I have NEVER been as disappointed in a sports team as I am with the Rockets right now, not even the Oilers who let the Bills with a reserve qb stage the biggest comeback in NFL playoff history. That was pretty disappointing, but this is worse. The team plays 82 games to get to the playoffs and instead of elevating their game, which is standard operating procedure, they go the opposite direction.

They not only look incompetent, TMac looks like he doesn't care. The whole team looks like they are anxous for the offseason. I am utterly shocked at the level of their play and the cavalier attitude expressed by some the players especially TMac. I am not sure that even winning this series will make me feel the same about them. Win, lose, or draw, I want a new team: new players and a new coach for 07-08. Losing is not the issue, I want players who give their all, never quit, and fight to the bitter end. I want players who care as much as the fans, who want it, bad and are willing to leave it all on the court. I love guts, heart, and determination. Eighty-two games and then this, inexcusable.

Come now, solid. Let's not make a wild exaggeration. As bad as the Oilers losing to the Bills after their huge lead at the half? I think not. Pretty damn bad, but not that bad. I still take the Rocks in seven!

I think Rockets better comes out with fire in their eyes because the Jazz is so confident now. I hope they laid everything on the court tomorrow and fight for all the rebounds. Make sure they handle the ball well and make good passing. Go Rockets let show those moron ooops mormon who has the heart.

Youre just as blind as the coach you support! None of the players brought in by CD are being played right now. So its not HIS fautlt. That is the first mistake, JVG only plays those he is comfortable with, i.e., J-Ho (sucks), Skippy (Awful), Luther (garbage). This is the same trash he put on the court last year!!!!

DONT BLAME CD!!! All of the players management brought in have been alienated by Van Dumbass. Bonzi, Snyder, Spanoullis, Novak... These are player who could've very well helped us if the had been getting PT all year. JVG doesnt know how to develop players. He should have been harvesting guys all year. Yao and T-Mac are gonna win you 50 games (Although T-Mac is heartless) You need players around them who can help win the tough ones. JVG's X's and O's has absolutely NOTHING to do with the success of this team.

We should have saw this coming when Van Dumbass brought over Charlie Ward and Charles Oakley to begin with. Van Gundy is the problem. His offense is too complex (just come down and dump it to Yao or give to T-Mac). Screw that foul prone pick and roll stuff. Dream never did that to such a high degree, it tires Yao out. Get only ONE guy on the same side as Yao, Van Dumbass crowds the court. UHHHHHHHGGGGG!!! This is frustrating!

I still think that Yao tried and cared very much. Just too much out of his comfortable zone. Too many turn overs, although half thanks to the refs. But he sure tried. A little bit slow footed, but sure fighted. I think that for both Rockets and Lakers benifit, Rockets should trade Yao to Lakers for Odom plus some one else (not Walton though), since T-Mack is not tradable if Rockets lose this series. And fire JVG also, so stubborn and so limited, although a decent knowledgable older school coach.

You're ready to blow up the team -while we are tied up with Utah????

Come on man- cowboy up - we will ride this series out for victory. Just do not nut now!

I don't know...Passing up Vince Young to keep David Carr only to tcut him at the end of the year was very dissapointing....Not to mention watching Vince Young in the Pro Bowl his first year....smh....

The Rockets must come out for Game 5....its time to start hitting buckets...because the rockets have shot enough bricks to build the Houston Dynamo's a recreational center...come on rockets!....

Win or Not..Fire JVG

Are you out of your mind? Trading Yao to the Lakers straight up for Odom (even with a filler) would push the Lakers over the edge while significantly downgrading our team. How many times have you seen a team that trades away their star player ends up being on the short end of the trade. The Lakers have almost 4 picks in next year's deep draft. With Yao and Kobe, together, plus a rebuilt athletic team, they will become a contender in the West.

Fock!!! I still believe, but man, this sucks...

I said if they lose the series, then ... If they win, I dont think JVG will be fired. And I think that they (T-Mac and Yao) will be given one more year to work it out. Btw, I am still have faith in their winning of this series. I just thought, T-Marc will work together better with Odom, and Yao will work together better with Kobe.

Head9 · Apr 30, 2007

T-mac wears a Mac, lol

YaoFanatic · Apr 30, 2007

T-Mac came to Houston to play with Yao, not the other way around. Yao probably would be happy with playing with Kobe in such a trade, much more so than T-Mac with Odom. But the whole Yao for Odom trade is moot because they are not equivalent, Lakers might have to throw in Kwame and Luke too.

I hate Van Dumbass, really can't agree more. If rocket offers contract to him again, I will be very very disappointed

I was cracking up when I watched that interview with him...since it was like 70 degrees in SLC that night...I was wearing short sleeves and shorts and this guy is sporting a trench coat? I was just hoping he didnt go on a shooting rampage later...although as long as he shooting accurately that might not be so bad...
