    "Jazz with their highest-scoring half the season... fans are up and applauding the effort of the players..."

    Sigh.

    Jazz should be up by 20 plus. Rox can still win this game.

    Was hoping for a good close out to the half but lets make some adjustment and come out strong

    The question is which team should I hate more as a Rockets fan, the Mavs or the Jazz?

    That last missed 3 by Harden would have really been great. But oh well, I'm not worried yet. Hopefully we start the 3rd with some energy and defense

    12 point lead is not insurmountable. Harden played like concentrated garbage.

    God , our team d is pretty out of sorts . Utah shot the three very well . All things considered I'll take being down only 12 . If we can get our own three falling , and fix some of these help D issues then I'll feel good about our chances ( unless the refs decide to **** us... As they are wont to in Utah)

    Gobert changes everything. He may be 7'2 but his standing reach is like 10' ... Much more intimidating than super bigs like Yao or Muresan.

    Rockets play undisciplined defense at times.

    Over helping is a result of lack of trust.

    couldn't make a timely shot and coach never calls momentum stopping timeouts.

    Hood is also throwing out the elbow everytime he attacks the defender, we need to put Pat on him to flop a couple of times

    The Rockets have two offensive options that are above average for the league -- James Harden and three-point shooters. Their defense isn't good enough to keep them in games when both struggle.

    Well at least we know that we will hit at least 6 3s to keep our streak going of 10 made 3s per game.

    If we score 13 more points than them next half we should win this
