    Good to see a sane thread. It was a good year and hopefully I will continue to enjoy this team. I have been following more on reddit since I could not take the arguing and am tired of adding people to my ignore list(prob 200 people lol). Despite this I think I learned alot about basketball from the good posters on here. Take care till next season guys/

    Anyone who hates on a player that much can't be called a fan. It defies all definition of being a fan. Everyone has a favorite (or least favorite) player, but a true fan wants his team and every player on it to win. A true fan can dislike the Harden ISO, but cheers for him to make that shot every damn time. A true fan applauds Lin for giving it his best while clearly injured.

    You candy a$$es that do nothing but hate on everyone and everything have obviously never played one second of a team sport. Flame away.

    Clutch or and admin should just step in and either ban posters or lock threads. It's getting out of hand in the GARM. Why can't everyone just be glad we got to witness the growth of our team? Yes, it hasn't been pretty at times but this is everyone's first year together. There is no need to finger point at X player and say he is the reason we won or lost. It's a team game, and everyone gets the blame all around. Enjoy that the Rockets have a great future ahead of them and we can all go from there.

    Yup, team game. Garcia actually stepped up huge, or we might not have won 2 games BTW to all the people blaming things. If anyone wants to blame anything, or anyone...I'd gander it would be the REFS!

    I dislike negative threads as much as anyone, but are fans really not allowed ANY negative emotions following a home loss that knocks us out of the playoffs?

    I've said at the beginning of the playoffs that a 4-0 sweep would not make me feel bad about the season. I also inherently understand that this season is a great success and that this series has been awesome.

    But right now, I feel like utter crap. And I don't need anyone to tell me I can't be a hater. Because I'm very, very pissed at a lot of players both on the team and on the Thunder. And I don't think anyone else who feels this way right now should be called a hater either.

    There's a reason why fan is short for FANATIC!

    Players are human they make mistakes, and they learn from those mistakes. Seeing those lin hating and harden hating and whoever play bad that day hating thread is just disappointing. It took Durant and Westbrook and Harden 3 years to make it to the finals and that team had arguably 3 of the top 10 players, and 4 out of top 35 maybe(Ibaka). It took them 3 years just get to the finals, and we took that team sans harden to 6 games, you guys should be proud of this team making it this far almost making history. No one should blame anyone, if you wanna blame someone blame Scott Brooks finally realize Perkins is useless on the court and started playing Collison. That is the main reason we lost this game not Lin not Harden not whoever.

    I'm sad we lost tonight but I'm vet happy about the season and the future.

    Rocket fans have more to look forward to then they have in years. Every Rocket fan should be happy and thrilled.

    The mentality of attacking one player to prop up another is annoying; and to take it to this kind of level is a shame.

    Just Wonder if any NBA stars watch this forum and find out how terrible Rockets fans is.
    It may turns off their interests on signing with us.

    Rrue, we overachieved in so many areas! Like reaching playoffs; winning 45 games with newly assembled team, with no time for chemistry and team trainings. Having young and inexperienced players. Then the 3pointers historic shootings!

    Finally we manage to give a run to the top team of Western Conference, while snatching 2 games! man thats huge. This only shows we have good coach and players.

    Yeah we do lack on certain areas, but those are the weaknesses that would be worked on in summer. I strongly trust this team is capable.

    Rockets will only grow from here. I am elated they even got to the playoffs. We have a good core and just need to work on getting everyone involved in the offense. One major thing is WE NEED TO BE LESS PREDICTABLE. Can't wait until next season...

    This has been the worst season of Clutchfans that I have known. After PLAYOFF WINS the board was more than 50% b****ing. I wonder if Clutch has lost control of his own creation. There's no doubt that this has been the least enjoyable season of Clutchfans to me, while the actual Rockets team was a joy to watch.
