    Rockets have stopped trying for the most part.

    Mark Jackson needs to STFU. He's starting to hype the Lakers over the Nuggets in the conference finals.

    Tough to go out like this. But hell, I can't stay disappointed at this team for long.

    I wanted the Rockets to win, but I'm not really upset since I had low expectations to begin with. With a bunch of role players and scrubs, we were at least able to put up a slight fight today. And to all who have said Artest is a star player, he's just a role player. If I were the Rockets, I'd look at other free agents before resigning him.

    Taken Over Commercial. Did you guys see that? That was uncalled for. They showed clips of the movie Taken where Neeson says "what I do have is a particular set of skills" and then show highlights of the black Mamba. They switch over to the Rockets highlights of 94 championship season. Then come back to more Kobe highlights with the "Taken Over"

    We lost but the media is rubbing it in.

    How much do I hate the Grizzlies for giving Gasol to the Lakers?

    That still doesn't justify the reason to become dirty like the Lakers. Do you want the Rockets to be remembered as the dirty team?

    I dont know why Kobe is coming back in other than to pad his stats. He might get injured.

    just lost to a more talented team in the series. can't argue with the effort and heart of this Rockets team though. Love our guys for battling against all odds.
