Rockets vs. Blazers game thread: Last chance

No more hope, no more assurances. This season is depressing enough. I'm not going to hold out hope for a win tonight. Just comfort myself in the knowledge that a loss means there is no hope for the rest of the season.

I've written dozens of these game threads and no longer know what to say about this team in them. Everything is meaningless this year. Yes, this game has implications and yes, the Rockets could win it, but every time I get my hopes up that that could happen, this team shits all over them. Hope is dead. This season is over. Go Rockets?
