    I have been a Rockets fan even when they would go out the first round of playoffs against the Sonics and even when they wasn't making the playoffs and I knew they wasn't gonna make it I still watched the games. So please don't nobody accuse me of being a bandwagon jumper or anything like that.

    Couldn't I be both a Yao Ming and a Rockets fan?

    I want both to do well this season...

    I am a Rockets fan.

    I support the uniform and anybody who wears it. As long as they were it, I am a fan of them.

    I happen to like Yao Ming & Steve Francis. They are not mutually exclusive. BOTH need to be successful for the Rockets ti ahve a chance of winning. The team needs to step up when needed to make sure that we win ...as a team.

    You can be a fan of a player but still not like the team they play for.

    I like Tim Duncan but I hate the Spurs.
    I like Shaq but I despise the Lakers.
    I like Sam Cassell but I really don't care for the Bucks.

    A person can like Yao Ming or Steve Francis and not like the Rockets.

    Hell, I'll even like Moochie if he help the Rox win.

    Fan of the Rockets since 92, when I was eleven.

    I am Chinese, and therefore I'm a big Yao Ming fan almost by default.

    I started watching the Rockets on occasion when they drafted Hakeem. I became a fan when they made Rudy the coach. I think it was just the fact that he had been a great player, then a scout, then an assistant, then head coach that caused me to start watching. It made me feel that the Rockets were an organization with a degree of loyalty that you don't see much in professional sports any more. Then, of course, he almost immediately took us to a championship.

    I'm a Rockets fan 1st, a Rudy fan 2nd, then a Steve & Yao Ming fan. But the person that I would least like to see leave the Rockets is Rudy T.

    Well I guess if you have to classify me, I would put myself in the Zan Tabak fanclub.

    Rockets fan eversince Hakeem started in NBA. I am also a Yao fan. But if Yao went to a different team, I would want him to play well, but not against us. Hope that answers the question. I am a Rockets fan period.
