Absolutely ridiculous that they're still in this series. The Mavs rolled over in the face of diversity, the Spurs... did they even make the playoffs?

These men continue to put their head down and work it out like a stable of horses. Talk about inspirational.

It all comes down to Sunday - Let's go Rockets!!!
 
Their attitude is incredible. Aaron Brooks said it best, "We still have no chance, but we'll keep on playing."

One of the most likable underdogs in recent history. I love these Rockets.
 
I don't want to rain on the parade, but you guys do know we won't get ANY calls in game 7, right?

Nontheless, this has been a great ride for these underdog Rockets.
 
Yeah, the Mavs sure rolled over after getting robbed on a bad call at the end of game 3, fighting back from a 14 point deficit to win game 4, and closing a 17 point Game 5 deficit to 4 points before ultimately falling.

That's just the definition of "rolling over in diversity."

Good series by the Rockets. They caused match up issues for the Lakers and they also seemed to get better in some areas once Yao went out. The Lakers shouldn't have dropped game 1 if they were a better team that plays hard every night. If they win that game then this series would have been over in 5. But Rockets showed toughness and it went 7. Though a few of those games were blowouts so overall this series was very boring to watch.

The refs were no factor in game 7. For all the talk it amounted to nothing more than the insecuries of fans.

Houston shot less than 37% from the field and was only 5/20 from 3. Brooks, Scola, Landry were all non spectacular when they had been giving LA fits earlier in the series. LA outrebounded Houston by 22 in game 7.
 
As a long suffering Rockets fan, I can assure you that had the game been close, you would have seen the refs come into play. As it was, it simply wasn't necessary.

Hard to argue with your other points. This team definitely overachieved given the injuries. We'll see if they, (Morey, et al
) can keep them together or improve. T-Mac?

Thanks for a great season Rockets!
