Great season. Awesome players. James was amazing. Dwight is a dominant force once again. Trevor is again underrated. The injuries sucked. The players got that second seed, but we also owe a lot to JB. Thunda knows my pain, and he knows the clueless nature of a certain man on our team. I wish we had my staff pushing the Rockets along. That's ntot arrogance, but I work with some incredibly intelligent basketball minds. The guys that stay up all night just to make sure we stop certain things from happening. We make switches...we don't die by allowing the same failures again and again. I hope Morey reconsiders his approach. I love the stat analysis, but we've gotta get a good PF who can shoot off the pick. He's coming, as a tweener. James will have to continue to develop his passing and defense, and shot selection. Love this team. Unfortunately, it will look very different come October. Pablo...you're the main. Corey...you're the man. Josh, you played well but you didn't quite get your props. Dwight is my silver lining and I hope he continues to improve. The unhappiness has been building. You have to find ways to make a dominant big man successful. You don't leave him the way we did. I'm irate as a coach. We really dont understand how dominant Dwight can be. good season...can't wait for this summer. We're getting a prize.
Yeah great season but man Harden completely disappearing in 2/5 games is concerning... Still need a better option at PF depending on DMO's health next year and Bev as a starter just doesn't excite me much anymore. Need a dependable 3pt shooter who can create their own shot, but am not too keen on losing Ariza unless as others have said it gets you LMA.
Uhg... totally dead inside at the moment. But I am definitely proud of this team. They all came together focused this offseason which is something we haven't seen in a long time. We do need to do a better job with limiting minutes to prevent injuries. Beverly and Dmo would have made a world of a difference this offseason. Dwight is not getting any younger and neither is Harden. We need legit back ups. Harden needs another distributor and handler and Dwight needs a legit backup bigman.
Tweener? Millsap? Codman, come on, you tease. I realistically want Danny Green + Llull + Scola. Pipe Dream is Gasol + Lowry some how.
Whilst disappointed the seasons ended in missing out on getting to the final, realistically I'm wrapped with this season. For me personally, it was also my 1st time in Houston and being able to watch Houston live in the flesh, also at the Toyota center - are things I'll never forget. Even better I got to see a team that made the WCF. These are memories that will last with me forever.
Spectacular season. Winning division with significant injuries. Earning the second seed. Winning the first two series. Showing historical grit in the comeback against Clippers....and loosing to the eventual NBA champion GSW. They lost to the best team in the NBA without two starters. There is no shame in that at all. This season validated DM and McHale...and must have been so excruciatingly painful to all their haters on this forum. Go Rockets!!
