I was watching the Rockets game last night, and got to thinking. How can a team so undermanned be able to compete this hard - what could have been had McGrady and Yao stayed healthy and bought into the Rockets system? One thing led to another - which got me thinking about the NBA's Greatest "What If's?" What if Grant Hill didn't get injured, what if Jordan didn't have an ...

As of Nov. 9, the Houston Rockets and Dallas Mavericks are atop the division with their respective records standing at 4-2. In what has been one of the most competitive divisions in recent memory, the Spur, and Hornets find themselves struggling to remain afloat. Eventually both teams will find their games as the season progresses, the Spurs more-so, but the complexity of the division would alter with a new ...

The offense was crisp, Aaron Brooks sliced through the defense, Luis Scola awoke in the second half, and much like the Blazers game, the Rockets fought off every run their opponent tried to make.

In 2007 in an interview with Stephen A. Smith, Rockets Guard Tracy McGrady claimed it was "his team, and how far we go is ridin' on my shoulders," most famously finishing off his comments proclaiming "It's on me!" Those words couldn't be any more accurate coming into a Rockets season filled with low expectations. It will be McGrady's team, and how well he plays will determine the Rockets success, or ...

With Yao Ming out for the season, and Shaquille O'neal headed East to team up with LeBron and the Cavaliers, the center position in the West is wide open. It's time to break down who will seize that opportunity, and claim that crown as the best center in the Western Conference. The general guidelines to become an NBA All-Star, are stats, team record, and frankly, popularity. The starting spot has ...
