    and by over hyped, i mean we came into the season with too HIGH of expectations. can't blame anyone cause after we got artest, who the hell wouldn't be?

    It's good that everyone was optimistic! But because of that, every loss is going to be a heart breaker just because we pretty much expect to win every game. I think it would've been a lot easier if everyone just expected us to lose. Then we wouldn't be in this depressed of a mood.

    With that said, tonight's game was inexcusable! I dont care much for the loss but holy mother, this one of the ugliest games I've witnessed. Talk about false hopes after seeing us own the 1st quarter too. I dont care if this was just ONE game, this is not how we should play any day.

    I am still a Rockets fan. Lets all remain optimistic and just hope this was an early April fool's joke.

    Appreciation shout out to Brooks and Landry for showing up tonight!!!

    Every year we overhype this team. It's simple we can't expect much from this team when our team isn't healthy. T-mac is playing but dude is far from healthy. Shane is out. We overhyped this team.

    Even after preseason and the first 3 games, I was hyped up about Brent Barry. But he's been a total no show the last 3 or 4 games. I have a feeling Adelman might go back to Luther over Barry pretty soon.

    Please no Luther. I'd take wafer over Luther. I kno he has NBA expierence but I cant stand watchin him with the ball in his hands. I just think bad pass, turnover, or jacked up shot. I kno he hits theim sometimes, but he makes too many bad decescions to be on the court. I'd take a washed up barry over Luther

    Probably, but we're playing well under our ability. We'll find ourselves. Whether that be a lock down defensive team that scores just enough to win, or an Adelman style offensive juggarnaut with crazy ball movement.

    Everyone, coaches and players alike, were saying it'll take time. I'm going to give them the benefit of the doubt.
