    I feel similarly. I would put it this way though:

    I am a Rockets fan and I hate to say this. But I am afraid it is over. It ruined a good day!

    No T-Mac, No Yao: Tank city!

    Should Adelman tank next season to get one of the top 3 lottery picks like John Wall, Paul George, or Ed Davis?

    If you finish with the worst record in the league, are you guaranteed top 3 or top 5?

    Be ready to get flamed and NO!

    The Draft lotto prevents really the worst teams from getting the top pick

    are u serious??? WTFF TANK THE SEASON???

    U must not seem to see how much heart this rocket team has...No YAO, no t-mac..whoever is not playing is besides the point...but the 5 rocket players on the court are out there to compete and are talented enough to make things happen...our players know their role and what they have to do to succeed

    this SEASON Without Yao will not be tanked...even our young rookies can even come in and produce right away...James White is ready to play...Jermaine Taylor wants playing time and can score...this team will NOT tank the season..i guarantee u that

    no such thing as tank, they got tickets to sale.

    they will however look to get some younger talent now that it looks like yao and tracy is definitely never goin to happen.

    plus tanking is loser talk. you take on a loser mentality and you will always be a loser. iono bout you but i love my rockets playing hard every night win or lose.

    Yao and McGrady, McGrady and Yao. I guess it just wasnt to be. We had such high hopes. The hardest part of this is that they never really got a fair chance.

    That Game 7 loss at home to Utah in the 2007 NBA Playoffs really stings.....

    I know, I know.... I am still not over it.

    Damn, if the NBA was made into a Marvel comic....Yao would be "Reverse Wolverine"...The hero with the body that refuses to heal

    It's sad to say, but this chapter in the story of the Houston Rockets is over.
