    Since we want to deal with hypothetical scenarios, what if Dallas had beaten Golden State? The Rockets then lose in the second round.

    I think we would have atleast been to the finals by now if it weren't for the Jazz :mad: Yao just couldn't match-up up with Okur or Boozer and none of our pg's could match-up with d will, which gave them the advantage.

    yet even then it was taken to a game 7. T-Mac and defense carried this team of scrubs pretty much.

    The 2007 team was good and tougher than the current team but still not tough enough for the playoffs. Our current team is not even tough enough for season play how ridiculous is that? Anyway i know if the 2007 team would have beat the Jazz then they would have either lost to Spurs in WC finals or won the championship. Changing topics... everytime I look at this clip...

    I get ticked! It's like this organization didn't really understand what made this team win moreso... not statistics TOUGHNESS! Everytime I look at this clip then look at our current team i be thinking in my head F Morey!

    Man, I still remember game 7 to every detail it seems.. We were with them every step of the way, then in the final minute we couldn't grab a damn rebound!!! Man that still pisses me off..

    I honestly do believe that if we would have beat them, then we would have won it all. Mcgrady would have finally gotten that first round monkey off his back and it would have cleared a path to the finals.

    Ah the good old Yao and Tmac show, I don't think we would have beaten the Spurs in a 7 game series, 2 players only get you so far.

    We had our chance 2 years ago when we upset the Lakers in game one but someone's foot cracked and we had a cry baby who sat on the bench complaining and blocking trades.

    wtf bonzi wells quit on the team... he played a little disappearance act... heres a quote from his agent:

    ""He felt he was hurting the team," Duffy said. "He did not want to be a distraction with his play. It was not his actions. He was frustrated with his play and did not want to hurt the team. His methodology was wrong, but that's what he was trying to do."

    "more donuts plz" wells was out of shape, played bad during the regular season, and couldn't get over the big contract he missed out on. yea... bonzi was the answer :rolleyes:

    Yeah the agent's gonna tell the accurate account.

    Then all of a sudden Bonzi got "revitalized" when Rick Adelman came on board, even signed a Chinese shoe deal.

    Okay so Bonzi's a crazy coach clasher just like the reports said he is, worse than Von Wafer :eek: It just so happens that THREE players on the same team (Bonzi, Spanoulis, Kirk Snyder) fall off the deep end after playing with Van Gundy. Its not Van Gundy's fault they're mentally unstable from birth, but the JVG doghouse effect didnt seem to help matters either.
