Honestly...i was wondering.. what did we do to deserve this?

Some children are so spoiled. In the last 30 years, we've made the playoffs 23 times, made at least the second round 10 times, made the finals 4 times, won the championship 2 times. Go check the stats on the Clippers.

 

Well, if you believe in "curses"... I happen to not believe those exist, they are under us. Jus sayin...

 

The writing was on the wall about Yao and Tracy's injury history before this season - I blame Leslie in part for refusing to entertain the possibility that either was not untouchable.

Like i said a few years ago, the fact that we had to preface all evaluations of the rockets with the phrase "When healthy..." casts severe doubt on whatever statement follows as, invariably, they are frequently not. Morey knew this.

 

I though that curse was settled with Barkley's career ending injury and twice paid over with his mug broadcasting home games.

Just shows you how long he keeps grudges. UH basketball is DOOMED.

 

close the ****ing thread...AWESOME post...

LOL @ "what did we do to deserve this"

We aint the ****in 2000-2008 Hawks...nor are we the 1990-1998 Kings...besides...who said anything about giving up on the upcoming season..yall can do it...me and a few others wont....

Hell we all knew it was a chance that Yao would be banged up at points in his career.

We knew Artest might not come back.

We knew T-mac having microfracture surgery was going to take time to heal.

This "sky is falling" bs is what should have been said in the "overused terms in the GARM" thread...

"OMG CURSED"

"FML"

etc etc.

stop it.

 

Because Houston's fans are bandwagon jumpers.

 

I don't think anybody expected all three of those things to happen simultaneously, with two of them in less than a week.

As it stands, we went from a 55+ win title contender that came within a whisker of knocking off the champs, to a 35 win also ran-caliber roster in the span of about 5 days.

So the reality is that the sky is a lot closer to the ground than it was this time last week - hence the frantic attempts to shed depth for Rubio by Morey.

 

It's called the "McLazy Disease."

 

A member from Clutchfans slept with the basketball God wife.

 

Cant blame Les... the possibilities were just too good not to be a homer

 

Maybe Mormon is the right religion after all hahaha

just kidding...

 

sorry

 

We can start with...
We have the two most brittle Super Stars on the same team.

 

A wise men would say, "Sign injury prone players to very long and expensive contracts" that´s what "we did" to deserve this.

Not to say that we didn´t have a single winner on our team until we sign Scola, we always have a bunch of wanabes that never acomplished what was expected.

Right now, i feel that we will have to think as if Yao and McGrady doesn´t exist and our salary cap is at 40 millions. I will support the rest of the team, but i don´t want any of those two resigned.

Look at SA, many want Manu out and he delivered 3 championships there, and a very thought mentality, and because he had problem 2 seasons he is being considered to left behind. Some here still have the hope that McGrady and Yao "will sat healthy". Be real.

 

because we signed this guy


instead of this guy

 

wow, no one is blaming Scottie Pippen yet...

 

Well, if there is some sort of curse, we can reverse it. Someone give Adelman Rudy T's lucky tie...and a Taco Cabana cup with a mystery beverage (see: alcohol) in it.

 

People need to stop whining. You could live in the Congo. This is just sports.

 

If we're playing the blame game ... I'm going to go with all that "predatory" talk. Guess we jinxd ourselves.

 

Everyone thinks we have bad luck because th eRockets have had great lineups recently and couldn't get anywhere due to injuries.

You cna't help injuries, which is why it's considered luck. The Rockets organisation has done everything right to create a champion, but it just hasn't worked out for us.
ie. LUCK
