Have the Rockets ever made you cry?

[jacoby]

Throughout your tenure as a Rockets fan, have you ever been so frustrated with this team that you've shed tears, or even flat out bawled?

I remember going nuts when the Rockets lost to the Mavs in game 7 back in 05. I turned the game off in the third quarter and was literally breathing steam. Don't think I cried though.

[New Generation]

Uhm....can't say I have....

[TriCkz]

Lol.. Im going to love reading this thread.

[conquistador#11]

not really. as much as I love this team.. Maury has never paid my rent.*

97 when Stockton hit the 3 to beat the rockets in the WC finals. I knew that was the end for championship contention for the rockets. They have never come close to being that level either..

Honestly, I think I've teared up in complete frustration or anger. The back-to-back Jazz series.

Kevin McHale had me in an epic mood for the last couple of games this season. He is a joke of a coach, and his decision to go with the Scola-PatPat lineup when we were killed on the boards made me lose it.


I guess being a fan plays with your emotions haha

[QdoubleA]

Got pretty emotional when Yao wouldn't go to the locker room in the Lakers series, no tears tho, because I have testes.

[fallenphoenix]

i teared up during yao's retirement speech

[Dr of Dunk]

When I was a kid and Moses Malone left, I think I did. When the UH Cougars lost and Akeem didn't win the NCAA Championship, I did, too.

[CantBeRight]

I cried when Yao went down against LA in 09 playoffs.
I knew we had a special team that year if everyone stayed healthy we would win the championship.
It all depended on Yao staying healthy, and when I saw him go down and immediately hold the knee I knew we weren't going past LA.

And to this day I still do not doubt that if Yao was healthy throughout the playoffs, we would have won the title.

At the game when I was 8 years old in 1997 when Stockton hit the game winner

[n8dagr8]

[Air Langhi]

Stockton 3.

[htownrox1]

I will admit I did cry. I got teary eyed when I watched this live:



He wanted that series so badly.

Can't say I've cried but have.

[BoomTown]

when Okur got that offensive rebound off of a free throw late in the fourth quarter of playoff game

awkward middle school age...

[houston#1]

When I was a kid, I cried a lot when Rockets lost. I dont cry much now because Rockets havent make playoff a lot of times but I was mad and almost cried when Rockets lost three times in playoff during T-Mac and Yao era. By the way, I cried when Texans lost in playoff this year.

[solid]

I cried each time we won a championship; tears of joy. What a feeling! My greatest sports moments. You guys may never have such experiences under this regime. Likely won't, but positive change will come eventually.

Jesus Christ crying over a game? I don't know whether to be bemused or impressed.
