    Two badly blown calls down the stretch end the Rockets chances of the playoffs.

    Well, we knew the playoffs were really lost anyway, but it sucks to see it happen like that. Somebody needs to tell Jack Neese he should join his son on The Grind and quit blowing games for the Rockets.

    Isn't this the same crew Rudy got fined over???

    I think Jack Neese had to be hanging out with Shawn Kemp before the game

    The Rockets playoffs hope might be done and for all practical purposes the season is over but I hope the Rockets can still pummell the T-wolves when they come to town. I just had to listen to the T-wolves' commentatories hamming it up with "YOU ARE THE WEAKEST LINK...BYE BYE." After the Rockets' score was announced during the T-puppies Grizzlies game. :mad

    What does Minny think they are going to do? Win a title? It will be another first round exit for them, and there will be no playoffs for them next season.

    That really was pi$% poor by the referees. In fact, some of the worst I've seen. To make it worse, that out of bounds call was originally correct, but it was over ruled!

    Why didn't we go 2 for 1? We had the ball with 39 seconds left. Should have shot it at about 30 seconds, and made sure we got it back with time run a play. Terrible play calling in my book.

    The thing I hate most about this, is that the chronicle will probably not even mention the 2 bad calls, and just say the Rockets played without any intensity. Sure, they didn't show alot of intensity in the beginning, but they deserved this win with the kind of effort they put out there for the rest of the game.

    Oh well, the game was all about pride. It wouldn't have mattered too much.
    Timberwolves: 86
    Grizzlies 52

    Dallas, Utah and Minnesota earned their playoff beths. No sense in b****ing about why they don't deserve their playoff status.

    Maybe we'll win the lottery [​IMG]. Then I'd be glad we didn't make the playoffs. Of course, it totally sucks unless that happens.

    Jack Neese holds grudges a little too easily.

    Derek Richardson and Bob Delany were the referes that got Rudy Tomjanovich fined.
