Congrats to the Rockets for having the second worse loss in the playoffs this year...

The Lakers obviously laid down on Sunday. That game was a total farce and is part and parcel of why the NBA stinks.

Ya he called it. I admit i was shocked to see how bad the Rockets played last night. That one tops the Bucks regular season game when we got blown out by a shite team. 5-29 from 3 is fricking laughable. That was the worst Rocket preformance I can remember since the dallas game 7 a few years back

I mean if there is a silver lining from last night it still only counts for one loss. Probably should count for 2 or 3 losses but if the Rockets can take game 6 at home anything can happen in a game 7. Not giving up till LA has 4 wins.

They played hard all game. It just wasn't their night and they missed alot of shots, turned it over too much....but they didn't quit like Lakers did Sunday. They were overmatched last night. LA has a potent offense and when u start giving them fast breaks u will get killed.

Going 7 games.

Ron quit towards the end of the 1st quarter. I really have no idea what we were thinking last night. Let's see, our offense was successful when we got ball movement and made the extra pass, so next game why don't we try to ISO 1 on 1 every time we get the ball.

Just tryin to stay positive Lee. I hope the Rockets are too for game 6 cause they come out like that again they will get booed out of Toyota center.

In all seriousness though I like that they got the shite kicked out of them as opposed to a buzzer beater by Kobe to win game 5. This way they got embarrassed and hopefully can use that to come out firing in game 6. When you lose the other way it tends to deflate a team for the following game but we will see.

That's one thing that drives me fricking insane about Ron. He will play his own game despite what has been working and despite what play is called because he wants too.

I dont think Ron quit....but he definately needs to step it up and stop playing like a bonehead. His shot selection & passing has been horrible.

Yeah I wasn't trying to break your balls or anything, but i just can find anything redeeming in that beatdown. It wasn't even like the Lakers were playing great defense, we just couldn't pass the fricking ball.

I think Houston will take game 6.

either way, it's been a nice run considering the circumstances. i hope that tmac fully recovers from his injuries. adding a healthy t-mac, something we haven't seen since the utah series, would really help next year. guys like brooks and scola have made huge strides. even with yao's issues, the future is bright for houston.

i know i'm supposedly a douche and what not portcity, but i kind of want the rocket fan's opinions on this

Considering how well they have played without him, how the team has gelled, and the overall more positive outlook of the team/franchise/fans of the Rockets have changed since TMac's step down.

Do you really want him back? Don't you think it would be smarter to cut your losses, get his contract off the books, and sign a pure shooter/scorer (i.e.: Redd)?


I mean I don't know this team all that well, but living in Houston, I've heard several people say that they feel he's more of a team cancer than anything...

I should bump your shitty posts where you predicted blowouts for the Lakers when they lost.

I will take him back for one more year. Next year is his contract year so you know he is gonna try to play out of his arse. After next year it would depend on the deal he wanted to resign. if he thinks he is still a max contract guy he will get shown the door.
