether the refereeing in our last series game against Dallas was unfair...Because it was, of if Houston should win the National Championship...Because they should, but it is to look beyond the statistics of the game of basketball to what I consider the most important driving factor of our team....The fans!
Historically, the Rockets have not been the greatest team in the league...Minus a brief stint of GREATNESS in 1994 and 1995 as repeat national champions. However, I think that numbers are used too often to measure the greatness of a team.
In recent news, our coach, Jeff Van Gundy, was charged a 100,000 dollar fine for his reaction to last games referees. The deluge of support from the team, the fans and the city for not only Van Gundy, but also the Houston Rockets has been immeasurable. I feel that passion has always been the factor that drives our city, whether it be in basketball, baseball, or any other Houston organization. When supporting our team, I don't look at the high statistics of Yao Ming, or Tracy McGrady...Because the statistics of one person doesn't matter. We have a cohesive team despite the odds, and I think we should win the titles of National Champions once again.
First Step: get rid of the Dallas Referees.
