After making if out of the playoffs for the first time in twelve years while their “best” player sat on the bench, and then beating the Lakers after their “second best” player joined him, the Houston Rockets are now considering whether to execute a player after each playoff game in order to “maintain the momentum heading into the finals.” When team officials were asked why they were considering execution instead of something less drastic like a “serious injury“, or perhaps even just a rotating series of “DNP- we’re a superstitious bunch“ decisions, they mumbled something about it being “Ron Artest’s idea, and I’m sure as hell not going to tell Ron he’s wrong“, before wandering off in search of a blindfold.
