Haha

 

What a game. Harden has become a all time great now. His playoffs play has been stellar. Really good.


Cp3 was great for the most part. Loved his aggressive mentality.

Clint was a beast and has out played and out defended the so called defensive player of the year thus far. Max money is guaranteed.

Eric looked like the Eric we love. Knocked his shots down and attacked the bucket

 

Tomorrow's headline:

Harden Slaps Home Court Advantage Out of Jazz's Hands

 

AND the Pels get one over on the Warriors.
HOW SWEET IT IS

 

I’m drunk.
May have posted this already.


Rockets are bipolar

 

He looks like the Mayhem dude.

 

Probably already posted

 

No one played more than 30 minutes either

Rocket River

 

Kobe's advice to Donovan Mitchell actually worked against him tonight. Kobe told him to be aggressive and try to draw fouls...but Donovan was driving in sloppily thinking the Rockets players were going to play the same low energy D that they did in game 2. He was either getting his **** blocked or missing badly. Thank you Kobe.

 

Great bounce back win. Finally they took the game seriously on defense. If they play defense that locked in every night, they'll actually have a chance against the Warriors. Need to see that effort from here on out.

Offensively still struggled, but the first quarter being the quarter we were hot for was the best case scenario to set the tone.

But yes, the game was definitely won on the defensive end. That was one of the best performances I've seen all season. Impressive.

 

Damnit Anderson IF YOU WOULD JUST SHOOT THE BALL YOU WOULD GET PLAYING TIME. Oh well.

 

Phase II: Go out on Sunday night and drive a stake through their heart. It will be the pivotal game of the series. Then end it and move on with a win in Houston.

 

Eric Gordon was so ready from the get go, I loved it.

 

Ariza played the best d on Mitchell, like ever. Dude got blanketed in the 1st half. Shout to Tucker too.

 

Thought Chris was more aggressive and went for the mid range. His ending fg wasn’t good but think it got worst in the 2nd half where it was garbage time

 

If you come across any Jazz fan tonight or tomorrow, be like this...

 

Anyone else proud of Eric Gordon. Obviously, he should be doing this more often but we're a nightmare to face when he actually shows up. Still took a few dumb ass 3's but his shot selection was much better tonight.

He even hit a couple of midrange jumpers which he's been bricking all postseason.
