    After I watch the game against Portland and Utah, this rockets team reminds me of "the team" Sacramento directed by Adelman, and defeated by Robert Horry's another big shot.

    The kings is return with beautiful offence little bit decreased, but defense and "heart & spirit of never give up" added.

    No. We're much less talented. But I do believe we can do some damage though. Go Rox! :cool:

    There's no Robert Horry to defeat this team. Crooked refs are still here though :mad:

    If the kings had chuck on their team instead of webber they would have won at least 5 championships.

    Wow, that's a big statement. The 02 Sac team had arguably the most talents in the entire NBA. That team was DEEEEP.

    This is going to be kind of weird, because this Rockets team is kind of an aberration.

    Teams that come to mind:

    1. The Lenny Wilkens's version of Seattle Supersonics. No dominant post player, Sikma was a center, but more of shooting one. Nor did they have any dominant scorers. Still, they did have Gus Williams and Dennis Johnson who were pretty good solid players.

    Personally, I don't think these teams were nearly as talented as the Lakers. These Supersonics didn't really light people up offensively, but they played great defense.

    2. 2006-07 Golden State Warriors

    3. 2005-06 Phoenix Suns without Amare and Nash, then put Brooks in place of Barbosa, but with much better defense

    The 09 Rockets = 09 Rockets :)

    We will be the first kind. Then the following years maybe teams can compare to us.

    We are Red Nation

    If anybody elbows Brooks in the nose, I'm throwing a beer.

    This team is starting to remind me of the Mid 2000's Suns more than anything. It bothers me to see them play this well, because Yao doesnt fit in here at ALL. If only we could turn McGrady/Yao into Johnson/Bosh.

    That would be sweet. I like Yao but he does not fit in this offense and he can't be counted on to stay healthy!
