The Rockets next 2 games are against Chicago and Washington and the Rockets SHOULD beat BOTH of those teams. Period. No if, ands, or buts, they SHOULD beat those teams. If the Rockets can't beat both of those teams, and if they split those two games or worse get swept, then the season is over. Period. If you can't beat two crappy teams like that with the talent we still have then something is wrong. The Rockets are more talented then both of those teams. Period. Win the game Rocks I'm tired of moral victories or "we lost but boy we showed effort!" WIN THE FREAKING GAME!
Give me a break. You guys are full of it. What should we do if we lose both games RM, take our bats and go home? I can understand frustration, but calling for Rudy to get fired is ridiculous. Its time to dig deep and look for positives. I LOVE what the rockets are doing - rebuilding a franchise from the ground up.* We have a young core that is close to contending - Francis, Mobley, Taylor, and now Griffin. We are a good 5 man away from being a real threat, but those guys don't grow on trees. Francis and Taylor are out, and Mobley is at 50% - what do you expect?
I didn't say fire Rudy and I didn't say quit on the season I didn't say any of those in my post. And you don't have to be "full of it" to expect the Rockets to win the next 2 games, especially since the reason they lost last night wasn't because of a lack of talent but a stupid mistakes and ridiculous stunts (like dribbling the ball instead of passing it around like they did for 46 minutes last night). What I am saying is that if you can't beat two of the worse teams in the NBA, even without Francis then this season is over. If you can't beat those teams what's to say you can beat anybody before Francis returns!? And I have said myself I like what the Rockets are doing, they are doing a great job of rebuilding the team I'm not ripping Rockets management or Rudy, I haven't done that once, and I agree that the Rockets are banged up so people need to cut them some slack in most games, but these two teams we have coming up are among the worse in the NBA. I'm not saying take our bats and go home, I just expect the Rockets to beat a team with the combined wins of like 5 games. This team, even now, should be able to win those games. I'm not asking them to beat the Lakers or beat the Spurs or run off 5 or 10 straight wins, all I want is for them to beat teams that aren't as talented as them and who are playing worse then them. If they can't win those games what can we expect?
