    I'll take my usual role as well... do the Lakers and Blazers suck? Cause they've both gotten beaten by the Clips as well.

    Why do you feel the need to take ZRB's role? Why does this have to be a role? This is the crappiest role I have ever seen, and no one hear feels like hearing about it.

    To tell you the truth, if the Rockets lose this game, their chances of making the playoffs are close to zero, if not zero.

    Answer me this The Cat, are the Blazers and Lakers going to make the playoffs?

    Yes.

    Are the Rockets if they lose this game?

    No.

    Oh really? Let's take a look. We'd be 3 games behind Phoenix with a loss. If Philly beats Suns tomorrow (they should), it's a 2.5 deficit. If we beat the Sonics Saturday (we should), it's a 2 game deficit. If we can beat Phoenix next week, its a 1 game deficit. Phoenix has a very difficult closing schedule. So how exactly is it "close to zero"?

    Goodbye playoffs. No playoff team loses 3 of 4 to the Clips. That's all I'm going to say on the matter.

    Goodbye playoffs, this is freakin' (say the other f-word) pathetic.

    I'm almost embarassed to be a Rockets' fan right now.

    We can't even beat the Clippers, how do we expect to beat the Sonics?

    Blazers lost 2 of 3, with one more game still left. So let me know the rules please. It's ok to lose 2 of 3, just not 3 of 4? Please.

    The Blazers couldn't even beat the Clippers, so how did they beat the Lakers, Kings, Jazz, Mavs, etc.?

    And how did we beat the Spurs just 5 days ago?

    Not to take the "We Suck" side, but those teams can afford to lose to the Clippers. However no playoff team can afford to lose to the Clippers three times.

    You're joking, aren't you? This team won't make the playoffs. That Spur win? A fluke. This, is the true Rockets. They've shown it all season. They are incapable of beating the crap teams, and I guarantee when the Rockets miss the playoffs, we will look back on the three clipper losses.

    When you are scratching and clawing for the playoffs, you CANNOT afford to be losing to the freaking Clippers.
