This will bring haters out, talking about 1st round exits. Hopefully the injuries will not be an issue for next year. It does show the heart he brought to the franchise......

The Rockets have had many injuries the past couple years, and that's what's kept them from getting past the first round of the playoffs.
By the way, if you take the letters from "ROCKETS", you can scramble them to get "STOCKER".

This guy should get a heart transplant while he's in there. Hasn't had an ounce of heart since.... well, he's got no heart. When Yao Ming calls you soft, you are basically called the pillsbury doughboy.

Didn't know Yao called him soft? Missed that one, but if it is true Yao should probably look in the mirror and stand up to China and skip the olympics... His lively hood, and his loyalty should be to doing whats right for his team... the Rockets

"It does show the heart he brought to the franchise......"

come again?
- what is your definiton of heart?
don't you have to TRY and play defense to be considered to have heart?

Hopefully the Rockets can make a comeback next year because I don't see the other Texas teams improving any time soon. Of course, Houston is going to have to worry about GSW and Portland trying to make the playoffs.

Houston suffers another first round loss....but wait....what about next season? San Antonio is most likely coming to the end of their dynasty while the Dallas Mavericks franchise has hardly proven itself. If Houston can make one or two solid acquisitions, they should challenge for the top spot in the SW division with New Orleans. Next year could be the breakout year. Portland will need one more year before they are playoff-ready, while Golden State is looking to rebuild as Baron Davis is most likely going to be traded (maybe to Houston?!?!?!?)

I expect the Rockets to rocket to the top next year.

I think T-Mac is a good ball player but he just isn't a winner.

McGrady isn't a clutch player such as Larry Bird, MJ or Magic. Those players never used injuries or other excuses to explain their inability to win. Kobe is the closest thing we will see to Jordan for a while.

I really think it's time to put him down!

Drunk Eli is Gold! | 05/07/08, 12:02 PM

I despise the Rockets, I do not despise T-Mac. I hope that next year he can stay healthy and help Houston earn 1st round home court adv. so that maybe he can advance to the second round.

Big Mike Dizzle | 05/07/08, 01:41 PM

McGrady is the laziest superstar in the league.. No heart.. Doesnt condition himself.. Always sitting out when he feels a little pain..

Without Yao, the Rockets are nothing.. But with him, next year theyll be really tough..

What am I going to do with you bro?

Texasmade | 05/07/08, 04:26 PM

I don't see any of the Texas teams doing as well as they did this season. Also you must be dreaming if you think the Warriors are gonna ship Baron to the Rockets for anything less than T-Mac himself.

Twizlamic | 05/07/08, 07:30 PM

McGrady, I hope you read this, b/c you still have fans out there who believe in you.

TexasThom | 05/10/08, 01:11 AM

I agree with Texasmade, Rockets will rock next season. Obviously some of you are a little confused. T-Mac is not the one whining to the refs everytime someone breathes on him. That will be Kobe. And no, Kobe is not the closest thing to MJ, do your homework folks do the research and know what you are talking about before you say things. T-Mac has pulled his weight everytime. And for that my friends he will eventually be rewarded, very soon. Add that one missing piece of the puzzle to the roster, and here we go Rockets....Champs. All of you T-Mac haters, chill.
