    rafer sucks. i'm glad we lost this game. we deserved to lose. it looked like no one even cared towards the end. i hope this game will teach the rockets a lesson. you can't play hard for 44 minutes and then stop playing. you have to play hard for 48 minutes.

    Which is why assistant coach won't ever win in the playoffs.

    This not Rafer's worst night, i think blame goes to JVG and Tmac.

    Alston screwed up plenty, but at least he had the balls to shoot. T-mac and Shane refused to participate in scoring. JVG takes this lost because his job is to recognize when the team is stuggling to score. Why he had Bonzi watching on the bench I'll never know.

    If I am a rockets owner, in any day Rafer takes more shoot than Shane Battier, I will fire the coach.

    Players Not of Game:
    1) 0'fer Alston, 4th quarter misses and silly fouls and other suspect decisions.
    2) McGrady missing late and not bringing 'it'
    3) Van Gundy keeping Bonzi seated and others like Snyder and Lucas sitting
    4) Battier passing up his OPEN specialty 3 point shot, coming up small in the clutch.
    5) The whole team for not bringing enough on the court on the defensive side late (which I'm sure will be the only thing Van Gundy will focus on....), and being flat on offense.

    Rockets don't play again for 4 DAYS! Leave it all out there!

    you should never punish the worker, but rather the manager that is giving him a job over other deserving employees

    Bonzi got 12 points on 5-9 shooting 4 boards 1 block 1 steal in 17 minutes. one has to sk, why wasnt he given more minutes. ?... gundy has alot of explaining to do.

    Maybe it's just me, but it's amusing watching the YOF come here to complain after the loss. Where were these people a few days ago?

    I agree. At least Alston has the gut to shoot, Tmac and Battier choose to chicken out, that is not to say Alston is not stupid... Damn, I am so pissed.

    JVG should be included in the statement. I am tired of JVG and his favorites doing this crap. I hope the Rockets do not stand pat and do something that will change this team for the better.
