    Too many open threes for one of the best three point shooter in the NBA

    This needs to stop..Gordon has been terrible on guarding him

    Going back to Utah 1-1 won’t be fun. Rockets came out lackadaisical early and couldn’t keep the lead.

    Let’s see if they have one run left in them.

    They aren't running the defense, they are doubling the driver - they are supposed to be switching EVERYTHING.

    Don't care what anyone says. Ariza doesn't have the foot speed and it's caused overhelping all series.

    Jazz breaking down the Rox D getting great shots and knocking them down. Also the only players having positive impact tonight are Harden, Capela and Tucker. The rest have not been good enough. Jazz are playing their asses off tonight.

    Exactly. Mitchell has played well but he’s not exactly dominating this game. Uncontested made 3’s is the difference.

    Losing one is fine. We shouldn’t lose one at home though.

    Our defense is really overrated. Why are we okay with giving up open looks for three? Whatever "Moreyball" would be considered on defense, our D would not be it.

    Our guys can't stay in front of their guards... there's not much to switch on.
