    I know it's popular topic of conversation on this forum over teh years what Nick, Max, Stephen A, Skip, Colin, Shannon, Jalen and the rest are saying about us several mornings per week.

    Just wanted to check if there's any takes, hot, cold or medium on us of late.

    Right, what’s there to talk about. No one cares about you when you suck.

    Lol we don’t get that luxury no more. Nets vs Rockets will be the next time we get a segment on a talk show.

    the Rockets are irrelevant now...nobody talks or cares about us anymore

    if fans were allowed at the arena at full capacity, TC would look like it does at tip for the entire game, because this team sucks and many aren’t gonna bother spending money to see franchise player Wall, washed Boogie, or hustle role players

    welcome to the life of an irrelevant franchise, it’s been years since we’ve been down in the basement

    I haven't heard much talk.
    I've heard a lot giggling though.

    When I hunt for news on the Rockets, 60-70% of it turns out to just be about James Harden.

    They know he doesn't work here anymore, right?

    The Rockets don't have a new identity yet.

    The Rockets have no Identity. Even the clutchfans forum board is headlined with Hardens picture still. We are nobodys right now. Aging injured stars. A load of mediocre 1st round picks. A young unproven coach. A polarizing strange owner. Brand new GM. We won't be making any kind of playoff run for the next 2-3 years minimum. Everyone got OFF the ship and us fans are left holding the bag.

    Exactly what I came in here to post!

    Nothing, nadda, not a peep.

    Now that they’ve used their propaganda machine to get Harden out of here and to a larger market team we are no longer worth discussing.

    As much as they tried to act like they didn’t like James, we’ve been on national TV consistently for the past 8 years and during big ratings slots such as Christmas Day because of the talent and greatness of James Harden.

    John Wall and Victor Oladipo are sadly irrelevant despite potentially intriguing comeback story potential.

    The Rockets are essentially irrelevant to non Rockets fans now. Media and not waste time talking about them.

    With half of squads contracting the Covid around the league, declining viewership, and a game more rigged than ever to maximize profits who cares? As far as I'm concerned it's a scrimmage YMCA game that is out there on the court every night regardless of what team it is.

    Tillman was attaching his image to harden around the debate show to promote his book but now he is irrelevant as is his book.

    Hot Take shows proves that the majority of fans are complete suckers
    And that they'll continue to fall for the same tricks over and over again like Salmon swimming upstream and getting eaten by bears

    Charlotte Hornets are better than us (and arguably more interesting as well)
