We can easily regroup and win 2 in utah, and close this thing out in houston. Rockets are 5-2, they need to regroup and figure out what made them the best team in the league. This wont be a pivot in the series.
They look like they don't want to be there. .. like they've looked this entire postseason save for that one 50 point quarter. Bad starts, bad defense, bad shooting , you name it.
Not only that but we WON the REGULAR SEASON so this pales in comparison, pfft, playoffs, over-rated......I kid I kid, We come out on in Utah fire we'll be fine.....we better
well the good news is that with a game on Friday we'll only have to endure two days of whining and crybabies this time around
winning 2 in Utah is gonna be TOUGH come out playing like they did in the 1st half again and they’ll be down 2-1 and looking at an upset
Rockets will be shocked at how pumped up the crowd is in Utah after playing in a library the first two games. It will be an adjustment that the team has to make.
It's a big deal. Is it en vogue to not care or something? The Rockets should treat this like a big deal and come out trying to take out limbs. They squandered a chance to punch an injured team in the mouth.. I can't stand how cool the Rockets are. I thought CP was going to be the one to bring that annoying , "come on guys" energy. He is too cool now too.
It's a big deal to the Jazz. They are going to be feeling good going into the next game. I expect the Rockets to win the series, but it may not be a short series.
We definitely can, but it's also possible we lose, they're a great home team. We should've really won this game to put some pressure on them, now it's not like we can win in Utah, we are forced to win there.
I disagree wholeheartedly. This loss is a big deal and should be a big deal. Because when it's a big deal, you look at the tape, practice, and figure out ways to adjust for the next game. If you just shrug it off as "meh" then you're not giving the other team credit. And at that point you get laughed out of the playoffs.
They showed some horrendous trends though. Chris Paul simply can’t stay in front of guards, and hasn’t looked like himself these last 2-3 months. Ryan Anderson is a $20 million black hole on the bench. Gordon has been a complete non factor for the last two months. I’ve been optimistic all season, but I’m having serious doubts about us competing with a healthy Warriors squad. They don’t go down 19 in the first half to an inferior team, and if we pull **** like that against them, they won’t open the door for a comeback like Utah did. This loss is more than just another one to brush off.
Lot of people here would make great cattle. Calm and serene right up to the second they are slaughtered. Trade Gordon the playoff choker
Harden loves competition, remember him loving to shut the crowd down when we was on the road. We will win 2 easy in Utah.
