    Guys stop asking for this man's prediction! He's been wrong before so it shouldn't matter anyway. Just enjoy whatever happens in game 5!

    And I totally agree with you, DeAleck. I've always thought that this young team reminded me of the Thunder a few years ago. We've got a solid group here and they will only get better.

    Not really. Making the playoffs and getting humiliated in the first round is as bad, if not worse than not making it. The Jazz did it last year and got nothing to show for it. Building on inspiration is so much better than humiliation.

    I am so impressed by how tough the Rockets played in this series. We went toe-to-toe with the best team in our conference, and the second best team in the league. And we are the youngest!

    I agree. He is getting his points but we are making him work hard for them.

    For all the crap that most of us (including myself at times) have given McHale over the season, he has coached a very good series in my mind. He has made the right decisions with rotations, and he is keeping his players motivated and not letting them give up even when down big like in games 2 and 3. So big props to him there.

    One other thing I would like to say is that this series will be huge for us going forward. To play first round against the best team in your conference for the forseeable future is something that is a great learning tool. We can come away from this series and know that we need to build our team to beat this team. There is no better way than to see it for yourself first hand in the playoffs. The experience is invaluable and this team will be much improved for it.
