You know your city is hurting sports wise, when the Rockets can get rolled by 39 points in a playoff game, at home no less, and it's not even the most embarrassing performance by a team in the city's history.
Seriously, it isn't.
Houston sports history has been so bad that you can't rank its embarrassing moments until you sort out what's worse: chokes, collapses or no-shows.
I know the Rockets' disappearing act – we've aptly dubbed it the "Colossal No-Show" – against the Spurs is fresh in your mind, but unless you're a newcomer to town, you have seen worse. Oh yeah, much worse.
I'll count 'em down for you.
