    The most annoying thing about this game is that the Bucks came into it with a 5-game losing streak. I'm watching that game and thinking how the **** does this team lose 5 games in a row? Oh, I know...they decide to play out of their minds against the Rockets. :mad:

    I know they're a young team that will have some ups and downs, but with all that talent there's no way they should be going on 5 game losing streaks. Makes the loss look worse than it really was.

    Well, you either believe in Harden or you don't. I remember back when the Rockets almost traded Hakeem for Rony Seikaly. Yes, RONY ****-ing SEIKALY. Because people like the previous poster think that a team cannot win with one player who has flaws. They thought the Rockets would never win a championship with Hakeem, NEVER. He was too foul prone, and not enough of a force offensively to carry our team to a championship. OMG, those were the days!!!

    It's almost hilarious looking back on it now. Harden is getting similar criticism and people in this city don't really care about the facts, same as yesterday. It doesn't matter that Harden has been playing with an injured squad, or that his team has played the toughest schedule so far, or that the Rockets have played more games than any other team in the association so far this year, or that the Rockets have played more games on the road than any team this year.... Nope, none of that matters.

    Rockets will never win a championship with this regular season disappointment. Never mind the fact that most of the so called "experts" had us pegged as a .500 team right now, and 7th or 8th seed at best.

    LOL at all of the fake fans out there right now.

    Inconsistent shooting will be our demise if we can't clean up the sloppy ball handling and turnovers. This is the same old song and dance once again. I am already prepared to see it happen in playoffs once again unfortunately. Sloppy, careless turnovers are so frustrating.

    Stay Calm. Rockets just being our generous selves and doing other teams a favor. It is good to give back to the NBA community.

    Rockets instigated the Heat 4 game winning streak. And now will start a Bucks winning streak.

    Why don't we just keep going to the Ryno step back?

    I've been a member on this site for 5 years, but I have been visiting the site since 2009. I know fans panic fast, but I think it's time to point them out and shut them up.

    Tick, tock, tick, tock.

    As always this dude shows up after a Rockets loss. It's like that annoying mosquito you keep swatting away but keeps coming back.

    Hey Mavs fan, do us a favor and stay away from CF.

    Newsflash:

    Rockets: 34-14

    Mavericks: 15-29

    You suck at math so let me explain. Your Mavs have less than half the Rockets Wins and more than twice the Rockets losses. Suck that :cool:

    Ryno should've came off the bench last night. Dekker played with tremendous confidence in his first start and matches up well with the athletes that Miliwakee has. It would've dictated a better pace. And Gordon's toe is obviously effecting him more than he is leading on. The allstar break is approaching but I still think a wing and a young defensive minded center would be great adds. In the grand scheme one loss on the road when it was the 6th game in 9 days doesn't mean anything but these guys need some days off and since they won't be getting any Morey needs to get some more bench help

    Its called exhaustion. The rockets have played the most games in the league, most of those are road games. Too many plane rides aren't good for blood flow and recovery. The league should either cut down back to backs or at least have the decency to schedule the second night in a city with close proximity so they can use luxury buses instead of all the flying because its clearly taking a toll on these guys. Harden hasn't been the same since the New Year's eve game, he looks tired at the tip but he's still damn near a walking triple double. Even though the Bucks are an inferior team they are young dumb and full of ***, they can run for days and they caught us at the right time. Don't just watch sport with fan eyes

    Well. At least the Cavs and Warriors both lost to teams worse than the Bucks. Problem is both those teams will come back and destroy their next opponents.. Will we?

    There's only a few of them. But Rockets ain't one of them.

    Milwaukee is an under-performing team. They have some solid players from what I see. You could see how good they could be. I'm not sure if they are close to turning a corner or what. This is one of those games where they clicked against us. And, we could not stop them for the most part. I was seriously frustrated at some of the buckets the Bucks were getting. Rockets got beat....fair and square. I don't buy they were tired this game. The Bucks made them play harder than they wanted to apparently. I do also believe some of these match-ups for the Rockets aren't good.

    Warrios - Can Score on anyone
    Spurs - Pops
    Cavs - Lebron

    Rockets - Will be enjoying the finals while reclining on the couch with a cold one. Or reclining in the leather chair while watching Destiny on stage one and Cinnamon on center stage. Don't know which.
