    I've been watching espn every since the NBA draft and free agency began. Can someone tell me why are the Houston Rockets featured on EVERY highlight to an opposing team getting scored on? In some cases shown twice. Makes no sense. I've noticed it because it's been literally every damn move a team makes. Damarcus Cousins, La-bron James, pg13, etc etc. Did anyone else notice this ****?

    Maybe because ROCKETS DEFENSE has gotten so Good that star players had to do highlight worthy moves just to score against us. or MEDIA CONSPIRACY.

    Would be weird for them to show Lebron highlights against the Rockets. That would make zero sense, given the fact most normal ppl would reach for playoff highlights of James.

    I suppose you might show a highlight of Paul and Lebron in the same play, just to make mention of Houston not getting Lebron. By why else?...except Media Conspiracy.

    The solution is to stop watching ESPN.

    I spoke to someone at ESPN, apparently they do this intentionally then get beers after work and go on clutchfans to get a laugh. They are the worst trolls!

    What was the reason for showing Lebron vs the Rockets? Did they really not show playoff highlights of Lebron?

    And then, right before they start talking about the Rockets - i.e.; any draft or discussion, its commercial time.

    Maybe since you're so used to seeing to the Rockets colors, you notice them more than you would other teams.
    Like how you can always notice your kid's voice in a crowd.
