Probably everyone outside of Houston, Texas knows that the Houston Rockets suck before the playoffs even began. They are a slow, inaccurate shooting, two dimensional team. Post Yao, pass McGrady.. Everyone opposing team knows that. Dumb Van Gundy can't coach jack. He base his philosophy on Defense and yet for Game 7, Do or Die, the Rockets gave up 101 points, +50% shooting to Utah. Alot can be said of this game.
For one, we will never come close to winning a championship with Yao or McGrady. McGrady is like a bad curse to any team when coming to the playoffs. Lost with Orlando, twice with Rockets in the first round. Yao is too slow, immobile, and plain out right a turnover machine when he plays quicker more physical teams.
And of course our role and bench players who were pretty much non-existent. Alston can't shoot nor can he penetrate nor can he defend. Hayes is just Hayes. Battier is inconsistent. Head lost his head in the playoffs. Howard is a dumb idiot who can't shoot jack especially in Game 7 when it counts. Mutumbo needs to retire.
Gosh for a team that on paper might look good, they were outplayed, outhustled, and outmatched. Lets hope next season we will not see most of these players again.
Van Gundy, Alston, Howard, Head, Yao, and McGrady needs to go. Yes Yao and McGrady! We can do better. We must do better.

I share the same feeling with you It is so aggrevating watching the Rockets play at times, mostly during the playoffs. Usually, the playoffs brings out the best in a team but in our case, it brought out the worst. You are right, these players need to go. If Yao is our"franchise players", they we have a really bad franchise.

I'd say JVG days are numbered. He will probably be fired for his shortcomings and style of play. It is so boring watching the Rockets play.

Been a long time Rockets fan but another dissapointing playoff run.. Up 2-0 and losing it at home? This team definitely needs a facelift or it will be the same tune over and over.

I don't believe Rockets new coach Aldeman will bring anything new because he does not have the right players to do it with. We need TRADES! These players suck.

My take on the pathetic Rockets is that the coach and the players dont match. Coach has different style of play but the players do not complement the system. Thus you have a team running with their heads chopped off.
