ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Jazz 5/2/2008 (Playoffs Round 1, Game 6)

Injuries kill us year after year after year.

 

it is sad but true....

hopefully yao+mac can both stay healthly next year. If yes I tell you, we will get out of the 1st round (at least)

 

can't complain. Not a bad season given what has happened.

Can't wait for the next season!

 

anybody else notice alston take the rockets fire back to the locker room with him??? its sad to say but its always the same with the rockets as for the last few years...you go on huge rollarcoaster ride only to have it end in a huge disappointment...great season rox next year may prove better

People to let go
Luther-No more to be said

Deke-....its just about that time...
Hayes-we gotta get someone bigger guy has talent but just to undersized

People on thin ice
Bobby J-Im kinda sick of the i wanna play hero style of play..call it what you will but thats what it looked like to me

Novak-Pure shooting is a great and rare thing but there is no such thing as a 4 man defense in the playoffs

Loren Woods-Some people probably feel he should be on the list above but i wanna see a little more of him before i decide

Steve Franchise-Better have a hell of a rebirth

AB-Puts me in the mind of a kid named JLIII...sure hope its not a re-run of that show give it another year

Key peaple to look forward to

T-mac-if u gotta go out..leave with a bang...and he played hurt....hell of a game for him he'll get his only a matter of time

Yao-He only gets better every season this one wont be any different

Landry-Please God let him keep that drive and heart he has now and dont let him get complacent

Scola-Call me crazy but i see potential all-star...when he really gets adjusted to the nba style of play and gets some more tutalidge...WATCH OUT!!!

Alston-Hate myself for calling for his head during the off-season...looking forward to our floor general being healthy

Mike Harris-Wanna see him more in the 3 position and not playin the for...praying for the development of a shot

Lets see what the draft holds and who knows what trades may come up. Most people fail to realize this but were the team with the most upside in the nba because of injuries.

 

man what a season...u gotta love these guys for the great ride they've taken us through. we may be out of the playoffs but the 22 game win streak lives in the history books forever

 

Now that the annual "Rockets first round exit" has occurred, time to shift to baseball.

 

oh and i hate the utah jazz more than anything else in this world

 

losser fXXk head

 

I thought we had the game at halftime, t-mac was hot, our players were playing well, we had all the momentum

 

I'm proud to be a Rockets fan. Bright future ahead with potential and steady improvement. Get rest and please stay health for next year!!!

 

well, thanks for the 22 game winning streak...

pray for health for next year.......



go rockets

go lakers


I hate everything about utah

 

thanks to everyone on clutchfans updating info about the team...

it was so fun...and the first time i heard about clutchfans was when the season started...and i joined...and i wouldn't trade it for the world


i loved how my20 thanked each other,

and i love how that yao, steve, rafer, brooks, novak, landry, scola, and the other guys are going to be even better

what i liked most about this series is that there were no tmac haters

see yall in the offseason!!

 

isn't it a coincidence tmac has played drastically much better throughout the game since rafer returned?

we really need to get a good backup for rafer next yr: a PG who can set up the offense like rafer and not just a scoring PG.

we must lighten the load on tracy.

as for yao, if deke is gone, get another backup so he can play less minutes.

 

First player to go...Head!...this dude was the equivalent to sam cassell looks...just terrible, and if the rockets keep luther next season, I will be at training camp next year trying for a contract

I am not as heart broken as last year, but I do hate the jazz..go lakers....See you next year rockets!...Good job

 

I'm not too disappointed at this stage. The night I was really bothered was when I learned that Yao was down for the season because I felt then that time the Rox did not have enough weapons to be a true contender. To my surprise, the Rox played very well without Yao and a lot of good things have arisen from this run, such as the development of Scola and Landry, which also means that in the future Hayes will play very limited minutes as long as Scola, Landry and Yao are all healthy.

Morey still needs to pull off some good acquisitions in the off season though such as a third scoring option and a consistent point guard.

 

Scola will not an all star. That is absurd. He is already 28 years old. He's already "gotten adjusted" for the most part to the NBA game.

 

Youre right allstar is pushing it but he can be better than he is now and thats close enough to allstar for me

 

Why trade?
He is useful and valuable

 

Give us one full healthy season and i promise you this team will get real far in the playoffs...it wouldn't have even been a contest if we just had Yao, Rockets would already be in the second round...Our roster is good as it is...maybe one or two tweaks...like getting rid of head!

 

I hate to say this, but I agree with this post... when they were down 13 in the 3Q, I was like, OH GOD, here we go again!!!
