The Rockets have fallen far from last year. So many horrible off-season choices, no depth at all. These recent TERRIBLE losses just show that we have absolutely NO supporting cast... we can't do shit without T-Mac and Yao... or with just one of them. They're like a set these days, haha.

they had their head in the right place when they picked up Swift. he was just a phony. he's been a complete bust this season. and i don't know why in the world they traded Mike James for a knucklehead like Alston. but to their credit, they have absolutely been ravaged by injuries. T-Mac and Yao, is tough. but without Swift, Sura, Barry...they have no roster! good luck to them in the future...

I know, injuries are murder. Damn, I don't think I've ever seen a Rockets season with this many injuries.

yeah me neither, but they were still supposed to have all the parts to be a great team. im not so sure they would have done as good if the roster were healthy. i don't think Van Gundy is the problem. i just don't think he's coaching the right players to fit his mentality.

I don't think Van Gundy is the problem either. I don't know, at the time the trades seemed great, but now they just seem like a huge mistake, no one is delivering.

i STILL wish the nets picked up Swift, i think he'd fit in the system better. I do root for the Rockets though, every year the get screwed with SOMETHING, and they're always alot better than they show. Look at it this way, atleast you didnt pick up Kwame Brown...

swift is going to be traded very soon.

letting mike james go was stupid, he's the most sought after PG in the nba right now.

T-mac and Yao need one more player to compliment them, and then I think they could be a dominating team. I honestly thought they'd finish second or third in the west this year.
