Trevor Ariza was the Rockets' go to guy in the fourth? Yeah. The Rockets have come a long way since the YM-TM era.
Remember when lackadaisical was never accepted? From tmac bummed out knee Toronto 1 game to Harden's every game.
yea i remember when rox had star sg and c and always lost to jazz in 1st round, this team has come a long way indeed
remember when tmac got shut down by rookie swingman yakooba diawackoff? and in the same game in overtime, rafer immediately shot a 3, ball bounced right back to him and he shot another 3 and still missed? yerah, thank god thosse days are over. one small baby step rockerts took from that, might be going back soon btu we'll see
remember when the rockets reached the nba finals with a losing record of 40-42 led by malone, murphy and rudy t, and coached by del harris?
remember when jvg ran plays where 'no 3pt shot bonzi wells' was a 3pt option? jvg showing his offensive coaching prowess i remember that, but then i got old and cranky and rockets virtually stayed the same, which is first round exit or winning record but no playoffs, with the 2nd round exception which of course was without tmac and both centers and of course against the mighty lakers. basketball gods were at work that post season
one more.. remember when the stro show got cancelled? remember rox@lakers and jvg put 6'9 240lbs pf scott padgett on kobe and kobe said "you're going to put scott padgett - a power forward, on me and im not going to score?"
