    Maybe we could land TJ Ford in the draft and ship Moochie off for a second round pick.

    Wishful thinking.

    man you guys are insane.

    sure go ahead, jump off the band wagon because we have a two game losing streak.
    if we beat utah by one point youll all jump back on and brag about what great fans you are.

    Holden, I'm not jumping off the bandwagon ... I'm just shutting my eyes tight for the crash coming up very soon. :)

    That's really stupid, Holden. You want more of the same? I expect more from you, and I expect more from them. You're too smart for that.

    It doesn't matter where we are now. We have more road games than any other contending team. We are a terrible road team.

    We are not going to make the playoffs unless a miracle happens.

    I believe it's called a dribble. I hate to see him do an ISO though.

    You know what moral victories are for?

    They are for teams that perenially suck like the Cavaliers!

    Yet, it is a moral victory that we lost to a team that is *always* playing for said moral victories by 3 points??

    That's rich....lololololololololololololololololololololol

    If we miss the playoffs by one freaking game, this is the game that we will look back on and realize that it cost us.

    I just hope that if we don't make the playoffs, that we miss it by more than one or two games.:(

    You've got it all wrong Holden. THE BANDWAGON is all about the losing.

    thats the dumbest thing ive ever heard. see thats what im talking about. you people blow everything out of proportion..
    we may be a bad road team, granted. but at this point we are a better TEAM, RECORD WISE, than the lakers the warriors etc...

    if we are the eighth seed as we speak, how is it a miracle to tread water there for the rest of the season and make the playoffs? it seems very doable to me, bad road team that we are and all...i mean we got to this point? we must have been doing something right at some point?

    the season is a roller coaster..and at the low points you people say itll be a miracle if we make the playoffs and you want to trade everyone... two games ago we beat the wolves and the kings, two weeks ago we beat the lakers...

    but we lose two games one by three points and all is forgotten and this team is a joke. this board is a joke.

    I'm really curious to know why anybody thinks this team is well-coached. There are good things about the Rockets. But coaching clearly isn't one of them.

    1. SF and CM are not held accountable for their selfish play.
    2. Inconsistency is often a hallmark of poor coaching.
    3. The substitution patterns are, and always have been, bizarre.

    Holden,

    Playoff teams or good teams don't lose to teams that have only won 9 games all year. Playoff teams or good teams don't give up 105 points to suckyass teams, either.

    You're right about the 8th seed, but logic would have you think that if the Rockets can't even take care of the dregs of the league, why does anyone think they can honestly make a run deep into the playoffs (if they can even get there)?

    That is why people are upset, and I'll give you a warning: I would stay away from "labelling the board". That has bit some other posters in the ass before. Take it for what it is worth.

    You have no clue. At least make a plausible argument.

    The Lakers are 7-3, have won 4 straight against some really good teams.

    They are on a roll. At this pace, the Rockets will finish 42-40 (6-13 on the road, 10-5 at home). The Lakers right now are .500. You don't think the Lakers will be better than 19-17 the rest of the way?

    Are you kidding me?

    Seriously, instead of ranting and raving and calling other people's posts stupid, try to get a clue. You don't have any idea what youre talking about.
