    If you watched, you'd know Swift had a good game tonight.

    Looking back, that win over Golden State really hurt. It was on their homecourt and we had every excuse for losing available but we didn't. :mad:

    eh, someone perceived to have character concerns that causes his stock to drop, and someone with legit character concerns are two different things.

    I agree that I don't want another Eddie Griffin, but I'll take a Zach Randolph like player if he can make the team significantly better.

    Remember a lot of people were critical of TMac's character, and I haven't seen anything to really validate that.

    Although I understand the importance of losing this game, however it's still sickening to wish your team to lose, it just tough for me to stomach any loss by the Rockets.

    Rudy Gay, Brandon Roy, Adam Morrison...

    Three guys I want to drop to us. If we pick any of those, I will be extremely happy.

    I understand. I have wanted the Rockets to lose since McGrady went down with his latest injury. I could not stand to watch full games until tonight when I had some fun with this great loss.

    What a dissapointing game. The Rox can't even intentionally miss a free throw.

    Oh well on the bright side at least the Rox can work hard to scratch out a loss against a team that has turned losing on the road into an art form.

    Man,

    We almost blew it and won....good thing we let Rafer shoot so much...

    :)

    This was the last winnable game, the rest should be easy and we should finish with 49 losses, all we need is GS to win once or twice and we are golden.

    i'm proud of this team!

    they know how to lose against another team that is doing everything possible to lose (sidelining garnett).

    we are the best losers around!

    It won't be easy looking at the remaining game schedule for GS, they are on track to 50 or 51 losses.

    I think GS and Boston will both finish lower than us and possibly Minnesota....I think 8 or 9 with 49 losses is where we land.
