...Nigeria knew the University of Houston head basketball coach. He helps them to two final four appearances before the Rockets spend the first overall pick on him in 1984. So the Rockets now had in their organisation two centers. Ralph Sampson 7-5 and the Dream 7-0, hence the name the twin towers. The team made a great run in the 1985/86 season. Incidentally this is the first time that I watched them play. At the time I was in the Clemson area in ... Read review

Review of Houston Rockets by gaofengyi

Advantages: super
Disadvantages: ////

The Houston Rockets entered the NBA as an expansion team in 1967 along with the Seattle Supersonics. Their first draft pick - when they were still playing in San Diego - was Pat Riley. In the 1968 draft, the Rockets selected one of the greatest players in league history: Elvin "Big E" Hayes; he would go on to score over 27,000 points and grab more than 16,000 rebounds in a 16 year career, 7 of which were spent with the Rockets. Together with Calvin ...

Advantages: na
Disadvantages: na

...possible NBA Playoff preview, the Houston Rockets travel West to meet up with Shaq and the Phoenix Suns. The Phoenix Suns have stolen the Houston Rockets mojo and made it their own. Riding a 6-game winning streak, they entertain the suddenly weakened Houston Rockets. The Suns and Rockets sport identical 46-22 records currently,while the Rockets have the #3-seed thanks to leading their division. The Phoenix Suns are planted in the #5-seed in the ...
...is the story of the Houston Rockets. Now we will see, in the aftermath of their record 22-game winning streak, if they can compete for real, minus Yao Ming for the duration. The Rockets have fallen twice in a row now after their streak, and any elongated losing streak in the NBA West these days can send you down several spots in the pecking order. Tracy McGrady's recently vaunted leadership abilities need to come to the forefront in the Rockets ... Read review

Review of Basketball - General by XICripZ taken from ciao.co.uk

Advantages It's just sick
Disadvantages Lots of rules

...-season: 5/3 The Mavs came from the 2006 season on a high, they went all the way to the finals. It changed somewhat in the following season when they began the season by losing four consecutive games, this was later recoverd when the managed to win 55 games in a row, it ended-up as a very successful 67/15, but they weren't ble to translate this into any achievements bigger than the Southwest divisional championship. This year they know that they are capable of more, they showed it in the '05/06 season, so big Dirk Nowitzki and his Mavs are going to have to prove that they can make the best out of the talent in the team. **Houston Rockets** Location: Toyota Center, Houston, Texas Team Colours: Red, white, silver Achievements: NBA Champions (X2) Conference Champions (X4) Pre-season: 3/4 Eventhough the team lost in the first...

Review of Basketball - General by Angelus taken from ciao.co.uk

Advantages Fast paced fun
Disadvantages Not as popular as it should be

..., and all of a sudden the UK was in-fluxed with washed up reserve team players from the US, mixed in with home-grown talent as the UK tried to catch onto this fast uprising sport. Still today the leagues exist but they aren´t what they used to be, the Chicago Bulls dominance of the sport has finished, teams like Utah Jazz, L.A.Lakers and my personal favourite Houston Rockets have stepped up to the plate and taken over, the league is still as popular as ever, although it is being threatened with implosion as players start to hold their teams to ransom on their wages, the millions keep coming in, but they´re soon to be seen going straight out of the game again, and the UK?, well we´re still a fledgling league, we don´t have the `cool status´ of the NBA, well lets face it playing in the Haribo Basketball League, whilst seeing the biggest stars...
