    Didn't the cyberx dude said that harden & Howard didn't want him ?

    I mean I would love him here , I agree with you rondo can set plays & make Lillard played defense ... Lillard knew pat wouldn't do **** only played defense & get SOME buckets .

    what bout beverley?

    no offense. but regardless of how good you are defensively, you're not stopping all-star/all nba caliber players (unless you're harden i guess in the playoffs, sigh...i still believe in him though).

    what limits rox is defensive schemes, rotations, and game-plans. none of which we had. that's got a lot to do with effort and coaching.

    we also lost cuz our offense is iso happy in the 4th. that's not even a bad thing. but nobody moves. and its pretty predictable.

    personally, we don't need anyone else to beat portland. we need better accoutnability on o/d and keep a damn lead.

    Shut up Reggie Miller you Blazer lover.

    LOL at Portland - got false hope and basically got swept.

    They won 1 more game in the 2nd round than us!

    I agree, if Pop was coaching the Rockets you damn well know we ain't losing to Portland. When you have a bench and Portland doesn't? I rest my case.

    I understand the notion of wanting to keep continuity, but there is no reason for McHale to be here any longer. You cannot keep a man who was so SEVERELY out coached by Terry fu**in Stotts!! No disrespect to Stotts who's a decent coach, but as a Rockets fan, I was truly embarrassed at McHale's ineptitude.

    Makes me sick seeing the Blazer fans slob all over the Spurs' collective knob on reddit.

    I could never cheer for a team that ousted the rox.

    Everyone says we didnt have a chance to get past first round says Portland coach and players. Welcome to Mchale's coaching in which every coach outplays his coaching.

    Rockets made Blazers like a championship team...
    Spurs made Blazers like a Chinese basketball team....

    F....k the Rockets....

    Morey, do you still think midrange is the worst scoring way? you know basketball, right?
    McHale is like an idiot among nba coaches, but still get his job...
    Les only wants beautiful offense. He only wants to sell his tickets and fools Rockets fans.
