    This team can't win when they should but wins when they shouldn't. I love the Rockets but this is borderlining epic collapse, especially if they lose tomorrow....This is GOD Awful to watch.:mad::mad::mad::mad:

    If they lose tomorrow?

    I wouldn't be surprised if they don't win another game this season. Even the Hornets games will be very tough.

    Just when league was talking about them again. Just when they're earning praises.

    Epic collapse, it is.

    That is what I have been watching the last two weeks the Hornets are making it tough on teams playing them. The Rockets even if the do find a way to win tomorrow will have a tough end to the season. The team reminds of a baseball team when the whole team goes on a batting slump in a season, right now the team is in slump shooting the ball.

    This what I hate about the team in past few years, just when you think they are on their way to good times they turn make a 180 and start going the other way.

    If they suck this bad tomorrow, they are going to get booed. Mark it down, booed on their home floor, going to be embarrassing.

    this is like watching the braves and cardinals keep failing at the end of the season, only for one of them to squeak in.

    "them boyz is nervous."

    Eric Gordon is back and the Hornets are playing inspiring basketball now that they are away from Stern's hands.

    If we lose tomorrow and Phoenix wins we will be in the lottery. Everyone says we have an easier schedule than phoenix because they have 5 tough games to close the season. But SA is the last game and they may be resting everyone.

    We on the other hand have 2 tough games against Miami and Dallas plus Golden state and the Hornets twice but the Hornets have won 4 of their last 6. Two losses were against SA and LA of which they played LA tight down to the wire. So I would be surprised if we win both. Which means if we lose tomorrow the playoffs are in serious jeopardy and that's not even counting Utah's push.

    Choke City is when the Rockets had huge leads against Phoenix in the 94 playoffs during games 1 and 2 in Houston , but blew it.

    The Houston papers labeled them "Choke City". Then in game 3, Clutch City rose from the ashes.

    Looking at the attendance rates, I hardly think anyone even gives a **** at this point.
