I'll be quite honest, I changed my assessment of this year's Rockets. Before the season started, I thought that I would be happy if the Rockets played respectable in the first round. So my satisfactory level is fulfilled if: 1. Build some chemistry 2. Play respectable Then they started playing great ball. I started to wonder what if. But now that we are down 3-2, I realized something. That this team already fulfilled my expectations. Let's see... number 1 and 2, check and check. There is nothing for me to complain about. Obviously, I would like for them to do better, but great teams aren't built in one season. Just look at what we have so far, a great coach and an amazing core. Is there anybody that can stop that TMac and Yao pick n' roll. Best part is, in about 5 years, when Deke finally retires ( ), we'll still be here running it, but it will only work even better. As for playing respectable, the games speak for themselves. Mind you, we've had our mind lapses, but minus a lousy reffing here and there, minus also some NBA conspiracy (wink wink) and we'd have won the series 4-0. Now, some might say that I should have saved this thread until the offseason, but then some of you might not enjoy the games. In summary, mission accomplished. Enjoy the rest of the games and what's more, enjoy a great future.
