Why do the Rockets suck SO MUCH?!?!?!?

We can blame it on the injury bug that plague almost the entire team.  From the back injury of Tmac, toe injury to Yao and the retirement of Jon Barry.\n\nWell, we can also blame the management for trading Mike James for Rafer Alston.  James is doing very well in Toronto.

Yes, the team was very dissapointing.  I mean, they have Baron and JRich and Murphy but they SOOO underachieved.  They should have at least made a push for a playoff spot.  Now there's talk of trading Murphy away to make room for Diogu.  That might be good in the long run but if you don't stick with a player and ship him off, what's the point of having them?  Bad bad bad

for one they got screwed starting the 3rd quarter....also they did horrible on the free throw line...hopefully they'll get it together on Sunday..Miami wasn't that bad they just need to step it up a little more...and practice those free throws...its killing them..

Ya Isiah is Ruining the franchise more than it is already was Larry brown who screwed up as a coach with 42 different line ups! i mean their is no chemistry their! Renaldo Balkman was chosen 20th by the knicks he shouldnt have been in the 1st round but in the second round but i truly believe no one would have toched upon him he could ahve been free agent and the knickscould ahev signed him! the knicks neede adn still need a pure point guard and a good passer. MARCUS WILLIAMS the best guard in the draft adn the best pure point guard adn passer! Knicks had a chance to get him instead they got some sucky guy like Renaldo Balkman. I mean they passed on him and the NJ Nets got him thier rivels, with the 22nd pick and then they got Josh Boone a very good forword! Two huskies back-to-back! The Nets made a samrt move because they ahve an amazing point guard who can replace Jason Kidd when he retires which will be soon. Now Jason Kidd can teache Marcus WIlliams some tips and handers to help him, I mean Jason Kidd is an amazing Gaurd. The Nets drafted two huskies basck-to-back  adn thats really smart because Marcus WIlliams is friends with Josh Boone and they were on the same team (Conneticut Huskies) so they know how one another plays, so they wont have a problem and then they are surrounded by some of the NBA's best: Vince Carter, Jason Kidd, and Richard Jefferson. They also ahve Kristic who can get some bench time and have Josh Boone Play. Like in the Playoffs when Nets faces Miami and couldnt take on Udonis Haslem and Shaq, especially Kristic. He was having a hard time and no nbench time because no one was good thier to replace him for a while. As for the Knicks fan i am a big one and now really like the Nets too even though they are the Knicks Rivals. The Knicks needed a pure point gauard and passer but they dont get one instead draft Forwards! I mean seriously, Isiah is a very good drafter, after all he was the one who Drafted Channing Frye and Nate Robinson, he also got David Lee who sint that bad.I don't know how but the knicks need a miracle and need to pull thier act together. When the Knicks drafted Renaldo Balkman, Spike Lee was like he is a sleeper and will remian a sleeper . a sleeper\nKnicks are giving Isiah Thomas 1 year to pull the team together but he messed up already with  the draft i mean if u had the chance to Draft Marcus WIlliams who was like a really good top 5 canidate i would draft him. Well lets see wut happens with the Knicks.\nIsiah is beoming and amzingly bad GM

As a team it is very frustrating because they try and dribble the ball into the damn goal.  They so rarely take outside shots.  Their forwards need some lessons.

because they are not a sportsman team, they play dirty.  They constantly trip and make nasty plays, especially when they start losing. they also dont play like a team, a lot of their players hog the ball, and think they can score from anywhere.

As long as Yao Ming is the focal point at Houston, the Rockets will not win the NBA Finals in any year. He is way too soft of a big man, rarely goes up strong, and he needs to learn how to jump a little so players like Ben Wallace cant get a rebound over him. Also, we all know Tracy McGrady's teams never fare well in the playoffs, or like this year, wont even make the playoffs.

players today are great athletes,but the vast majority don't have basic fundamental skills. You can count on one hand the number of players who can hit a 12 foot shot from the baseline. Everything is either a dunk attempt or a 3 pointer. I don't really blame the players for that, I would put most of the blame on ESPN...what do they show in their basketball highlights? Dunks and 3 pointers. That's how you get on ESPN... \n\nThere is no real team play (on most teams) because of the lack of all around skills of most players. (San Antonio and Detroit are the exceptions, that's why they win the way they do). \n\nEuropean players are better all around players than U.S. players now (evidenced by the USA's pathetic showing in recent Olympic and International competition). This is because they learned the game from the USA in the 50s and 60s, and are now using that style of play against us.\n\nYeah, I know, our "best" nba players don't all go to the olympics anymore, but our college players used to wipe the floor against the best professional teams from the USSR and Eastern Europe...\n\nThen, you've got the non-existent, made-for-ESPN "rivalry" between "Bron" and "Melo"... ESPN and the NBA are trying to make this into the new Bird vs Magic rivalry... guess what NBA? it's NOT WORKING!\n\nThey're both in their 3rd year, and their teams still suck...\n\nThere are no good centers in the league any more, other than Shaq (it remains to be seen how good Yao will become). Ben Wallace is a good player, but even his game is very limited...he's a good rebounder, and a good defender, but can't shoot worth a.....\n\nJermaine ONeal is a great player, made greater by the lack of decent centers...\n\nKwame Brown?  Zydrunas Ilgauskas? Are you kidding me?\n\nYou have shooting guards that can't put the ball on the floor, and you have point guards like Jason Kidd that can't shoot worth a .... \n\nPlayers are becoming so specialized that it's becoming impossible to sit through a game any more... \n\nFans are more accepting of this type of play now, and ESPN gets carried away with a player's 'accomplishments'... a 10 point, 5 rebound, 4 assist game is considered a great all around game..just watch espn sportcenter or espn news, they'll actually highlight that a player had 15 pts and 3 rebounds, as though that constitued a great all around effort...\n\nFor the most part, the dunks we see today are often more exciting than they were 20 or so years ago (except for Dr J's), but in terms of the ability to play all facets of the game, it's getting worse. Players are drafted after high school or after 1 year of college, and they can't play the game yet..but it doesn't matter, because most of the guys in the league can't play either...

Haha, that was me about an hour ago (only I used language not as nice as yours). LoL. I think that the quality of play in this series has been badly tampered because of the whistles being blown during the games. Neither team has been able to play to their full potential, and I would've liked to see STRAIGHT UP BALL instead of a free throw bonanza. The Spurs have played as well as they could under the circumstances (give or take a turnover/missed shot here or there) and I am a firm believer that they could come back just like the Suns did the last round.  One thing is for sure: Dallas is LUCKY. This series could easily be 3-1 Spurs, and if they think Game 5 is going to be a cake walk, they are sorely mistaken! Spurs are the defending champs, and they CERTAINLY won't go down without a fight..! How great that fight actually is...? We'll just have to see Wednesday! =)
