It's because they haven't put together back-to-back solid performances against good opponents in a long time. You'd have to go all the way back to the home win blowout over Portland and the OT road win at Memphis for that. And those games were 4 weeks ago. (Not to mention both were missing their starting power forward from the lineup.) Suffering through a month of mediocrity and half-assed efforts is enough to drag down the spirits of even the most diehard fan. Believe me, I want this team to succeed. They may not be title contenders without first acquiring another playmaker, but they're better than this.
Are you really going to complain about Dmo, who has been stellar for us this year, having an off night against the best team in the league?

We probably wont even make the playoffs.^^^ Thats how bad Les gets it for setting the bar at another dirst round exit
the post i replied to disputed dmo having a bad game against the warriors. there was no mention of this year or other games. aside from that, i will lodge a complaint now about your posting here. in general it suck, no offense. and honestly i try to avoid your posts whenever possible. unfortunately this time you had replied to me directly.
Really hoping we blow them out. It would be good for our confidence against a competitive team and on the road. We're the Swag Champs, we got to get that swag back! :grin:
Calm down. Dwight's been listed as probable every game since his return. James has also been listed as probable for a few of them. They're going to play.
He was listed as probable for a Rockets home game a couple weeks ago. So was Ariza. They were both in the lineup that night and looked fine.
it's just a bruise for harden which im not concerned about. it's expected with how much he sacrifices his body. now dwight on the other hand....
Extremely winnable game. Someone besides Beard is going to have to show up though. For what it's worth, I think someone will. But lately, you never know. Rockets 102 Suns 97
Suns take this. I don't trust this Rocket team at all. And even if the Rockets win, there's nothing to be excited about.
I really hope they play. I'll be at the game and it would blow to be missing them. I want to at least see Harden play. Since he went to ASU, I'm sure he wants to ball out for his first fans. Wondering where he's going out after the game... maybe I'll try to meet him :grin:
