    It's worth mentioning that (I think...?) they gave the Rockets the lowest % chance of winning the series of all of the high seeds. This is projected to be the closest first round series. Gotta admit I'm not 100% confident in our defense.

    Watch we sweep them. Won't be because Utah sucks it will be because we are better than what a 4th seed looks like.

    Agreed...although I'm thinking 5 game series...This team has a pretty remarkable record since the break...People are putting way too much into a 1 point loss in OKC

    H2H was 2-2, but most of the games were mid-December or earlier. I don't think that Rockets team then can be compared to the one now. Even in February, when the Rockets beat them by 27, they did it w/o Capela, Paul, or House. They did have Faried and Rivers though. For crying out loud, Ennis had big minutes for a lot of these games.

    If the Rockets TCB, this series is over in 5, and that only because I expect the league to put their thumb on the scale in Game 3.

    I remember when we won 65 games and they thought ****ing Minnesota was taking us to the limit. Utah isn’t a bad team but they aren’t hanging with Houston.

    This guy needs to do a simulation between the 95 Rockets and Bulls.

    That step-back % map is unreadable and teaches me little even when I figure it out.

    I like his Style Charts, though. Takes getting used to what each side means. And they, have to be viewed against the other Playoff Teams. But once you get a feel for what other teams look like, the Rockets one makes so much sense, and is very beautiful...lulz

    Depends on how we start the series.

    If we are caught looking ahead to GSW and lose one of the first 2 home games, we could end up in a 6-7 game series.

    One has to keep in mind that Mitchel is not the rookie from last season, Rubio is healthy, and, (most importantly) Jazz have been 5th seed in past two playoffs, upsetting the 4th seeded clippers and OKC.

    Jazz are not scrubs and the series should be approached with a decent level of respect for the opposition.
