    The end was disappointing mainly because Rockets exceeded all expectations and raised the bar. But perspective. Very few expected the Rockets to win 65 games or take the GSW to 7 games with a great chance to win if not for CP3's injury, and some ref intervention.

    I am proud of what the Rockets achieved this season

    We have majority of the right pieces. Matter of fine tuning in the off season, getting rid of Ryan Anderson and making another title push next season

    Congrats Rockets fans on a great season!

    They lost because they didn’t have Chris Paul in games 6 or 7.... there will be changes but they likely win the series with a healthy Chris Paul.

    Agreed,

    It was memorable and great, but it will be a sour taste in my mouth for years to come unless we win a chip. Its not that we lost, thats fine, its how we lost.

    We always say you live and die by the three.

    Tonight, the three killed the Rockets season.

    It sucked. I really, really, thought it was our year.

    Nothing but love for these guys. They poured their hearts out and took the champs to 7 games. We were one CP injury away from an even shot at the finals. Amazing defensive work and hustle. The shots just didn’t go down.

    I don’t want to hear whining. Not every great story has a happy ending. This was a heroic performance.

    Completely agree with you. However, I do not really think the pieces matter when the nba can actually take outcomes into their own hands like this.

    I've got to agree with you. No one gave us a chance against GS. The fact that we had decent leads in both game 6 and 7 make this series loss that much harder to take. Of course there is the 'what if' CP3 doesn't go down. Who knows what happens. Painful. Sucks. In the end I'm proud of the way the guys competed. GS is one of the best teams ever and we took them 7 games. Add some key players next year and go after them again!

    For what? I have no regrets. You, on the other hand, sound very childish.

    Well said. Tremendous season.

    It'll hurt for a long time knowing this was probably our best chance at a ring.
