This will be the last time we see this group together and I have grown to love all of these guys. Right now it is hard to be positive but I will ride and die with my team. I felt like everyone gave their hearts to this team and sometimes you just don't win, and for that I cannot be angry right now. So lets send off this team with a thread to shed some light on some of the positives of this year! Dwight showed that he can be a dominant player in the post season and he has improved the team no matter what the critics say. His post play in the postseason was great and he showed his leadership. I feel confident in his ability to be cornerstone for a championship team. Harden had a hard time but he stepped up at times when he was needed and I think this loss will drive him to become the elite player he can be. He has his lapses on D but he also has some moments of brilliance on D also. He is still very young and has plenty or room to develop so I'm not to worried about him. And I would like to show some love for some guys who might not be here next year but I feel deserve some positive comments: Lin played well, he is a little out of control but that is also what makes him tough to guard, He hit plenty of big shots during the season and was a big part of the success that we did have this year. He might be done as a Rocket but I have no problems with his tenure here. And if he does end up getting shipped out getting another ball handler will be crucial for next season. Asik pouted his way thru the season but once he realized he was going to be on this team for the year he went all in and it was awesome to have two great defensive centers. He came as advertised and I think he truly is worth every penny of his contract, unfortunately other teams don't really value guys like him until they have them so we might get the short end of the stick on a trade for him. He deserves to start somewhere and I hope he didn't hate his years in houston to much! Feel free to add Positive thoughts on guys you appreciated this year.
Well I appreciate the Rockets a lot! Feel sorry they were too young to focus properly. Hey, isn't that what most people do with their talent? If you only love a champion, then go to the Miami website. Rox rule.
First off - Dwight was a monster, just a MONSTER!! Stepped up big time - hopefully Harden can learn from him but I liked his improvement on D the last games. This series is on Harden just as much as it is on McHale - I was expecting more from him but he's only 24. Lin although reckless at times gave a much needed spark off the bench so kudos to him. Parsons was ok at times, bad at times. Got to stay humble. WOLVERINE!!! Without Asik we would get swept. Morey needs to address the pf situation like ASAP. Thank you for a great season and see you next year!! Go Rockets!!
