    Its a pity, to be in a situation so *hitty

    We been here before, We Are Clutch City

    Ok It may not be the same team

    Couple things missing, mailnly a Dream

    Hell we even been up 2-0 on the road

    Coming home, we know how that story unfolds

    Season isnt over, two games left

    Sky's still blue like Walter White's Meth

    A lot to overcome for us to succeed

    But like we did before, we all must Believe

    We Are Clutch City

    Something deep down in me tells me to still believe but I am having a hard time trying to come up with a reason as to why. My heart believes we can still win but my brain is telling me otherwise. I am still so ****ing pissed off about last night.

    There's no reason to even bring up Hakeem.

    That was nearly 20 years ago. There is nothing linking those teams to this team except Les and Les had very little to do with those teams since he just bought the team.

    Mario Elie, Sam Cassell, Otis Thorpe, Vernon Maxwell, Robert Horry, Carl Herrera and even Charles Jones would eat these little wussies for breakfast. Those guys had heart, played with toughness and urgency, and if they made a mistake they weren't going to go back and make the same exact mistake right after.

    When we came back against the Suns in 95, it wasn't that big a surprise because the 2 home losses were flukes and we were clearly the better team.

    Nothing fluky about the last 2 games. We have been out-coached every minute of both games, and there's really no reason to think it won't continue over the weekend.

    Umm do you remember the NBA saying that game 1 should have been howard AT THE LINE not portland?

    Rockets were up 13 in game 1 btw, l;ost lead to a lame ass hack a howard strategy (lame and fluky too) got bit by a bad call that the NBA admitted (pretty much as fluky as you can get) aldridge is playing in god mode (sure he scores a lot against rockets but fluky in terms of what the average is) and it's only 2 games in a 7 game series. yet all is lost, mcfail blah blah.

    I know it's not the best situation but come on you make it sound like we were torched by 40 in both games.

    Everyone is quick to pile on with their own agendas and this is the most negative fan base I have ever seen. I would hate to be in a foxhole with 80% of you. We don't deserve 2nd round with this fan base and mentality anyway. Sounds like you have already conceded to portland 2 games in? nice job houston fans.

    He's not in the HoF though. We should get him back, what is he still doing as a scout for the LAKERS?

    As a die hard fan I have not doubt the team will bounce back and win the next two in Portland. I have seen the Rockets in the past playoffs win two in SA only to lose the next two in H-Town or win two in Dallas and lose the next two in H-Town, so I am hopeful the past can be repeated by the Rockets.

    It would help if we had a coaching staff that could make adjustments and not just roll the ball out there every game and think we can just show up and win games.
