    They "missed" a bunch of calls, and at least one flagrant foul.

    I believe the Warriors won't be able to bother Harden at the rim as much as Gobert with his length, but Draymond is a tough guy and dirty too. Harden will fight back against them. That incredible jumper against them was no fluke. Klay and KD will be a tough defensive matchup for him and he will have to conserve his energy against them. Just focus on Game 4, and sweep the Jazz for now.

    Harden scored only 8 points through 3 quarters, and 14 in the 4th. Safe to say this was a complete team win. We don't win this most difficult game on the road against a desperate Jazz team with great contributions from everybody.

    Against the Worriers, if the Rockets are to prevail in that series, others will have to contribute as well. I've already stated team depth this year is much better and I think it will be the difference against those latte-drinking californians.

    the warriors usually get one game like this against harden. I imagine we go to 6-7 games again anyway.

    That was it from Utah. That was their best shot. They had Harden ice cold and they still couldn’t put us away. They might still sneak a win but I doubt it. No way Harden shoots that poorly again.

    Just saw the presser with CP and James. Man those two have such great chemistry. You can tell they have built a bond and friendship together. Legit hope CP retires here .

    The Jazz have to be wondering how the hell they lost this game. This was a really even game. Both teams missed a ton of three pointers and a ton of free throws. In the end it came down to a couple of rebounds. Yes, rebounding is not our strength. But, Tucker came down with two huge rebounds in the final minute.

    Now, lets win game 4 and have few days rest before we play the Warriors.

    Sure it does.

    You love to complain about Mike.

    Now you are trying to take credit and praise him weirdly for things he’s not even doing lol.

    We’re still jacking 3s. And lots of uncontested ones as usual.

    Playing a full rotation? You mean the team is finally fully healthy with everyone available? Weird.

    More point in the paint? You mean against the team that is laying out a red carpet to the paint for Harden. Couldn’t be!?!?
