rockets are playing some ****ed up ball...I don't know what their strategy was but they definitely aren't playing the way the typically play.
While it is ok to look back history and think positives, there are differences... In 1994 playoffs when Rockets blew the first two games in Houston..... 1) That Rockets was the better team. They built massive leads in both games and Suns were outmatched. The Rockets simply blew 20 point lenads in the 4th quarters. This current team has not dominated the Blazers at any point in the two games. 2) That Rockets team had Hakeem who dominated the game even when the Rockets lost. Harden, this team's MVP, is MIA. 3) That Rockets team was smart. This Rockets team is dumb. Really really dumb. 4) That Rockets team played DEFENSE all the time and rebounded when they had to. This team does neither. 5) Rockets had the best player in that series in Hakeem. Blazers have the best player in this series in Aldridge.
thank you. last time I checked it's not a 2 game series. I have a knot in my stomach that I haven't felt in a long long time and I f-ing LOVE it. I miss this. f-ing bring it. This is what it is all about. first of all bandwagoners please GTFO. right now. next I would like to remind you all that the rockets have never waltzed through anything and the whole choke city and joy was born from pain. Pain much deeper and harder than this. MUCH DEEPER. This is nothing. 3-1 against phx laughs at you. Lots of little kids on this site that you can tell have NEVER been there and have no concept of championship, reality or anything. It's funny how immature. Even game 6 against knicks in finals - olajuwon barely got a block on starks or we might not have even had a game 7 or our first championship. Rockets had to take clips to 5 games in 1993. The CLIPPERS!!! We were down 3-1 and came back against phx and barkley no less. News flash- they had to lose 3 games to get to that. Bear in mind this was after years and YEARS of heartbreak at hands of celtics in finals, and the sonics making me cry in 1992 when we lost to them in 7. You people have no memories it makes me f-ing sick. NO FAITH IN JACK SHI**T. Running down richmond high fiving after our first championship I remember saying "FINALLY" There is a certain joy that comes from agony then overcoming it. In this day of 140 characters and 6 second vine videos many of you simply won't understand what I'm talking about. I get it. Maybe it has to get worse before it gets better like it did for olajuwon and company year after year before FINALLY breaking through. Maybe this team doesnt have it YET but I will be damned if its OVER now and I will be damned if you think we are done.. or that you have it all figured out after 2 games. Act like you've been there.. and embrace the pain( I love it) and f-ing believe a little.. or you are just a joker yourself newbie to rockets and the world. BRING IT.. BRING PAIN OR GO HOME
Rockets had a coach that had heart and the team reflected this. Rockets reflect their coach now just as well too...clueless.
I don't see the heart on this team other than Bev that the team in the clutch city/championship years had.
Me and los were adamant to point out this layup and three point game is built to work in the regular season and d legue but fail in the playoffs. Live by the three die by the three. Teams do not give you anything in the playoffs. Every shot is contested and even our star shooting guard cant get to the rim. We need a playmaking point guard. We simply cant create any offense at all and for some reason dwight and asik setting screens is an automatic turnover and a foul.
what will the haters and bandwagoners say if we win the series? compelling negativity and overall hate around here. I love it..and when we come back and win series - You haters will feel like true jackasses that you are.. OR I get to be wrong as a REAL rockets fan. Good thing its a 2 game series. Either way you have already lost haters.
