    Since China hates us now, who can we finesse out of money now?

    Maybe Congo and use Dikembe Mutumbo as the spokesman? Maybe [Sub-Saharan] Africa as a whole? They seem to be an emerging sleeper. Lots of underrated financial opportunities, especially in Nigeria. Houston also has a large Nigerian immagrant population. Maybe Sergio Lull/ Spain connection? o_O

    they should focus on Houston...1 of the largest cities in the nation, but they neglect it to pander to China at every opportunity

    as u can see, China will turn from friend to enemy real quick over a single tweet...Houston’s been there from day 1, and will continue to be

    India obviously. The world's largest democracy and will surpass China's total population in another 10 years or so.

    India of course is a huge market, if you can make them love basketball somehow.

    Lets teach India how to play hoops, and population is close to China, and no commies there in power.

    America's team :cool:
    Houston's team

    They did wear "Los Rockets" jerseys once upon a time.
    Guess the money wasn't that great.

    maybe there’d be progress if we hadn’t gone from the Houston Rockets to the China Rockets who just so happen to play in Houston :eek:

    so many people rock retro ketchup and mustard at the games, but we could never get updated versions of that until now...nah, let’s get a jersey looking like a different version of the tablecloth at your local Chinese spot every year

    if it was Houston themed, it was ugly BS like this
