    This is the kind of win championship teams win!

    Remember guys, there is no such a thing as losing pretty.

    Get the brooms ready cause we took their best shot (including the refs) and survived.

    Clint can barely open his eyes in this post game show. It's amazing he can see anything and catch lobs. What the hell happened to his eyes!? I forgot it was 420 yesterday. Did Clint partake in the festivities?

    I've grown to accept and love Gerald for who he is, a crazy player who plays horrible defense but will make big shots, at least i always know what's coming when he plays. When guys like Brewer, MCW and Shumpert came into the game i started hyperventilating.

    Ok. What's up with Capela's eyes? Is he stoned for the interview?

    Most encouraging to me is that the team did pick up Jimmy when he was having a bad game....we need to play as a TEAM. There have been many,many times when I hoped for everything that someone would stand up to compliment Jmmy's scoring. Tonight the TEAM did stand up when he was having a bad night and he looked more like the player we all know.

    Infection-forced bird box challenge.

    Here’s hoping it clears up by next game

    Yeah. Mitchell had more free throw attempts than Harden tonight and Harden was on the floor most of the game.

    Testy win, Harden did great despite bad shooting, Gordon and Tucker are awesome, Capela should be more active on board and defending block, James could go back a little bit faster, just happy to have CP3

    Utah had the second best record since the all star break after us with the best defense and 3rd best offensive rating for a reason. They are borderline elite team at home. This was a huge win

    I also noted that he had an odd face when he went to the bench in the 3rd quarter and they showed him from close, looked like he was falling asleep...

    I forgot it was national weed day yesterday. Weed is legal in Switzerland, right? Is weed legal in Utah?

    I agree. The performance in the 4th, including nice defense on Mitchell, was impressive. He could have folded, but he didn't.

    Also, tip of the cap to Gerald Green. He gave us good minutes and hit some big shots.

    Normally, I cringe whenever he checks into the game.

    No idea. But his eyes are blood red. And his speech is slower than usual. I think they are celebrating the win.

    Clint's eyes were bloodshot BEFORE THE GAME! Rockets celebrated a win before the game started confirmation!

    That Jazz homecourt advantage is truly unreal. After the Snyder technical and the crowd started chanting "refs you suck", the Jazz got literally every call for the lightest touches.

    The refs are human after all but hey, maybe we should start doing that at TC after crappy calls.

    Could you imagine sweeping the jazz at home? My dick getting hard just thinking about it.

    The dude and the chick calling the game were beyond awful. They stunk it up, big time. The idiot b!tch never said an intelligent word the entire game. Why do we get these people? Why do we get the latest game? It worked out OK tonight, the game being late, because it had barely started when we got home from seeing Seth Myers at the Paramount Theatre (he was freakin' hilarious!). If Seth hadn't been so funny, I probably would have keeled over with a heart attack during the game. He helped my body bank some good vibes, and man, were they needed!
