    Though unlucky they lost 2 starters in the weeks before the playoffs started.

    Any other team without 2 of their 5 starters?

    * though clearly, don't want that to be the excuse...

    COOL POST BRO. We earned the second seed in the regular season so we got to play a dysfunctional mavs team and that was falling apart at the seams.

    Rockets weren't lucky. They earned the 2 seed, beat the Mavs, and came unglued against the Clippers.

    No we weren't. I wish we played anyone else and got our asses handed to us just like this round.

    Extension or not there's no way McHale could stick around with 2 first round exists in a row.

    But you know when it's all said and done Mr Les 'we don't need to get out of the first round to be considered championship contenders' will heap praise on this P.O.S head coach because he navigated his way through the conference into a second round appearance the likes of which only one Rockets team has done in the past however many long years.

    I'm not even angry anymore. This team gave up caring so I gave up caring too.

    But ***** me dead if this guy is here as the head coach next year - I don't know how I'll bring myself to watch many games when the result is always the same in the end.

    rep.

    bear in mind he has to live with his hatred of himself past the,this board, nba and the rockets.

    hate spreading is only a temporary 'win' for him here... imagine how unbearable in general his life is?

    I try not to get joy from folks misery but he lives in a first world country and chances are he has a roof over his head. so yeah. sucks for him but kinda funny too.

    rage on.. kick the dog. wear that frown with hate.

    I agree, there isn't any other playoff team with so many blowout games in this league.

    How about we were unlucky to get the Clippers? Against the Spurs we would be winning the series.

    Losing the series because you're down a few guys is one thing.

    To be completely outclassed?

    Come on now.

    Hack hack hack.

    Missed free throw missed free throw missed free throw.

    What does McHale do then?

    What does McHale do to stop the Spurs picking apart our defense like swiss cheese?

    I get we match up with them.. But come on now. This is the Playoffs. Pop would be r*ping McHale's mind so bad he'll be in a psych ward at the end of the 4 game series.
