The Houston Rockets have jumped out to what some would call a surprisingly positive start. Surprising because they began the season with a road heavy schedule, had several new roster members, a new head coach and a star playing a completely different role.
No matter the season. No matter the sport. No matter the league. Every year, the sports world witnesses a team that exceeds expectations and becomes the Cinderella story of their league.
Normally, the Cinderella title is tagged on a collegiate team who unexpectedly wins a national title. Yet, this adjective is the only word to describe a stunning run by a professional team.
