@JonathanHernon @AdamSpolane They traded Horry for Sean Elliott and the trade was rescinded after the rockets had cold feet about Elliott’s medicals. So, uh, yeah…the internet would have told you that too.

@AdamSpolane Learn how to use the internet Adam. The rockets lost in the conference semis in 1993. They won back to back titles and were swept in the semis by the Sonics and then traded for Barkley.
English
They literally traded Robert Horry the next season
Derrick Lyons@d2derrick
I remember Horry’s rookie season and we lost a tough series to Seattle. We didn’t make a panic trade, we let them learn from failure and drafted Cassell and won the title. This year we did the opposite and passed on Cedric Coward. Just awful!🤮

@ByVarunShankar (But seriously, if Durant is back for game 2 I’m sticking to my Rockets in 5 prediction as I don’t think the lakers can shoot like that again)

@ByVarunShankar Varun learning something real Rockets fans already know today about “rockets twitter” lol.
English
No, I'm saying that a lot of people on social media who are incentivized to hunt outrage left out key context in favor of a more incendiary reading.
Stone explicitly says that his post-injury worry did not show up in the team's performance (1/3)
Roosh@RooshWilliams
@ByVarunShankar This sounds like you explaining to fans that they aren’t smart enough to understand the context. Not a good look. The context: The Rockets clearly have deficiencies. Stone said what he said after the deadline. The Rockets subsequently made 0 moves to address any issues. The end.

Whom should the Rockets want to face in the postseason: Lakers, Nuggets or Timberwolves?

@Chron_MattYoung @StephStradley Friend checking in here. In our pickup games, I stretch longer than I actually play. And apologies to Kelvin Sampson, but I’m not diving on the floor or generally hustling even.
English
@StephStradley Dude. My friends keep trying to get me to show up for Sunday morning pickup games. I’ve told them I’m no longer built like that. This now serves as proof.

Almost left my phone in the Uber at OKC airport dropoff. Had to sprint at most 30 yards to catch up to the car as he drove off and popped a hammy at about Yard 25. Phone secured, but I'm questionable for Sweet 16 with serious leg discomfort.

@TheGhostOfHope I saw this four times in the theater and have watched it at least another four or five times at home. It’s incredible.

The fact the film waits till 2 hours in to use the Rocky theme is one of the best things ever.
Brandon Streussnig@BrndnStrssng
The guts of Ryan Coogler to write and pitch a Rocky movie to Stallone at 28 years old and then get it made and have it be an immediate all timer is something I think about a ton. Guy is really, really special

@VanLathan Rooting for Lane Kiffin and the team that brought in the guy who claimed he killed bin Laden. Republicans are being too hard on you!
English
@BradeauxNBA I do think he often fails the eye test defensively. Ive lost count of how many possessions he forces another defender to help because his guy has gotten past him. That said, I kinda agree with starting him anyway. Need to see what he’s capable of.

@McClain_on_NFL And that’s one more reason McNair and Bob Lanier were misguided.
English
Before and after Bob McNair was awarded his expansion franchise, he told me on multiple occasions how he wanted his team to be called the Texans. He wanted the Texans to forge their own identity, build their own legacy and create their own history. He wasn't interested in the Oilers' name or colors because those belonged to Bud Adams and his family.

@WerderEdNFL Has been weighs in on topic about a place he doesn’t live. Cool.

NEW: "We are very disappointed in Judge Hidalgo's actions..." | RodeoHouston has just released new details on the dust up with Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo, which resulted in her removal from the Megan Moroney concert earlier this week.

@VDOOZER Waiting to watch the new season. Started season 1 with my 16 yo daughter a few weeks ago. And she loves it. Been fun to rewatch with her.
English
#Scrubs Thanks for watching (if you did). Cryptic talk: Yes, he will be in a bunch more eps. Yes, they will both also make appearances. And sorry if anything disappointed you, but not all JD's dreams can come true...

How anyone who wears a badge stands beside this mayor, much less risks their life for him, is beyond me.
Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani@NYCMayor
I’ve seen the videos of kids throwing snowballs at NYPD officers in Washington Square Park. Officers, like all city workers, have been out in a historic blizzard, keeping New Yorkers safe and cars moving. Treat them with respect. If anyone’s catching a snowball, it’s me.
English
@RooshWilliams @brandonkscott You def had KD’s respect the other week. 🤣🤣🤣
English
@DBDR @brandonkscott I don’t give a shit. I don’t play 2K. I didn’t say I’d be a better coach. Laugh all you want. I know my shit and that’s why I talk ball with NBA legends and get their respect …you don’t.
English
Three minutes into the game and the Rockets have just about as many turnovers (5) as they do points (6). Not an ideal start against a Jazz team that's already been penalized for not trying this season. #AllFire
English
@RooshWilliams @brandonkscott Guy who made a conference finals in 2K is a better coach than a guy who learned from Popovich. I get being frustrated with the inconsistency on offense but this is among the unintentionally funny posts I’ve read today.
English
@brandonkscott This is the approach/mentality of a HS JV coach. It's embarrassing. Fairly certain I know my Xs and Os and court diagramming better than him.

Craig Ackerman is drawing laughs on the Rockets broadcast for saying he used to be able to dunk. Do we believe @ca_rockets or is his mother an astronaut?
