.....is tonight. But... I remember, Mothers Day 1994. Choke City. Down 0-2 going to Phoenix. And I remember how that turned out. I still bleed Rockets Red. Clutch City till I die.
Yao's injuries were worse. I can't even feel bad for the team given their lack of effort. They walked in thinking they're better than they are. Too much nonchalance.
Thanks, I think the board needed the reminder. I know I did. Watching the team play like this is like pulling teeth for me. But I'll keep pulling teeth and tune in for game 3 because that's what we do as fans.
Difference is that this team plays a gimicky style, has poor coaching, and is mentally weak. We seriously just saw one of our players foul with 30 seconds to go...I have never seen that in a playoff game. That should you you the state of affairs.
Yao's injury vs the Lakers was one of the saddest moments, but I agree this is the most disappointing. We matchup so well vs Portland. To lose the 1st 2 games at home, that is really bad...
Foul wasn't as bad as the play drawn up after that. Harden and Lin both had NO IDEA what was going on after a TO.
you even hear the announcers saying it, it's a freelance offense. meaning McHale doesn't draw any offensive plays. I'm absolutely sick to my stomach. The blazers players laughing at the rockets, we are getting punked big time and can't do jack about it bc LMA is playing like Jordan.
We had the mvp plus we knew we blew two huge leads. These games we never had a huge lead. Plus our bench sucks Jeremy lin can't tie cassells shoe laces
Honestly i dont even know where to begin. I have always been afraid that our loosey goosey style of play would mean an early exit, but i thought we had enough talent to at least get out of the first round. Where was the defense tonight? Aldridge played like karl malone these past two games.
The silver lining is that Dwight Howard is learning and benefiting from better health and training from Hakeem. The Rockets can win this series, but they have to win game 3. Moving forward, I wonder how much it would take to persuade Hakeem to coach the team. Clearly, he is making progress with Howard.
Howard stepped up, we should cheer his ass in game 5 if the Rockets somehow find a way to win a game. Harden doesn't deserve any fans.
I guess you have mentally blocked Stockton's jumper after Karla bearhugged Clyde. That is a natural human defense mechanism to deal with intense pain.
Absolutely. This team has the roster talent to not only be elite team, but to win a championship. The only reason we are not either is all but talent. Naturally, we look to coaching amd mental toughness. WE ARE HORRIBLE IN THOSE 2 AREAS. Heart of a Champion? We are anything but.
Gotta give credit to Mchale. He's throwing his job away with no inhibitions letting Aldridge go 1 on 1. That man is CONFIDENT in his game plan, wins be damned!
I know a team has gone down 0-2 on their home floor and won the series at least once. Mavericks vs Rockets in '05 when the series was literally rigged.
