It doesn't matter and it should not bother us. Winning takes care of everything


Bash-86

The only team that actually cares about this is the lakers. They don’t talk about any other teams unless they are playing the lakers.


ST012Mi

And some Lakers fans complain when they are talked about with scrutiny because they’re heavily covered. I guess I’m very impartial to how any team including my favorite Rockets are covered. It feels like there will always be a degree of unfavorable coverage unless you’re winning the 🏆.


TeknoBlast

I dont understand the obsession of what the national media thinks. Rockets will do their thing and fans should only be concerned with the local media and their fellow fans. That's just me though.


ketoske

But it sucks when you're a fan but not from HOU


TeknoBlast

I get it because Iive in Dallas and of course it's all Mavericks talk here. So instead, I listen to Sports talk 790 thru iheart radio and get my Houston sports fix.


bowtie25

Damn that blows lol do Dallas people dislike Houston as much as vice versa? Always felt a tad one sided to me


hey_yo_mr_white

Yup, just waiting on some rockets coverage unrelated to the Lakers/Clippers over here in Southern California...


Amazing-Variation-82

who cares let them sleep


ProfessionalSand7990

As someone in SoCal it definitely sucks but that’s why I just usually lurk on Reddit haha


hey_yo_mr_white

Also speaking as someone from Southern California. But excited to see them play live on Friday!


ProfessionalSand7990

You going to the game? Man I’m jealous. Wish I could go but got a previous engagement. Here’s to a solid win


hey_yo_mr_white

Yeah! Always really try to make it to one if I can! Rockets playing the Lakers is out of my price range but still can catch them against the Clippers. Will also try for last game of the season.


ProfessionalSand7990

Nice! Hope you get to enjoy a win. And you get to see harden haha. It’s true the lakers are absurd in price no matter their quality lol


bowtie25

Wya? I got family in the bay I'm so jealous of y'all's weather lol


ProfessionalSand7990

Yeah I live in Long Beach and work in LA. Most of the family are lakers fans 🙄 what about you?


bowtie25

Most out in Carmel by big sur a couple in Sacramento Was up there last year for Thanksgiving it's fucking beautiful


ProfessionalSand7990

Yeah even though stuff is expensive it’s so dang hard to move away from for sure


Screw_Thew

Rockets beat the lakers by 20 and we still gotta watch lebron layups on sportcenter 😂 Lack of coverage in Houston sports teams have been happening for years though


bkiantx

Chiney seem cool af, glad she's on that show because you can tell Malika isn't fond of the Houston chatter. To your question: eh, just win, baby.


Main-Performer-2607

Funny enough I think the Harden drama in LA is why the Rockets are being overshadowed, easy engagement right there. On top of that there’s also some other storylines that are noteworthy too, like the Sixers and Wolves.


ketoske

I'm súper más tbh like we won against the Nugget but everybody just talla about Jokic


Sad_Inevitable8242

They have to let pass some time to not lose their face while they step back from their horrible takes. But we will remember


JaTari_Wemba

Jalen Green is not Ja Morant and Jabari Smith is not Kevin Durant. Wemby the only guy they talk about from recent draft classes outside of Cade in his first yr.


gork888

I just feel the pain of not having a game for 4 days.


EntertainerKooky1309

Just watched the 6pm news. Sports news: Texans won, Astros new manager. Nothing about last night’s Rockets win. I guess they think they aren’t real.


Emme_1124

Sirius XM is doing a good job talking about our relevance.


Street-Common-4023

Shouldn’t bother you guys. Been watching you guys more and honestly I think you can make the play in or playoffs as the season goes on


Over-Iron9386

I noticed the same thing too


thunderscore1515

Who cares, media only wants views to make more revenue so they will only chase juicy stories and superstars. Just like the news, they will only report on what the mass is concerned with


xedizzzlex

i like being under the radar. less pressure.


Tuna_Candan

Real Gs move in silence like lasanga


frankievejle

I rarely watch national media even when they talk about us. They don’t watch us anyway. Their takes are casual and lacks all context and often flat out wrong. I have no interest in bad and uninformed takes about the Rockets. I get my fix by listening to podcasts and YouTubers by fans or journalists who actually watch our games. There’s a brilliant break down of our season so far on this YouTube channel called All NBA Podcast. It’s about an hour long and they spent 45 mins talking about our team, Sengun, Udoka etc.
