    Yeah, with Kyle and now Marcus playing for us, there should be a sizeable fan base in Philly.

    Congrats on the scholarship!

    If you're going to wear Rockets gear, wear a bulletproof vest and take a shotgun... other than that, good luck!

    The first Rockets game I attended in Philly was this masterpiece, I remember at the end of it, the Philly crowd was cheering for the last Rockets points.

    To be honest, if Yonizzel is gonna live in North Philly near Temple, he's got bigger problems in his own neighborhood after dark than at the Wells Fargo Center...

    Before clicking the link, I'm gonna guess its the 50 point beat down game.
    I remember Kobe was asked which is more impressive, scoring 50 or win by 50, and he said win by 50 and the reporter told him the Rockets did it tonight and he was really impressed.

    JVG will be remembered for that game!

    And if I'm not mistaken after this game, the Rockets are just 1-7 against the Sixers up to this date.
