Really proud of this rockets team.

No matter what happens in game 6, everyone should appreciate what the rockets were able to accomplish.

- winning 10 games in a row without the big fella.
- winning a total of 22 games in a row, how many teams can say that.
- making the jazz series a competitive one without Yao and t-mac, battier, and alston playing with injuries that require surgery
- the heart and soul of the team with the mentality of never give up and lay it out all on the line
- development of scolandry
- brooks becoming the back up pg for years to come
- mutombo finding the fountain of youth for a 2nd time. too bad he won't stick around for a third time. :cry:

you look at the teams like nuggets who have better talent at every position and yet they play for themselves instead of playing for the team. The rockets play with such passion, such heart that me me me goes out the window and the concept of team game flourishes.

teams such as dallas and suns should also be ashamed of themselves. Better team, better talent and still weren't able to get past 5 games.

game 6 is on friday and whatever happens will happen but even if the rockets lose, no one should be disappointed and start posting threads like how t-mac didn't do this or rick adelman made poor decisions. Instead fans should look at the heart and the determination to even get to game 6 and still giving yourself a chance to win and extend. The rockets right now could easily be up 3-2 but it is what it is.

GO ROCKETS, do your thing, just have to win 1 more game in Utah and the jazz will be too broken down to play game 7, especially on the road.

no team will get beat twice on their own home in a game 7. Pressure is on them, they HAVE to win or risk coming back to houston. But i believe that the rockets will match their intensity and will find a way to come back and end it in 7.

ROCKETS IN 7

Yeah, have to admire what the team has done despite all the injuries and still making it competitive against a very good Utah team. Win or lose, it's kind of hard to fault the team.

(Though win would be MUCH better).

I still don't see this team beating the Jazz but I'm already extremely happy with what the team has done for this season. Without Yao, we still managed to pull off that incredible record breaking run. Even now, we are only one win away from tying the Jazz. This team is pretty awesome!

Which Rockets fan isn't proud of this team? I mean, without Yao just says it all. This team is a great team, hopefully they will be even better with Yao next season. I look for Yao to dominate like the beginning of 06-07 year when he went off.

well it was a fun ride

not the outcome i was expecting but the rockets did lose and i'm very sad.

this is going to my last post, i don't want jazz fans on my case 24/7.

hopefully things change for the better for the team and especially for t-mac, it was extremely frustrating seeing t-mac do it all while the bench just stunk it up.

anyways, have fun guys around the board, and you might be able to see me when the new season starts.

oh GO LAKERS.
