Houston fans yelling the "N" word at Martell Webster

Wow... Houston fans sure lack any class. I understand the "Portland Sucks" chants. I mean, during the course of the season, we in Portland chanted "Kobe Sucks" and "Garnett Sucks" as well as chanting "Lets Go Blazers" so loud that you couldn't hear the Rockets introductions in any of the playoff games.

But, really? You gotta get all racial nasty on a guy who didn't even dress for the game. That's low.

I remember a certain incident when a fan in Orlando was shouting racial slurs at Dikembe Mutumbo. That guy was booted from the arena and his season tickets were revoked. I call for the same thing to happen to those classless fans in Houston who felt the need to do this.

I've been waiting

for someone to post this, I was shocked when I heard about this. Not cool. I’d start at the 30 minute mark of that podcast actually.

Here is my Playoff mode signature, that I thought up myself: "Just Do It".

I have a few issues with this

First, acting like Portland fans have never done something like this is stupid. Second, of course no one condones it. And frankly, I barely believe it

it's not a truth/lie thing

it’s a truth/lie/false thing. He could simply be wrong.

I find it difficult to believe, as well.

Exactly

And even if it didn’t happen, to act like there are no racist Portland fans is hilarious

You don't know Portland

The chance any Blazers fan would do this is near zero. If they did, I think I would be among the 99.9999999% of the crowd that would immediately go after the person…

wow. complete 180 from team

after listening to the pod cast of this incident.,I have to change my opinion on being a fan of this team. I`ve commented on other threads Here about the class of your team. Too bad it doesnt extend to the fans. Ugly doesnt even begin to describe how our team was treated by the fans of houston. too bad ,the rockets deserve better .
