Exactly my point. Anybody can be beaten on any given night.

They're probably closer to the 76ers in talent.

Hey, the Jazz are 1-11... who did their only win come against?





It's pretty hard to get into a dick measuring contest when your team is 4-6.

Rockets fans are pretty funny. I really don't remember them being so loud before this year, besides port and boom's bitch asses.

Rockets fans aren't loud. Pelicans fans get all butt-hurt and Rockets fans respond.

There wasn't too much talk last year because the Rockets were under the radar.

But they get Dwight and Pelicans fans throw bitch fits constantly.

There are more Pelicans fans coming into threads hating on the Rockets than there are Rockets fans discussing their team.

It was the first time this season they didn't struggle at any part of the game and looked like the team people thought they could be.


Was describing the Pelicans' last game, right?

On Pelicans Talk I've seen threads made about Dwight. I've seen threads about Anthony Davis vs. Dwight.

The Rockets obsession Pelicans fans have is

The difference is that the Rockets still manage to win even when they struggle.

I was at the Toyota Center last year for a Rockets game...standing in line for a beer when I see a group of fifty fans walking in a group screaming:

"WHO DAT SAY GONNA BEAT DEM ROCKETS? WHO DAT"

They are a weird fanbase, to say the least.

So they use a chant that originated in New Orleans, and that is weird?

Anyway, you are probably referring to the Red Rowdies. They get free season tickets if they show up and dress goofy act crazy and loud.

Grantland is pretty horrible. They try to he edgy and hip-hop and to the beat, but they suck.



Glad it's not just me who sees this.

So it isn't weird in New Orleans, but it's weird in another city.

Got it.

Not really. The Celtics are only 4-6 in their last 10 games. Think of them as the Eastern Conference version of the Pelicans.

You rocketards realize that it was one of yall who brought up the Pelicans in this thread, right?

FWIW I don't think I've seen Mattz post in any NBA thread on the MSB this season without explicitly or implicitly mentioning the Pelicans.
