    Loool yea sure, it didn't have anything to do with us bricking shots and bad defense and Jazz going 46% from 3, no it was Exum the amazing Harden stopper. We'll be fine.

    After getting humiliated in our own house and having Mitchell clowning us on Twitter
    we'd BETTER be fired up. It's take no prisoners from here on out.

    Way too many fans here underestimating Utah. I always thought that it was going to be extremely tough to win @ Utah after I watched their OKC series.

    Our team probably way underestimated them too and now they are going to have to show how mentally tough they are because Utah fans don't hold back when heckling. They also have a louder crowd than even Oracle this playoffs.

    They'll call out you and the rest of your family with racist remarks most here probably wouldn't repeat in their life time. Worst part is the NBA won't do **** about it and players will get fined if they retaliate.

    I woke up to a text from a Jazz fan saying "SOMEONE BETTER RESCUE HARDEN ON EXUM ISLAND."

    Great way to start the day.

    Completely agree. Maybe I'm over exaggerating, but I feel like CP3 has been playing like a glorified role player for a few months. He has to be more than that.

    2 offensive fouls that were not fouls
    1 knee extended to stop Jame's progress
    2 invading James's landing space on shots.

    That last turnover was baffling
    This is the second time he has had a bad turnover in the final minute
    This one cost us.

    Been saying this. His units without Harden have been very mediocre.

    Rockets favored by 4 on the road on that loud, crazy inbred house of theirs.

    Let's prove the odds makers correct.

    I’m convinced game 2 was thrown so that Tillman could line up his pockets.

    A lot went against us in game 2 from a variance standpoint .... but that doesn't mean we shouldn't be disappointed in how the team played .

    Someone needs to get Ryan and Gordon some cocaine before the game to get their confidence up .

    James and Clint played well , the defense had a good third and start to the 4th .... but that's about it as far as positives go .

    Overall the jazz got WAY better quality looks than we did , and they executed on them .

    The refs may have screwed us in the end ... but we shouldn't have let it get to that position where they had the power to dictate the outcome like that .

    Paul and Gordon need to play MUCH better . James and Clint have been carrying us so far and they could be due for a bad game .

    Of course , when things get tight ... MDA opts to shorten the rotation . In a word he's predictable... which is ok when our shots fall , but it's troubling because things are bound to not always go your way .

    We need a defensive effort like we had vs MIN in game 2 .

    The problem is that we are facing far better coaching now .
