I expect the Rockets to come out focused, and intense, and I expect JVG to have found a way to get the guys the shots they want in a spot in which they are comfortable. I expect Houston to come out ON FIRE and put Utah on it's heals. The Jazz playoffs essentially end here....TONIGHT......Rockets up 3-1 after tonight baby !!! Who is with me? CURAHEE !!!!!! DD
Hell ya! I expect Tracy to take it to the hole on a regular basis and Yao to get better position and shoot a higher %. Luther, Juwan and Chuck have much better games tonite! 3-1 going back home
i'm with you. i think the rockets are gonna come out tight...but go nuts in the second half. and have the game pretty well secured with 5 minutes left to play.
The Rockets have this one in the bag with more than 6 minutes to go in the 4th...and the human victory cigar, V-Span makes his playoff debut. GO ROCKETS !! DD
Agreed. The Jazz have not demonstrated an ability to beat us in this series. The Rox beat themselves and gave themselves no chance of victory with their pathetic play! T-mac knows if tonight the series knots up the voices of "can't get it done in the playoffs will get louder ... " The Rockets IMO MUST take this game because looking ahead ... the Mavs series looks to be going 7 and that's should the Mavs be able to arouse from their slumber. Bottom line, the Rox are the better team and they need to come out and show it! Smarter, more efficient play plus, dogged aggressiveness on the boards to negate any fast break opportunities will put the Jazz in a game they don't want to play. Boozer getting 41 in game 2 was an aberration and the Jazz know it!
It's funny, my brother isn't a Rockets fan (he doesn't hate them, just not a hardcore fan like me, he wants them to do well), and after that game he told me that that was a wake up call because he didn't think the Rocks should have lost that game. Pretty interesting hearing from people with different perspectives that kind of got my attention.
Look like it has to get worse before it get better. Last game was the worst game Rockets ever play. I expect they are coming out on fire tonight.
man that intro the rockets had a home was awesome....the quotes from 300. "This is where we stand, and Fight!"
I expect: 1. Yao passes more when confronted with a double team or away from his comfort zone. Don't hold ball for 10 sec while Jazz set up their defense. Catch and shoot whenever he feels. 2. T-mac breaks up in 3rd Q, and Rox leads into 4th Q. 3. Bench makes some points and snyder plays more times. 4. More 3s. 5. Jazz's coach gets ejection at the end of game.
The superstars and the team are overdue for a monster game. If Tmac isn't doing his best Wade impersonation tonight then he deserves all the criticism coming his way.
I' am going to be really disappointed if we lose tonight. I had the Rockets winning this series in 6 games so they're going to have to win one of the road games in Utah and tonight will be the night. I wasn't so disappointed with game 3's loss as much as how the Rockets played. It was embarrassing to watch only four players score.
Exactly right DaDa- Van Gundy will have his team psyched and ready to battle. Us against the world!!! Win by 12 pts tonite!!!! go Rockets!!!!!
