    Year One. Calm down
    This did not end like we wanted but .... This is their first year together.
    They exceeded expectations by all measures.

    As much b!tching and moaning that happened with hire last summer
    Practically no one can say they expected this year
    And would have laughed at the idea of making it to the second round
    And lose to the #2 seeded Spurs team

    Everyone can scream hate be pissed fine... You should be
    But let's not act like ANYONE said we were contenders going into this season
    NONE OF YOU MFERS SCREAMING FOR HARDEN AND DANTONIS head predicted this season

    Even those spreading rumors that have b****ed and moaned after every loss
    And quiet as church mice after every win *yea dadakota the treasures rumor spreading is bullshit*
    If proven I apologize but just saying that **** to discredit a person is crap and unworthy

    I am pissed too.. The lack of effort hurts the most
    But....I am grabbing some perspective.....this is year one.
    YEAR ONE.... Simmah down nah

    This is year 4 of Harden ******** the bed in the playoffs

    The "year one" excuse is over, It was year one when he shot horribly against OKC, it was "year one" when he threw the series against Portland, "year one" when his team bailed him out of the Clippers series.

    no more year one's

    hey i mean, there's no denying that most thought we would be 8th seed 1st round exit. the only reason that we are upset is how bad we looked at home in game 6.

    c'mon guys, we need to keep building around harden. I mean who would you rather have now, lonzo ball?

    I didn't expect the Rockets to beat the Warriors or the Cavs, or even San Antonio for that matter before before going into the 2nd round, but quitting on the city, was the last thing I expected from our MVP candidate.

    All true , but now where do we go ?

    How did this season help us going forward ?

    True, we are better at the end of this year than we were at the end of last , so there's a positive trend .

    I am not disappointed in the overall outcome because the road to being the best team is the greatest challenge . But tonight did serve as a nasty reminder of how far we have to go. I'll admit , it was easy to get caught up in the moment and feel that we had a shot ( before the exhaustion debacle in game 5) but to lose how we did tonight showed the immense gaps in focus and mental toughness we have to make up
