This is the most embarrassing series loss in franchise history

Absolutely right
Worst ever

 

No team has ever came back from 0-3 and I promise you its not starting now.

 

Couldn’t have happened to a better coach.

 

We made it into the history books!

 

It's laundry day and I have two t-shirts to choose from in dressing for going to the gym. My sweaty cotton poly blend or my 100% cotton Rockets shirt that fits perfectly and makes me look less fat.

I'm rolling with black sweaty cotton poly blend. Because I feel like Id have to wear a paper bag over my head if I rep'd the Rockets t. So embarrassed. And the fact that Ime continues to blame his players and take no accountability himself makes him just a bad as KD.

 

The only Rockets series I felt as bad about was when they got clowned by the Jazz for 2 straight playoffs first with JVG and then with Adelman.

Yao inability to get a key rebound over Boozer & Okur & matt harping repeatedly in game 7 at home was crushing - that Utah team wasn't even very good but they whipped is twice in a row.

 

Wow yeah ancient memory unlocked. I wish i hadnt. Those were some heartbreak times. Mike James was fun to watch. I think he was on that team.

 

Ancient? That barely happened yesteryears

 

From Japan.

 

Here's an interesting stat:
Bronny James outscored (5pts) our entire bench (3pts)...we have a roster problem.
Stone and Ime must go

 

Yep!!!!! Stone has failed and that largely has to do with banking on flawed players to become unflawed!

Amen and Sengun have to get better at shooting.

Jabari I actually see some promise, but needs to get better defensively/mentally.

Tari continue to work on becoming a good lights out shooter and defense.

Reed needs to work on PNR ball handling

I still have high hopes for Reed long term.

Worried about the other guys shooting(mainly Sengun/Amen). That’s not an easy fix. Lakers defense this series has been. Drop everyone in the paint and pray the Rockets don’t hit open shots.

 

Bronny’s 5pts was more than our entire bench

 

That’s chicken feed compared to learning about your young core in real time.

 

We had a point guard on the roster?

 

And after what we’ve seen from him this year, and the playoffs in particular, why exactly would that be a bad thing? Lol.

 

Nah. This is not the most embarrassing. With KD it could have been but with KD playing 1 half of basketball and then checking out and tanking it the 2nd half and not showing up for the other 2 games, it just exposed how bad the roster makeup is. Without KD and Adam’s and FVV this roster doesn’t even get here. Couldn’t even get through the play in. You can slobber on LeBron for beating a trash team just like he did in his entire Eastern Conference days or you can just feel relief we got exposed and know what to do now and relief you don’t get truly shat on in round 2 against OKC.
Rejoice and watch the LeRoided one and JJ and that **** Lakers fanbase get absolutely and truly and genuinely embarrassed. It’ll be glorious.

 

KD was underwater treadmilling, and doing other things of that nature

 

I felt embarrassed to be a Rockets fan the way that game ended. The original Dream Team made competition look silly, sometimes you'll see it in early rounds of the NCAA tournament e.g. backcourt turnovers, opposing players taking shots just hoping to catch rim and save face.

Bari took a short jumper a minute into overtime where he didn't even time his release naturally, and it clanked off the back rim hard. The last shot Alpi took in regulation was from a location I've never seen him shoot a hook from before. So many shovel handoffs 4 feet behind the three point line to start the offense. Team was scared to make natural passes, dribble, shoot with any level of confidence. They let the Laker set up on defense every time and they don't have a refined half court offense to challenge anything the Lakers did.
