Welcome to the Tomb of Doom!!!! This is the house where win streaks come to die. Playing well? Well our team will change your perspective. Hoping to move up in the playoff race? Forget about it. Looking forward to the Rockets coming in for a visit. Don't expect to leave with a victory. This will be the start of your tailspin. We are really and truly hoping this can be the start of something special...like having the Rockets fall outof the playoffs
what the heck man. this thread is clearly against the rules of the BBS. the thread should be locked and you thrown off the board. this is a Rocket's fan forum okay?
I hope you are aware of the fact the your team has ZERO go-to players and that alone will get you run from the playoffs. So enjoy your 1st 50 win season and then standby to get rolled.
It's all in good fun...MemphisX is no troll. Grizzlies coming into this game with a lot of momentum and motivation (home court for round1). Rockets have struggled recently but at least have been competitive in every game over the past 2 weeks. The 'tomb of doom" is going to experience the "Tao of Yao" as the Rockets, ahem, put their foot into your candy Grizzly a$$.
yeah yeah yeah... Memphis is the second best team in the league after the all star break, blah blah blah. he doesn't need to obnoxious about hoping the Rockets fall out of the playoffs. whatever... when you live in a lousy-ass city like Memphis I guess you need something to be happy about.
The Tomb of Doom? Allow me to retort: One winning season, gives you little reason To come over here, with an arrogant sneer And herald a team that will run out of steam On the way to the crown, and on the way down In a couple of years, the greatest of your fears Will be realized, as you stare in the eyes Of Yao and Steve, as we've always believed Who will wear the ring that a championship brings So Memphis X, so much for your hex We won't shed a tear if we don't pass you this year We have the future tools, and your fans are the fools For thinking the Grizz will do more than fizz Before the championship run is all said and done. The bell tolls for thee, the bell tolls for thee, Sorry I gotta stop now, but I gotta go pee.
doesn't matter... Well done! *applause* Like the man said...enjoy it while you can MenphisX...cause until you get yourself a real go to guy....the Grizz will be firstround fodder.. Congrats on having a nice season...but the Rockets are better built for the long run...and you know it. Good luck to you........you are gonna need it.
we shall see MemphisX And yipengzhao relax. mamphisx is no troll, he has been here for a long time. and he is just having fun with us.
Man, we have The Logo. All I am worried about is our next game. If we need a go to guy to win a title then I am sure Jerry West will get us one this summer. Until then we will have to continue with this system of having 3-4 go to guys. Heck, Portland almost won a title with a similar design. Do you guys think you will win your 1st orund series? Playoff success? Heck making the playoffs is our success for this season. Winning a game, let alone a series would just be icing on the cake.
There once was a Grizz fan named Memphis Who drank the bong water for Breakfast He talked really tough But the Grizz couldn't back it up And now he'll be bashed across Texas
Key Word: Almost Magic Johnson Moses Malone Larry Bird Isiah Thomas Michael Jordan Hakeem Olajuwon Shaquille O'Neal Tim Duncan Every champion over the past 23 years has had one of these players on their team. Maybe it's different in baseball (Angels) or football (Patriots), but in the current NBA era, this is the model for success.
I just wanted to reiterate this for our newer members without a sense of humor... he is not a troll....... We used to have quite a few fans from other teams come here and talk...sometimes things got heated when tauntings came up before or after games against those teams...but in the end...they respected our fanaticism..and we respected theirs. MemphisX has waited a long time to be able to say he is a fan of a good team...and is enjoying it right now I imagine.. but I still say...the Rockets will have better longterm success than the Grizz....they are a good team...and possibly more consistently good than us right now...but that will change soon.. Logo is gonna have to work some real magic to find a true franchise player to take the Grizz to the next level...we already have one(or two)....
