    It's ridiculous how much crying you've been doing on here for the past week. GET OVER IT.

    Don't blame the refs. The Rockets played a good game, but Lillard made an amazing shot. Give credit where credit is due. That last play was very poorly defended. Blame McHale and his matchups if you want to blame somebody.

    Unfortunately we showed up too late in the series. If the Rockets team we saw in game 3 and above showed up in game 1, we would've won this series.

    I agree with OP. They outplayed the Rockets since the start of the series.

    The last defensive possession epitomized the Rockets defensive/coaching failures as a team.

    Liliard and Aldridge was the difference, they were too good.

    Is what it is. This Rockets team is not a finished product. Portland is also better than what media give them credit for. Lillard is an animal.

    I agree, we were lucky to have Howard.

    This team is very inconsistent. Maybe it's due to inexperience, maybe we are too young. But hell we need a better coach.

    No comments on the refs, they were just very bad throughout the series.

    The first round exit is on us.

    I felt this way about it from game 1... Our fans need to wake up and smell the coffee... A little objectivity never hurt anyone...

    Lillard is a very good player, but there is a reason he didn't light up the rest of the league like he did to us. Poor coaching, poor defense, poor strategy, poor LUCK. That should be the Rockets motto.

    I still can't believe how fast Lillard is. That's one of the greatest shots I've seen in awhile. Quick release, moving fast to his left, just unreal that just happened.

    I don't think they deserved it...i think the Rockets are the better team. I think the two times they won at Houston are a fluke. And Houston didn't use Asik in the lineup.

    It isn't the Blazers fault we didn't use Asik early. It's coach Mchale.

    Rockets are the better team, but McHale is the worse coach

    Harden was ineffective all series and even when the Rockets won, he seemed out of it.
