    Capela outplayed Gobert on both ends. That's nice to see.

    nice of Harden to drop 44 and 41 in the 2 playoff games I’ve attended so far

    But, maybe the 18 points would offset the negatives. :)

    Well that was a boring game... although that should have been a 30+ pt blowout.

    The starters looked great

    - Luc played good D. Offense is rusty
    - EG ... yikes

    This series should be short.

    Sloppy 2nd half, but overall a solid win. The Rockets need to end this quickly. The Jazz are crap offensively without Rubio.

    Harden has b****ed at our crowd. It's pathetic and I'll continue to point that out. No excuse.

    It was absolutely satisfactory. Not great, but good enough to win = satisfactory. We got out to a big lead by halftime, so our second half goal was to NOT give up that lead.

    Utah played as well as they can hope to play against us in Houston and were never even very close to making a game of this.

    I disagree. They let them make runs and our end game is not Utah. If we give those runs to gsw then those runs become lost leads.

    TC seriously sounded like your local library to start the game...it was embarrassing, but amazing at the same time

    y’all could probably hear me sipping on my drink in the upper bowl, it was that quiet

    we have the worst home atmosphere in the playoffs without question

    This is comletely false. All Houston teams feel and deal with the leave early beat traffic crowds. And it's not new either, been happening as long as I can remember.

    That's gonna affect him the whole series plus no Rubio, sweep should be imminent

    Great game by James. Gordon seriously needs to get his chit together, and if he plays like this again against the Warriors, I say we trade him next here. He's way too inconsistent.
