"NO LAYUPS" - From Dallas with commentary from Yao, Artest

Me too! Running a virus scan... nothing found. Some glitch I guess.

 

hey, guys, chill out. This is just a game, just a regular season game happend to mean lot to us. But, it does not matter that much really. Say if this was held in our homecourt, we probably have a better chance to win, then all the problems with Yao catch the ball in the second half may be easily overlooked because we won, we won the division tittle, how exiting is that. Then What will happen next? Wait for the massacres from Mavs in the playoff, another first round knock out by Mavs, again?

I am glad that we lost today rather than lost to them in the 7th game in playoff and then talking the same issues we had for the whole season. I hate to say that but we do have time we got punished by our offense today then on saturday try not to make the same mistakes IN PORTALNAD, that's all.

I am proud of what has this team accomplished, Remember we dont have tracy, We are not as talented as the other teams, we dont have any superstar in the clutch time.. SO we played team basketball and good defence that is why we have come so far.

We dont have HCA? so be it, we will be better at playoffs

 

Maybe.

 

Thanks for another great show guys.

Battier's right. All those losses against lottery-bound teams this season really cost us. Ah, well.

it is the coach's fault. His instructions have never been executed properly. He should be more tough on the players.

 

ROFL....RA does have a way of making other coaches seem like Buster Douglas.

 

I LOVE THE ROCKETS. BUT IF YOU STILL THINK THIS TEAM IS BETTER WITHOUT TRACY YOU ARE CRAZY. WITH TRACY THEY ARE ABLE TO CLOSE OUT THESE CLOSE GAMES BECAUSE OF HIS ABILITY TO CREATE HIS OWN SHOT OR SHOTS FOR THESE SPOT UP SHOOTERS. THIS TEAM IS YAO AND A BUNCH OF SPOT UP SHOOTERS EXCEPT FOR WAFER, BUT HE HAS BEEN STUGGLING ON THE ROAD OF LATE. MAYBE WE HAVE BEEN LOOKING AT THIS WRONG MAYBE HAVE NOT NEEDED PIECES OF THE PUZZLE BUT AN ENTIRE NEW PUZZLE.ROCKETS WILL MAKE IT TO THE SECOND ROUND, BUT AFTER THAT I CAN'T CONFIDENTALLY SAY THEY WILL BEAT THE LAKERS. MAYBE WITH A HEALTHY T MAC BUT RIGHT NOW NO.

 

thanks for the quick video guys

Though is anyone else feeling a bit depressed this morning? I feel like half deflated helium balloon.

I was so upbeat about the playoffs yesterday... and today. I got nothing.

 

Same here. I'm probably at least 12 hours away from a healthy dose of perspective.

 

I was so excited about the possibilities...and even when we lost, New Orleans was still winning then every thing that could possibly go wrong for Rocket fans did.

UGH !

Now, I am hoping the rain holds off long enough to get my youngest son's Tee ball game in....that would flip my attitude, nothing like watching the joy of kids to make you realize what is really important.

He was ASKED about the REFS.

 

A team full of chokers! Every time the Rockets had a big moment, they failed to deliver, be it in the regular season or the playoffs. It has been this way ever since the Yao/McGrady combo has been in town. It is like the exact reverse 'karma' of the championship years.

Oh well, at least it is Portland, a team we know we can (and should) beat, home court or not.

 

Actually he was asked if the fouls to Yao and on him deflated the team in the third quarter...

 

Ask him why he is such a dumb arse? And loses his cool which costs the team.

Ask him why every team he has ever been on exhales when he finally leaves.

Can't wait for the same thing for the Rockets.

this team has no hope.

 

The only hope was the 2nd or 3rd seed and a little luck.

Honestly, this season went up in smoke when Tmac went down, and Artest was asked to lead.

Still going to root for them, but in all honesty, they might be better served getting a lot of playoff minutes for Lowry, Brooks, Landry, Scola and Wafer to let them grow for next year.

Thanks for the video and for going all the way to Dallas.. Raheel and Nuno.. Great episode!

 

Chill out...Its obvious that every REAL rockets fan knows that with a healthy Tracy we are definitely better... we need that closer..some 1 who can take over the game and create his shot when Yao is getting fronted. People will tell you I HATE TMAC and all that (even I think Tmac is a *** sumtimes) but no doubt we are gonna miss him in the playoffs and we missed him in that Dallas game.

 

I think Battier is really in pain playing along with someone like Artest on so different level of understanding..
