    Would be nice to just not even give them a chance. Jump out early.

    To be able to go into Utah and take both of them decisively like we did after the game 2 loss is something we have never seen out of the Rockets in the past. Now we need the next step to be putting away a team in a close out game and not drag the series out. This is what championship and top teams do and the Rockets need to do the same thing.

    I don't know why, but I'm inexplicably nervous about this

    Yes it is. CP will be out there making sure he gets to the WCFs for the first time. He really wants this. Jazz will play hard and try early but our role players will make their shots tonight and open it up. It will be a blow out.

    I just wish Mad Max would show up, the crazy trash talking version. Would be awesome if he could get into it with a player, though they don’t have a flopping Okur, Boozer or girl from Russia in their team this time.
