Nicely said. The Rockets are still in this thing and tomorrow's win will cure tonights ills. Have to start another winning streak tomorrow.
my negativity exists from watching the rockets the past decade, ive been watching the rockets since the early 90s and those are the times I yearn for, there is no reason why this team can't be an elite team with the top 2 center. it's just a gut feeling, and like I said i'd gain faith if we get there, but we probably won't. I now only expect the worst but I can't stop watching the rockets, it's just in me. and I promise im not a troll, I used to post mainly on realgm but they suck ass and this forum is a lot better.
I don't think Yao had anything to do with losing this game. Sure he didn't attribute offensively during the 4th quarter. But we lost because we couldn't stop Derrick Rose. We simply let him score the whole time.
don't know about the lob pass (sometimes yao fumbles or charges into the next defender). i mean have they practiced this enough? aka tony parker or steve nash. aaron isn't half of that. my vote went to lowry after i saw him the first couple of games. i was sold after the cavs game. but adelman is in serious love with aaron apparently.
Calm down, Rocket fans. This is just one game. I would rather see them lose a game like this at this point of the season while we still got some games left to play. This one will really jolt them, and that's a good thing. This one really embarrassed the coach and the players all involved. I hope they played the video of the 4th quarter of this game in the locker before every game they play from here on.
Dallas- 2 Denver- 3 New Orleans- 2 Phoenix- 3 Portland- 2 Las Angeles San Antonio Houston This is a list of the Western Conference teams in the Playoff hunt that lost games in the past WEEK. Also tells you how many times that they lost. You are right, EVERYONE IS UNDEFEATED!!!!!! I guess losing this game is sending us straight to the lottery. Stop reacting like a 12 year old school girl. Its one damn game. Lets get it back tommorow in Minny
Wow I kept checking my Iphone for the score and when I saw a 17 pt lead in the 4th I said " ahhh this one is over the Rockets are back !!!! " then a few beers later I looked up at one of the T.V.'s and I couln't believe what I saw....The final f...ing score At least I won't waste my time tonight watching the game since I Tivo'd it !!!!!! I just can't figure this team out !!
Yeah it is one damn game but how many times are the Rockets going to blow a 4th quarter lead that big and we have an excuse for them ! Its going to be tougher tomorrow because Minny is playing better and Houston has to travel their tonight ! Screw that they should'nt have lost this game
"I take the blame for the loss," Artest said. There were things I could have done to help us sustain the lead we had. I definitely take the blame. We made a lot of progress, we just had a bad fourth quarter. "It (the problem with fronting defenses) is something that can be fixed. They played hard. Fronting Yao is going to work. Teams will do that. We have to make sure we have something to counter it to make them come out of it." http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/sports/6286464.html

Everytime Tracy screwed up he mentions 'MAH KNEE! MAH KNEE!!!!'
This is the exact reason why we need to resign Artest ! He hates to lose yet he knows they can win. I absolutely love Artest and his warrior mentality ! There is no doubt in my mind that he is the leader of this team.
I'm not jumping on you JayGoogle but I can't stand to even hear T-Macs name any more !! He had no business at the game tonight he just F it up for the Rockets !!!!!! Tracy has never been a leader EVER !!!!!
Well I guess we just better turn the plane around and head back to Houston and concede the rest of the season. No excuse for the game, but its really frustrating when im reading these same people the past week praising this team and then jumping to these rediculous claims because we blew this game. If you think thats a fan, im sorry, but it isnt.
Got to love the fact that he wanted to pummel the refs after the game and he needed to be restrained by Deke...even though he wasn't foul on the last play.
