Outside Houston, NOBODY is going to root for the Rockets against GSW

[ChrisKreager]

Harden, Dwight, Josh Smith, Jason Terry- 4 incredibly annoying basketball players.

By default, they are the bad guys left in the playoffs without the Heat/Lakers around.

Against a team everyone loves with the Splash Brothers, this is a wrestling matchup- true heel vs. true fan favorite.

[Bernkastel]

I'm rooting for them.

[jayfan]

You might be right, but people love rooting for the underdog.

[Bobcats2013]

I think they won alot of fans with this comeback.

[JebronLames]

Cavs fans and LeBron fans will. Also, Hawks fans.

[Smook A.]

Nobody? C'mon... there must be atleast ONE person outside of Houston who'll root for the Rockets. 7 billion people in the world mayne.

[hateraid]

Fairweather fans are all over GSW. It's the trendy thing right now

[inclinerator]

how can people root for james harden

[Bobcats2013]

Nobody? C'mon... there must be atleast ONE person outside of Houston who'll root for the Rockets. 7 billion people in the world mayne.

bruh congrats on the W btw. For real youre one of the very few rockets fan on here that's chill. Wish you and your squad good luck.

This is correct.

Yao Ming fans from China still root for the Rockets to this day.

Likewise :cheers:

True. I'd say we got PLENTY of people rooting for Houston.

[Smoke117]

Wrong.

[Spurs5Rings2014]

Rockets got this. Too many doubters for them to fail now. The salt is trill.

:applause:

[raprap]

Rooting for them.


Gsw had it easy.

[MrC1991]

I just can't wait to see how many threes will be attempted/made this series lol.

[MEB2kDeez]

Lol i cant wait either

:applause:
No more 18+ FTA for Harden. He will not get by Klay that easily. Lock him down Klay lets gooooooooo...I wanted this matchup so bad and I finally have it. 4-1 but I would love to see another sweep but this time in the playoffs.

[NumberSix]

I'd like to see the reaction to Dwight Howard winning a chip, and Harden being a champ while KD isn't.

[24-Inch_Chrome]

I think that GS will win but I'm not really rooting for either team. I don't like Houston because I dislike Harden and I don't like Golden State because their fans are obnoxious and occasionally delusional.

I'll probably be cheering for whoever comes out of the East.

[UK2K]

Houston is good for retail sales.

Should be a good year.

[AintNoSunshine]

The league would become a laughing stock if HOU were to be the Champ, just the thought makes me cringe.

[hawksdogsbraves]

Dwight Howard and Josh Smith are probably the two most unlikeable players left in the playoffs.

Harden is probably the most unlikable superstar in the league, (though to be fair it's mostly due to his style, not his despicable actions like Howard and Smith).

Morey is up there with the most unlikable GM's.

So yeah, unless you have a bone to pick with the Warriors or you're just so casual that you don't really know anything about the teams themselves there's no way you're gonna cheer for the Rockets.

[SugarHill]

I'm rooting for Rockets

[FreezingTsmoove]

If Rockets win game 1 your absolutely wrong, casuals love the underdog. If Warriors win the first two the casuals will continue to ride the bandwagon

[SyRyanYang]

Rooting for them.


Gsw had it easy.

Pelicans>>>>Mavs
Grizzlies>>>>>>>>Clippers

[SaltyMeatballs]

Pelicans>Mavs
Grizzlies>Clippers
Fixed. Quit over exaggerating like you're comparing the 96 Bulls to the current 76ers.

[fsvr54]

I'm rooting for them. I love Smoove and Terry, plus Harden was robbed of MVP.

[kwajo]

I'm rooting for them, not sure why. I don't like many of their players (aside from Brewer and Beverley, who isn't even playing), but I just can't get behind the Warriors for some reason. I've always liked Bogut, Run TMC was amazing, and Dell "Big Poppa" Curry was my guy, but the current team rubs me the wrong way as a whole.

Go Houston!

[JohnFreeman]

Go Rockets

[Spaulding]

I'm rooting for them.

OP doesn't know what he's talking about.

[Prometheus]

I don't see anything unlikable about a team led by Trevor Ariza. He seems like a respectable dude.

[imdaman99]

Hate both those teams. That being said, fk the Warriors more. Let's go Houston :pimp:

[ApexPredator]

Disagree with the OP. Cavs and Hawks fans also want the Rockets in the Finals.

[brandonman]

Against a team everyone loves with the Splash Brothers, this is a wrestling matchup- true heel vs. true fan favorite.

But wouldn't Hawks and Cavs fans be rooting for the Rockets? Obviously the Rockets are a much easier out than the Warriors......

Its not like if the Rockets some how won this series they would all of the sudden be taken seriously

agree, those 4 are fukking annoying

[ApexPredator]

Yep. Clippers weren't great either: CP3, Blake, Barnes. But at least DeAndre is likeable.

[Mass Debator]

So darn lucky to acquire Brewer and Smith for little to nothing.

[Mr Exlax]

The good thing is we don't really need anybody outside of Houston rooting for us.

[bballnoob1192]

houston is not the usual underdog. they have a lot of unlikeable personality on their team. I think the only person i like on that team is Ariza.

[Vragrant]

Absolutely, Dwight/Harden/Terry are unbearable.

IDont get why Terry still acts like a college kid on the court. You're 37 years old man, grow the hell up.

[MiseryCityTexas]

Fairweather fans are all over GSW. It's the trendy thing right now

Warriors haven't got this much publicity since that time when Latrell choked PJ.

[lebron06]

Gaurantee lakers fans wont :roll:

[Done_And_Done]

Rooting for nobody. As an impartial non-partisan fan I just hope to God that these series are more entertaining than most of what we've seen this post season.

[Jameerthefear]

going for the rox actually

[ApexPredator]

Just got worse after playing with KG too.

[outbreak]

I want GSW to win, but if Houston win the championship I win close to a grand from a pre season bet I put on :confusedshrug:

[oarabbus]

Hate both those teams. That being said, fk the Warriors more. Let's go Houston :pimp:


Both Warriors and Rockets fans can be content in knowing their team did more in the last month than the Knicks in the last 40 years :roll:

[ApexPredator]

That's just because they are more likeable than LeBron and Co. or Harden and Co., while nobody cares about the Hawks.

[jamgolf]

I'm a long time Dallas Mavericks fan and will be rooting for Houston over all other remaining teams.
They showed a lot of heart in defeating the Clippers from 1-3 down.
Their stars are showing up and their role-players are out-playing their roles.
Kevin McHale is making some bold moves eg. playing rookies, sitting Harden etc. and is not timid.
I think its their time.
Go Rockets !

[TheMilkyBarKid]

Outside of Bogut and Iggy I dont find the warriors to be that likeable.

Rockets winning would certainly make things more interesting on here.

Did Curry cuckold your father? Otherwise, I don't see what is unlikeable about him.

[TheMilkyBarKid]

Never said he was unlikeable, I just don't find him to be all that likeable. Shade of gray here.

Don't get me wrong when he's going he can be one of the more entertaining superstars.
