    Won’t count. Either way I’m nervous as hell.

    Okay. Don’t attack Gobert. Play shitty Harden isolation offense. I’m done caring.

    Rockets starters have been killing the Jazz's starters.

    But right now we cannot freaking rebound. This is where you want a bigger guy like House at SF but you need Gordon's shooting in there. No easy decision there

    Rebounding will be our death.

    This series needs to be killed with fire

    Seriously...what is going on with these foul calls? It feels so random for us while they get every call. Harden and CP3 been in foul trouble for like this whole series.

    Making Rubio and the scrub from Baylor look like KD and Curry

    Gotta do a much better job on the defensive backboard. We need 5 guys rebounding the ball.

    Is it really a Houston vs Utah playoff series if the rockets can’t grab a defensive rebound to save their lives?

    Turnovers and lack of defensive rebounding are killing the rockets. CP3 single-handedly keeping the Rockets in this game.

    Our rebounding is horrendous. Even when we get hands to them we either hit it out or just fumble them.

    Rockets are so frustrating to watch man. I'm trying to not say bad words.

    CP3 needs to be initiating, Harden is a bit telegraphy on his passes, Rubio is picking him up with steals.

    Wow, a travel, self-pass, offensive goaltend, and shotclock violation uncalled on the same Gobert play? That's what I call versatile.

    If Rubio is killing it on the offensive boards, we have a glaring weakness that other teams will take advantage of in future matchups
