    Heartbreaking loss yesterday, but not as heartbreaking than Stockton's straightaway three in 1997.

    Anyway, one the negative side, we're out of the playoffs. We had the road to the Western Conference finals ironed out. Golden State? Come on, we could have handled them! Fact is, we couldn't get past Utah.

    Seeing the Spurs-Suns game today, I realized the Rockets are not ready to go deep in the playoffs yet. The spurs and the Suns actually have role players WHO MAKE SHOTS WHEN NEEDED (you listening Juwan Howard?) Heck Okur's 2 three pointers in game 7's end game just killed us, and you have to appreciate that Utah was the better team then. I hate teh Jazz, but props to them.

    Well, shake it off, fix whatever can be fixed and get ready for next year. Van Gundy or not it doesnt matter. As long as Yao and T-Mac are more focused, and we get more help off the bench, the Rockets are a few steps away from contending and not merely pretending.

    Just got done watching this game after a decade and its crazy how the rockets--and the whole NBA have changed since then. A line of rafer-tracy-shane-chuck-yao spending the majority of their time on ISO plays and being beaten on hustle.

    i think that in the light of the current blistering success the blunders from the past look bright as well

    That Jazz team was our weakness and we really lucked out having play them multiple times in the playoffs. Also sucked ass cause they were dirty, p***y ass floppers and their fan bases were trash people.

    Yao couldn’t guard either of them. Doomed us.

    I was at that game, probably the most disappointing loss I've ever been to. We just couldn't get a damn rebound those last few minutes smh, that was the game right there.

    Rafer was a terrible basketball player.

    I love Yao but can’t help but think that Tucker would've died on the floor than give those 3 consecutive offensive boards to Boozer/Harpring.

    Damn. That video makes me appreciate James & CP.
