It does not take a rocket scientist to tell if Ron Artest at his best will improve the Houston Rockets. He will.
Artest wanted to be reunited with Coach Rick Adelman. Rick was his coach in Sacramento when Ron started playing there.
So the trade was made…
A source close to the Kings said Tuesday a trade has been agreed upon sending Ron Artest to Houston for former Sacramento point guard Bobby Jackson, first-round draft …read more

Unbelievable, simply unbelievable.
The Houston Rockets go a 12 game win streak, start playing great ball, have everything working, get themselves back into the playoff picture and “Pow” they are out of it.
Yao Ming has a stress fracture and will not be able to play for the rest of the season.
The Rockets are done for.
No Yao, no playoffs.
They may win for a while on pure emotion and T-Mac going off for a lot of points, but sooner or later they will miss long tall Yao.
“It is not an injury …read more

How can this be?
It is a reach even for 7′ 6″ Yao Ming to win 11 in a row.
Tracy McGrady playing consistently good?
Houston even trades two players away, do not suit up the guy they get and still keep winning!
How can this be?
Well, admittedly, most of the teams they beat were pretty bad teams, but they did just knock off Chris Paul and the Hornets (sounds like a 60’s rock group) and there were a couple of close scrapes with the Cleveland PreWallace LeBrons led by …read more

Your intrepid author’s illustrious comments are in italics.
We are the most disappointing. Oh no!
1. Houston – They discovered the truth about this team’s limitations. From Tracy McGrady’s mental and physical fragility to an absence of athleticism, they were a flawed power. They’re devoid of an identity, stuck between what they were with Van Gundy and what …read more

Yao Ming is King
So just when did this happen?
What is that?
You know, Yao, Yao Ming, the center for the Houston Rockets.
Yeah, Yao. So what happened?
You know, Yao has become the best center in the National Basketball Association!
No, you mean like Shaq or something right?
Can’t be Shaq, he has become a part-time player in recent years. Always finding a way to miss major parts of he regular season and then just show up for the playoffs. Yeah, in any one game it would not be smart to bet against …read more
