Everyone will be eating crow when the Rockets reach the finals this year. We'll switch it on again and come back to our Linning ways.
As said the worst part is Dragic and his future. Really want him to be the starter that he deserves to be yet not under these circumstances.
yeah, teams like Wizards, Bobcats, Hornets, Raptors, etc. deserves good players, because those teams are soo much better than the rockets.
What are you talking about?? I responded to the OPs post... The YOU responded to my post! Who is trolling here? Tell me when I said that Im okay with how the team is playing. Look at all my posts and show me an example of it. You find one and ill be glad to "shove it"
If you can't put it together and win the games you are supposed to win, getting blown out in almost all three cept a little luck and not showing the effort and poise you need, you do not deserve it. This team is good but misses the heart and do or die mentality the championship teams and maybe the 07-09 teams had.
so are you saying that only good teams deserve good players? only OKC, bulls, spurs deserves good players?
That's not it at all. This team is missing the talent any of those teams had. You have overpaid guys like Scola (and Martin) who were effective players before the NBA changed the officiating and stopped calling those charges for Scola. Dragic is not worth more than $7 million/yr. No way he puts up those numbers for an entire season. I'm glad we didn't overpay for Hayes. Why anyone wants to see this team get swept in the playoffs is beyond me. I know everyone wants to see this team make the playoffs now, but when/if they do every loss stings. It will suck when reality sets in and the team is bounced out of the playoffs with nothing to show for it in a talented draft.
I support this team, but I would have supported them more this season if they were losing. I consider it charity, but Les is too blind to tank. I get the feeling he just wants to sell the team, but nobody is looking to spend $475 million on a starless NBA team with no prospects that have all-star potential.
Exactly. You all sound like a bunch of frontrunners. I live and die with this team, if you don't then you're not a real fan. No one is happy with this teams performance right now, but I bet all of you were jockin this team hard last week.
turnovers costed us this game. game went downhill after faried sh!tted on courtney lee's dunk attempt (typical)
That was actually a foul, but refs wouldn't call it because it looks so nice as a block. Lee hold the ball on its right side and Faried came in from Lee's right side. Of course he couldn't hit only the ball; he hit also Lee's hand that was holding the ball. No one could hit that ball on its left side as that would require arms almost twice as long as Faried or anyone else has. Hm, maybe a chimpanzee could do it? Anyway, that's one of the differences between Europe and NBA refs. Euro Refs are calling that move 90% of the time. NBA refs aren't for the sake of the show. In years of watching and comparing NBA to Euro I have to can say NBA puts on a much greater show, but your refs suck.
Les Alexander is one of the "poorest" owners in terms of overall net worth, maybe the poorest. Les actually has to make income FROM the team. Itd make sense to sell the team and come out with some gains. But in that same vein, with the Rockets having poor attendence, he SHOULD be like Sacramento and New Orleans and franchises like that looking to save a buck and tank and shed future payroll to attract buyers. But he DOESNT do that. That might speak more of his willingness to compete under the league deadlines rather than it appearing he's wanting to sell
+1 for that... Dragic and Parsons deserve better And without this 2 players HOU can "force-play" Lowry to be a "superStar", wich i think will sink Rockets even lower
Then you would be wrong. The first amendment protects your speech from GOVERNMENT punshment. Clutchfans could ban you for anything if they wanted to.
Clutchfans, the prime example of BIRG'ing (basking in reflected glory) and CORF'ing (cutting off related failure) after every game.
