Blazers Fans, It has truly been a privilege

Good luck against the Lakers.

just kidding, i don’t really care who wins.

Go Rockets! (until next season)

It’s been a pleasure to read the posts from you and several of your Dream Shake colleagues. Good luck with the next round.

We don’t respect LA, so BEAT LA!

I could do it again

just kidding.

Tonight we learned which team deserved to move on to play the Lakers. Good luck to Houston in round 2.

Now back to my sorrows.

you guys go all the way to the finals and kick the crap out of the Cavs. Always liked the Rockets out of all the WC teams. Beat LA, and I will feel O so good!

even though i wanted to murder him all series.

thanks for the post. 60+ next year sounds good!

That’s all I can say.

Thanks for stopping by.

Cause next year we’ll be back. More experience. More swagger come playoff time. However, that being said, F the L*kers.

especially for our first one in 6 years. I agree with your feelings about the L*kers and J*zz. Please, please, please kick K0be and the L*kers butt. We will be rooting for you!

it completely changes your team. I don’t know why it took him six game to get it (or five and a half because he started last game). I wish he had waited a few more. If he plays this way, aggressive, toward the basket, you have a decent shot

And for being so gracious in victory. It’s refreshing in comparison to the fans of some other team whose name we won’t mention. Other than a few good natured jabs in the beginning that were probably misconstrued by folks on both sides, the Houston fans have made it a fun and friendly rivalry.

Now go kill the Lakers, I beg you.

You guys have a solid team and you deserved to move on. Beat the Lake show!

I went to Rockets games and cheered them on (except when they played the Blazers). I will now quit calling them the “Rockettes” since the series is over. Easy transition -

GO ROCKETS! BEAT la!

Wait, wrong thread? Okay, beat LA! Beat LA!

It has been a fun challenging series, that will benefit both teams going forward. I also enjoyed the most of the time very intelligent and entertaining debate between the fans of both teams even if we had to agree to disagree on some things.

But yes, it was both a gripping and agonizing first-round tilt. I don’t have admiration for the aesthetics of Rockets basketball, but your team’s grit and determination is admirable. I have my doubts about your chances against L.A. but will be ecstatic if you can kick some arrogant L*ker butt. As always their fans deserve to be knocked down another peg or two.

Except for Von Wafer, I really like your players, especially Scola and Shane Battier. That guy (Battier) is a winner and I hope he keeps winning this season. I find Yao, well, boring to watch, but if he can dunk on Bynum I’ll get excited.

Best of luck!

I was really pulling for you to win the last game of the season. Then I wanted Houston to die a horrible agonizing death in embarrassing fashion in a first round playoff sweep exit.

Now I want them to win again. Good luck in round 2.

but I’m also kind of glad our guys had this experience. This Houston team was one of the worst match-ups we could have had, and the end result just emphasizes this. But I think our guys really grew up in this series. They were forced out of their comfort zone, forced to adapt, forced to play a style of game they hadnt before. So this I think will be a valuable learning experience. The dialogue with the Dream Shakers has been great! You guys are a fun fan base to spar with. Good luck in the next round vs the Fakers! I am now officially rooting for Houston to go all the way!

Being buddy buddy right now, call me childish or whatever, but right now Houston is basically the guy that stole your girlfriend, for me it’s hard to be cool with that guy right away no matter how good of a guy they are.

I’ll be there to visit as you dust off those excremental Lxkers! – Elgin
