    Jazz are shooting 23 of 106 this season in "above the break" THREES.

    Never heard of that term, but Jazz are clearly not in rhythm vs us.

    I don't think they're a crap team and I think it's actually disrespectful to the Rockets to saying that they are. You are lessening how dominant the Rockets have been by suggesting that the Jazz aren't good. The fact they are a good team is why what the Rockets are doing is so impressive.

    Now let's just hope they don't follow in the Warriors footsteps and let the Jazz come by from a huge deficit.

    He has really good lift on his pull up mid range, never off balance or anything, he should be allowed to shoot it freely because teams don't even guard that against us

    Not really lucky, Jazz are incompetent on Offense, it was known before the series.

    They just went on another level. Below average.

    Will only be comfortable if it's a 20 point lead with 3 minutes to go in the game

    I was thinking the same thing. Even though we’re winning we need to practice good habits, especially for the next round.

    It's a mix of both.

    All about matchups.

    Utah was using a 10 or 11 man rotation in the regular season.

    They can't be doing that in the playoffs. More role players scored, the Playoffs are about Superstars.

    If your starters are only average, then the whole team does seem average at best. (in terms of scoring)
