    Great season. Loved watching Parsons, Patrick Beverley, and Asik grow to be studs.

    Harden is great and we just need another superstar to pair with him.

    Jeremy Lin....no comment.

    Can't wait for Rox to trade Jemery Lin, for different reasons.

    Those Rox fans are hilarious.

    well... I guess we overachieved, got some good pieces going forward, and we can spend the offseason debating over possible pf trades...

    The future is bright. We have a superstar, and tons of talent. I can't believe we took OKC to 6!!

    Love the team. We gota get Harden help.

    Funny we wasn't getting calls tho and the touch foul refs gave them to the thunder.

    The last time I felt like this Yao went down in the Lakers series and Brooks took us to 7 games.
    The difference being this isn't a dying star...we are on the rise.

    Hardens mediocrity lost this series, but he is going to be great. Can't wait to see what surprises Morey has for us in the offseason

    I am glad we came back from 0-3 and put up a good fight, looking forward to the summer!

    This series more than anything shows the value of:

    1) a defensive stud at center
    2) a wing stopper
    3) the uselessness of a traditional 4 (hello 3 PFs sitting on the bench)

    Great season...thank you Rockets...from James Harden, Jeremy Lin, Omer Asik, Chandler Parsons, Francisco Garcia, Patrick Beverley, Carlos Delfino, Greg Smith, Terrence Jones, Thomas Robinson, Donatas Motiejunas, Aaron Brooks, James Anderson, and Tim Olbrecht.

    Thank you to our ex players...Patrick Patterson, Toney Douglas, Marcus Morris, and Cole Aldrich

    Thank you Mchale, Sampson, Bickerstaff, Finch and Cooper

    Thank you Keith Jones

    Thank you Daryl Morey

    Thank you Les Alexander

    This team was not supposed to be..and wasnt supposed to do anything. We were destined for the lottery...and then fortune smiled once again... I am proud to be a Houstonian and a Houston Rockets fan. Go Rockets...cant wait for our offseason moves...:)

    PS.And yes one name was excluded...was never a Rocket and probably wont be...

    Great season Houston! Wasn't expecting much out of the playoff series against the finalist of last year but we gave it a go. Rest up this offseason, let Morey tinkle with the roster, and we will be back stronger next year!

    Like to see the following:
    Develop the PF's or get rid of them
    Run some plays that aren't ISO's or pick and rolls
    Asik - better hands and post moves
    Lin - more movement on the offensive end
    Lin and Harden - cut out the TO's
    Parsons - left hand and a go to move
    Get some picks for the draft.
    Get a second star [Tier 1 star not Josh Smith, etc.]
    Resign role players for the right price.

    I am expecting the Rockets to break the 50 win barrier next season. Pretty reasonable goal IMO.
