No doubt about it. Health has contributed, travel, defense and hustle have slacked, offensive efficiency is down... That's not my point though. The frequency and frankly surprising depth of negativity round here after losses is just stupid. Totally lacking sight of the big picture. I want better for this team than it's own fans holding torches and pitchforks like we have a monster to burn. We don't. We have one of the best teams in the world.
After this slump, I really need some Soma, OP. Am I at the right place? (or the Left place??) Help! My Rockets are driving me crazy!
They have been very mediocre in the month of January. People aren't upset with just one game or two. They are upset because this team had major regression this month. That doesn't happen with elite teams.
Rox have exceeded expectations AND teams that are tall,athletic,big and aggressive have the blueprint to beating the Rockets in the playoffs...trade deadline looms
CLEVELAND NOT ELITE YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST. also, you've been upset with them since the start of the season... not sure i've seen one positive post from you concerning the rockets. it's a GAME - learn to enjoy it a little more amigo.
I've been upset with them this month. They played phenomenal basketball prior to this month. You're right San Antonio and Golden State are the only elite teams in the league this year. Every one is has question marks.
Hi. I'm not denying anything. I'm saying it's ridiculous to be on a rockets fan forum and watching people redefine what elite is because the rockets actually fit the bill. This is an elite team. This isn't what elite team play looks like.
