I hope Chandler magically heals completely by tomorrow, because I don't think my soul can take another game where Cook starts.
I think Delfino is playing tomorrow, so he'll most likely start. I didn't mind Cook starting as much as the minutes he played.
This is the first year I do not hate the Jazz. I have hated them my whole basketball life. No Malone or Sloan or phonies.
No, not screwed... we're playing at home, remember. It's harder to win without Parsons, maybe 50/50. I think we're the favorites in this one if Parsons is healthy which unfortunately seems unlikely.
What was the overall opinion on the first game against them? I missed it unfortunately. Hope we pull out a win.
Harden had the flu but played most of the first half and we fell behind by 23. Harden sat out the second half and 6 minutes into the 3rd quarter the team was on a roll and cut the lead to 10. Then Sampson pulled Lin for TD and by the end of the quarter we were behind by 15. We never got any momentum going after that.
Harden >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.Lin face it. Dont bash Harden like you allways do to propup lin.
For the Jazz losing Favor is big but Kanter has been pretty good in the last few ames so Asik needs to be on his game to combat the Big Al and Kanter combo.
Actually I'm not bashing Harden at all. He didn't pull Lin when the team was doing well did he? He didn't play himself for 17 minutes when he was sick and couldn't do anything did he? I'm blaming the coach. Also the way the coach is using Harden is a big mistake. Houston will never beat the good teams with him playing the point and going ISO all the time. Also it's boring to watch.
Losing to the Jazz ruins my whole week. Especially losing to them in Houston. At least they won't have their fans to boo every call against their team. But since the whole lower bowl will be skipping the game and the upper bowl will be full of families for kids night... Sigh

Last game, Cook attempted more shots than Mr. Lin, 17 shots!!! Good or bad, I don't know but Cook should never be able to attempt 17 shots...
If it's any consolation, the Jazz are a miserable road team. It's only at home in Utah where their strange mystic powers to get calls and win games are triggered. I don't see them having much of a chance against Houston this evening, especially if Parsons will be available.
