Last year around this time, I was sitting around Houston, trying to find something fun to do. If you have ever been to Houston, then you understand the lack of “things to do” especially FUN things to do. The Rockets were entering the Playoffs without Tracy McGrady and the city was knelt in prayer that they could get out of the first round. I was attending a bachelor party at one of Houston’s finest strip clubs “Baby Dolls” and on one of the flat screens was the blowout of the Portland Trailblazers by the Rockets in Game 1. I spent that night glued to the TV unaware of all the nakedness around me, amazed at the Rockets performance. Once I got home I needed an outlet, some way to declare my appreciation for how proud I was of the Rockets. The decision to start a blog, seemed like the way to go, and a year later here we are. There are so many basketball blogs, some good, some bad, but all have something to say. On the blogroll to the right you will find some of my favorites. Heres to another year, of The Truth Sports, and thanks for reading, whoever you are.
I remember it like it was yesterday. The Rockets trading away Rafer Alston, the bane of my existence. He had not been the quality point guard that teams need on a consistent basis. Alston was notorious for long range heaves and constant yapping at Yao Ming. But sitting on the bench with so much potential was Aaron Brooks. He is as tall as you, weighs the same, you feel like you have something in common but you don’t. As soon as Alston was gone, Aaron was given the keys to the car and told to get the Rockets out of the first round AT LEAST.
