    Most important game of the year and these guys treated it like a preseason game.

    [​IMG]

    *except Tilman punted on the season (in the name of LTS)
    *and saw Harden score 2? 3? points in the final 8 minutes of game 5 and saw Steph Curry(who was invisible for 2 1/2-3 Q) take over in the 4th

    I just found my people, my fellow Rockets fans and it’s already over :(. It’s been fun while it lasted. Unfortunately I’m not an Astros or Texans fan so I probably won’t be back for a while. Keep the faith, the Rockets will rise again. I’ll try to stop by from time to time. Bye everyone.

    A real force in the paint defensively had ZERO blocks...ZERO with small guards going to the hole and beating him like a yard dog..he's disgusting. hate we gave in to him regarding his contract...he is vastly overrated. You take away the PNR and he's a zero...no post up game, can't make a shot at point blank range and definitely can't block out.

    The energy from the start of the game was off.

    We have no flexibility to significantly improve this team. We are what we are and what we are is not good enough. Not by a mile with GSW in the league.

    It's the same thing Mad Max, Dream, and those guys had. The heart of a champion. Some players just have it and some don't. Analytics can't calculate that.

    Honestly of all the current rockets players, only PJ Tucker really has that fire in him. The rest don't have it. You can see it in their body language.

    "Just wait out the Warriors and wait until Durant leaves."
    "They'll come back down to earth."

    So much for that plan. :D

    Ain't happening with Capela IMO...he needs to be trying to develop with another team.His fastest motor is his mouth.

    This is also an acceptable solution. IDK what team would want that contract after seeing him get exposed.

    He’s damn near Ryan Anderson like lol

    I feel like the Rockets got lucky. When analyzing the team in competitive play there is all kinds of incompetence other quality teams don't have an issue with. The middle pack to top tier teams have the truly balanced complete teams with decent size at the forward positions or they have truly stunning veteran athletes like the warriors.
