Yes they have overall, despite Francis. Francis hitting his shot should help a lot. In the big picture he needs to find his niche, possibly not on the Rockets Team.
Let's just say that there are certain YOFs that want this team to lose if it means that we'll ship Steve and Cat out of town by the end of the season. Don't believe me? Search for some of Yetti's posts.
thats ridiculous... I dont think any of Yao's fans would want the team to lose. now back on topic.. the reason's I believe we are a lock for the playoffs. We finished 9th.. 1 game out of the playoffs. we are currently 9 games over .500 even 10 games for a short period. (which is quite a feat for this team) Of last years playoff teams 3 have been dismantled.. Phoenix one of the worst WC teams.. (stole the last playoff spot from us last year) Portland currently retooled and has added alot of firepower but its a lil too late and they are still crappy on the road. Utah lost 2 Hall of Famers I know they made some noise early in the season but I felt they wouldnt be able to sustain. We have some new players in playoff picture... The new look Nuggets have been playing great this season, they picked up some great FA's and Melo is exceeding all expectations. Grizzlies, who would have known they would be playing so well?!? This has to be the biggest suprise to me.. honestly I still cant believe it.. Posey has been the man for them over their lately. They also got lucky in trading for Bonzi since the blazers were practically giving him away. that still leaves a spot open for us in case we tank. IMO this team is getting stronger and believing in each other more. I think back to the Hawks game.. our guys passing to each other in crucial situtions with Yao being the steadying force in the middle. Utah has the heart but not the talent to make the playoffs this year and everyone else is just too far behind to catch up.. im excited about how well the Rox will do, and honestly im tired of all the negativity and bashing this forum does of our team and the players.. i feel like im at ihatetherox.com or something.. were supposed to be the hardcore fans.. not the overly critical media.

Why is there a lot of members here just to make the Rockets look bad. When its time to predict a game they always say the rockets will lose. It is a Rockets website we as fans should support our team not put them down
The Rockets will NOT lose every away game except 1. You can put that in the bank, frame it, certify it, etc. I will absolutely, unequivocably bet that there is no way in the WORLD the Rockets will win just 1 road game. Bet on it.
OK, my goof. You have then winning 3- much better. I'll go one better, though- no way in the world Rockets lose more than 4 in a row. I will guarantee that. Bet on it.
I am not saying that YOFs all exclusively want the Rockets to lose, however, there are all kinds of fish in the sea. Like I said, if you don't believe me, just look up some of Yetti's posts. I think it was either SJC or R2K that said that Juugie is the anti-Yetti. So if Juugie only shows up when Yao has a bad game and bashes the hell out of him, you can imagine what Yetti does. Although I must say that if we have to have one of them around, I'd much prefer Yetti. At least he has the sensibility to stop starting threads.
utah making the playoffs in the 8th what about portlant? LoL hide yourself in a black hole silentfan!
Hey, ima_drummer2k: GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR. I'm not inviting you to my birthday. If I knew how to put angry smileys on here you'd get about 80 of 'em... A TRUE Rockets fan doesn't HATE the Rockets... don't make me come over there and say a bad word at you.
when you post...see the box of smilies beside the part where you type? just click whichever one you want to use... but dont go overboard with them...that just iritates some people. MFW.....that was me. and I agree with you...given the choice of some around here...I prefer Yetti...at least he provides some entertainment from time to time. Hell...I dont even have him on my ignore list...he gives me someone to yell at when I feel mean. and I wold like to reiterate the request...plesae dont quote silentfan...I know for a fact there are lots of peole that have him on ignore...and we would prefer it if we didnt have to see the crap he posts. makes one wish that he would take his moniker seriously...and be silent.
OK, if you meant me, I'll settle for that... I think I spend too much time with little kids... but sometimes I think they're not THAT different from us...
Oh, OK, I tried that, but for some reason it doesn't work on my computer... oh well... (I wouldn't really post 80 smileys on someone... unless I fell asleep on my mouse maybe... it could happen... ok I gotta step away from the keyboard now and get back in bed. I won't even remember this in the morning...)
