We are missing 2 key starters vs a terrible matchup, what did you expect?

OP's points are very solid. As I said at the time, when the Rockets lost Beverly they lost any chance to make a mildly deep run.

 

These are professionals. Who are paid a ridiculous amount of money.

I didn't realise missing 2 players (not their superstars) was a fair excuse for the team to quit in two games now.

Forgive me.

Thank goodness the rest of the teams in the Playoffs don't have this mentality - and I can watch competitive games.

 

Please don't play the injury card in this series. All of you would trade CP3 for DMo and Bev in a second.

And please don't act like we already lost.

It's like some of you are just making excuses for something that has not happened yet.

 

yeah. he's a scrub since he never made it to the finals. Jason Terry has a ring. So he's a better player and human being.

 

The same CP3 who has been considered the best pg on the entire planet for the past 5 years.

 

It seemed like most people on the board didn't expect a deep run out of the team in the first place. The team didn't seem to expect it either. We overachieved in the regular season and we still have some holes to fill.

I think we'll be legit but once we get another play maker behind the beard. This series hasn't surprised me at all.

 

Why are you here trolling? You're just making ppl here hate Jeremy more

 

Honestly ask yourself, would inserting DMO and Bev get us over the Clippers???

 

To not be blown out by Austin river

 

Cavs making it 2-2 without Kevin Love.

Washington making it 2-1 without John Wall.

We have two stars on the floor every game and yet it's twice the Clips have blown us out.

 

I expected us to show up for game 1 at home against no Chris Paul.

And I expected us to show more pride.

But otherwise I agree with OP. I wanted the Spurs because A) I thought we could learn something from a Spurs series, and B) I expected this series to look basically like this series.

 

According to most of you, we were better off without Bev. How quickly you've changed your mind

 

That last loose ball we dived for sums up what we have been missing and why injury etc excuses are lame.

 

What I expect are

Excuses every darn year

 

2009 team was also and they had more fight

 

I am a CP3 fan dunno why people think I am a r****ded LOF. No thanks yuck.

 

Have 2 in their prime Superstars & dig for excuses.

The Wizards lost Wall.
