PrintWell, hello SBNation... !
We are the Dream Shake. You may remember us from such blog posts as "Why the Houston Rockets will win the NBA Championship this year" or "10 Things we hate about the Utah Jazz" or "Shane Battier Knows White People"...
Beginning today, Lee and I are now members of SBNation and will be bringing you commentary and all sorts of interesting blogging material relating to the Houston Rockets. Yes, you can expect many references to Yao Ming and/or Luis Scola as being "badasses" -- which they are. We're big fans.
And with the addition of Ron Artest to the Rockets, you can be certain there will not be a lack of blog-worthy material for us to write about on a near-daily basis. At least, there should not be an excuse!
So, welcome new readers (and loyal readers from the before-time) and join us as we document what should be the season that gives Houston its first major sports championship since 1995! (No, the WNBA does not count. Nor does MLS.)
GO ROCKETS!

Welcome Aboard, Fellas
Really excited to have the Rockets so well represented on SB Nation. In Morey We Trust.
Looking forward to a day when being a Texans fan doesn't mean that April is the highlight of my season...
Welcome to the fold
Hakeem will always be my favorite player of all time. As a matter of fact, the only reason I’m not a Rockets fan today is because they let him finish his career in a Raptors jersey.
I chose to support the Spurs because I admired the Admiral way back when – then moving to SA only cemented my decision. In anycase, I still cheer on the Rockets when we’re not playing eachother.
Good luck in the up coming season.
Oh yeah – fuck Dallas.

I’m glad you guys are on board, I’ve been a fan of your work for awhile.

A good friend of mine used to say, "This is a very simple game. You throw the ball, you catch the ball, you hit the ball. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes it rains." Think about that for a while.

Well, I'm a Jazz fan, but
I have to say, congrats on the move here.
I have to ask though, why so much hate for the Jazz?
Why not?
I believe the propensity for French soccer flops (or OU’s punter for that matter) are right up there in the list of reasons.
French soccer flops?
France is one of the few nations the Jazz don’t cover.
As for OU’s punter, are you talking about the game this year? I thought it was hilarious the way he acted on that (I was rooting for Texas, but that was just awesome to see flopping show up so big in football).
Oh, plus, there are better teams to hate. You know, teams that have actually won NBA championships. Like the Lakers. Or the Spurs.

Here is how they figure it.
Take our hate for the Rockets, divide that in half and that is how much they hate the Jazz.
Wouldn’t you hate the Jazz if they had pwned you two years in a row? I know I would.

this cannot be repeated enough
Utah beat the Rockets the last two years… yes.
How many rings did that get them? Zero.
The Rockets beat Utah 4-1 in 1994… on the way to a ring.
Rockets beat Utah 3-2 (game 5 in Utah)… on the way to another ring.
sometime before that, Utah hero Karl Malone found time to knock up a 14 year old. Yeah, I think I’d rather be a Rockets fan .
1994/95
I was like 8 back then. No one cares what happened then. Congrats on the wins, but they’re ancient history.
It’s a “what have you done for me recently” world, and sadly… both teams have failed to do anything.
The Jazz have one-upped the Rockets the last couple of years, but nothing has come of it.
Here’s to taking down the Lakers & Spurs, and meeting sometime after the first round of the playoffs.
that's the problem
Yeah, but said statutory rape/knocking up took place in Louisiana…
which might not be a problem there either… but…….
Greetings
SBN has needed a Rockets blog and I’m delighted to join in. I’ve been a Rockets fan since the move from San Diego. My favorite team was 1977-78: Moses Malone, Calvin Murphy, Mike Newlin, John Lucas, and Rudy T.
Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. If they get mad, you're a mile away AND you have their shoes.
It's about time
I’ve been waiting for a Rockets blog. ClutchFans is too annoying.
