The 2013–14 Houston Rockets season was the 47th season of the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA), and the 43rd based in Houston.
 The season is best remembered for acquiring All-Star Dwight Howard from the Los Angeles Lakers.
 With Howard teamed up with team captain James Harden, they gelled their first season together, being named as starters for the 2014 NBA All-Star Game.
 With Howard now as co-captain, the Rockets improved on last season and finished with a 54–28 record, finishing 4th in the Western Conference.
 They met the Portland Trail Blazers in the first round, but the presences of Howard and Harden were not enough as Houston fell in six games, thanks to a Damian Lillard series-clinching three pointer in Game 6.
The Houston Rockets are an American professional basketball team based in Houston, Texas.
 The team plays in the Southwest Division of the Western Conference in National Basketball Association (NBA).
 The team was established in 1967, and played in San Diego, California for four years before being moved to Houston.
 In the Rockets debut season, they won only 15 games.
 However, after drafting Elvin Hayes first overall in the 1969 NBA Draft, they made their first appearance in the playoffs in 1969.
 After Hayes was traded, Moses Malone was acquired to replace him.
 Malone won two MVPs during his time in Houston, and he led the Rockets to the conference finals in his first year with the team.
 He also took the Rockets to the NBA Finals in 1981, but they were defeated in six games by the Boston Celtics.
 In 1984, the Rockets drafted Hakeem Olajuwon, who led them to the 1986 Finals in his second year, where they lost again to Boston.
 In the next seven seasons, they lost in the first round of the playoffs five times.
 They won their first NBA championship in 1994, led by Olajuwon, who won Finals MVP.
 They repeated as champions the next year, and Olajuwon won Finals MVP once again.
 To date, the Rockets have not advanced to the finals again.
 The Rockets missed the playoffs from 1999–2003, and did not make the playoffs again until after they drafted Yao Ming in 2002.
 Since then, the Rockets have had a winning season in all but two of the next 14 seasons and, led by James Harden, advanced to the conference finals in 2015.
The 2016–17 Houston Rockets season was the 50th season of the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA), and their 46th in the Houston area.
 On June 1, 2016, the Rockets named Mike D'Antoni as their new head coach.
 The Rockets retired the number 11 of former center Yao Ming in February 2017.
The 2008–09 Houston Rockets season was the 42nd season of the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA).
 Despite a season-ending knee injury to Tracy McGrady, the Rockets breezed past the Portland Trail Blazers in the first round, but could not defeat the Los Angeles Lakers in the second round.
 Dikembe Mutombo, who entered his 18th and final season, was injured in Game 2 of the first round and announced his retirement, ending his 18-year NBA career.
 Besides losing Mutombo, Yao Ming missed most of the second round due to a foot injury that required off-season surgery.
 Before the season, the team acquired Ron Artest (now Metta World Peace), who was known for his violent temper.
 Following the season, Artest signed as a free agent with the Lakers.
 The Rockets would not return to the postseason until 2013.
The 2001–02 NBA season was the 56th season for the New York Knicks in the National Basketball Association.
 During the offseason, the Knicks acquired Shandon Anderson from the Houston Rockets and Howard Eisley from the Dallas Mavericks in a three-team trade, while signing free agent Clarence Weatherspoon.
 Entering the season, the Knicks were without Larry Johnson, who retired during training camp.
 After a 10–9 start to the season, head coach Jeff Van Gundy unexpectedly resigned in December, explaining he had "diminished focus", though he would return to coach the Houston Rockets in the 2003–04 season.
 Don Chaney took over for Van Gundy.
 Under Chaney, the Knicks suffered an 8-game losing streak in January and went 20–43, on their way to finishing last place in the Atlantic Division with a 30–52 record.
 The Knicks missed the NBA Playoffs for the first time in 15 seasons.
The 2007–08 Houston Rockets season was their 41st season in the National Basketball Association and 37th in Houston.
 The Rockets won at least 50 games for the second straight season and made the playoffs also on the back of a 22-game winning streak, the fourth longest in the history of the NBA.
 The Houston Rockets came into the 2007–2008 playoffs without Yao Ming, who was still injured.
 This injury contributed to the Rockets' elimination by the Utah Jazz in the first round (2–4).
 The team brought back Steve Francis, but his return was short-lived as he was active for only 10 games, starting 3 of them.
 It would likely be his last season in the NBA.
The 2003–04 NBA season was the Rockets' 37th season in the National Basketball Association, and their 33rd season in the city of Houston.
 The season saw the Rockets move their home games from Compaq Center to the new Toyota Center.
 During the offseason, the Rockets hired head coach Jeff Van Gundy, who is best known for his tenure with the New York Knicks, and signed free agent Jim Jackson.
 Midway through the season, they signed free agent point guard Mark Jackson.
 The Rockets finished fifth in the Midwest Division with a 45–37 record, and qualified for the playoffs for the first time since 1999 as the number 7 seed in the Western Conference.
 Second-year star Yao Ming and Steve Francis were both selected for the 2004 NBA All-Star Game.
 However, the Rockets were eliminated from the first round of the playoffs by the Los Angeles Lakers, who added Karl Malone and Gary Payton to join Shaquille O'Neal and Kobe Bryant, in five games.
 This also marked Francis' only playoff appearance in his career.
 Following the season, he was traded along with Cuttino Mobley and Kelvin Cato to the Orlando Magic, and Mark Jackson retired.
The 2006–07 Houston Rockets season was the 40th season of the Houston Rockets franchise in the NBA.
 The team ended the regular season with a 52–30 record and a 3rd-place finish in the Southwest.
 The Rockets faced the Utah Jazz in the playoffs, losing the series in seven games.
Mark A. Jackson (born April 1, 1965) is an American former National Basketball Association (NBA) player and coach.
 A point guard from St. John's University, he played for the New York Knicks, Los Angeles Clippers, Indiana Pacers, Denver Nuggets, Toronto Raptors, Utah Jazz and Houston Rockets in the NBA in a career spanning from 1987 to 2004.
The 2014–15 Houston Rockets season was the 48th season of the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA), and the 44th in the Houston area.
 The Rockets finished the regular season with a 56–26 record, the third best in franchise history.
 They also won their first ever Southwest Division title and first Division crown since 1994.
 The Rockets beat the Dallas Mavericks 4–1 in the first round, advancing to the Western Conference Semifinals for the first time since 2009.
 They beat the Los Angeles Clippers in seven games after trailing the series 1–3, advancing to the Western Conference Finals for the first time since 1997.
 They became just the ninth team in NBA history to come back from such a deficit – and currently the only franchise to do so twice.
 The Rockets' season ended with a 1–4 loss in the Western Conference Finals to the Golden State Warriors.
