ClutchFans Game Thread: Jazz @ Rockets 5/5/2007 (Playoffs Round 1, Game 7)

Give me a break. If you think T-Mac really has no idea or doesn't care about how important this game is you're nuts.

What do you want him to do? Stand on top of the podium and rip off his shirt? Pull the Rasheed Wallace "guarantee"? Tell Kirikilenko he wants to eat his children?

 

deep down T-Mac knows its a big game, Hes just tryin to deflect the pressure.. cause he hasnt had luck with game 7's

 

This has been discussed already.

You're just about.. ohhhhh only.. 24 hours late??

But yeah just so you know, TMAC didn't give up.. but it sounds like you did so you might as well stop posting here.

 

Nah, I'm going to the game. This is a secret jinx topic.

 

IBTL!!

 

McGrady was nervous - sweaty palms an all - driving to Game 1.

I would suggest he maybe should catch a cab or a limo to Game 7.

Could be scary otherwise.

cliche' I realise but the heart says YES - Head says NO

Heart: 93 - 88 (Mac 29, Yao 25,Battier 14)

Head: 95 - 86 (Mac 20, Yao 19)

everyone talks up this being all about McGrady, but lets not forget Battier's been previously perceived as a playoff bust aswell. He needs to make the outside shot like in Game 5 and play a great all around game for us to win.

 

I wish your throat becomes so coarse that you can talk after the game.

 

he just needs to say im not going to shoot any jumpers inless they just leave me wide open and tuck his head down.

 

This is it, this is the one chance that T-mac and the rockets have to prove they've got what it takes to win. I KNOW that the rockets will win tommorow. T-mac will score 40 and yao 25, with the res the team scoring 40. Either way the jazz choose, they will lose. GO ROCKETS

 

Behold the power that is these 11 words...

Dead Discussion, THEY WILL NOT WIN CUZ WE WILL NOT LOSE

Rockets by 22.

101-79

 

i dont wanna lose game 7 and then wonder WHAT IF??

WHAT IF? we got to play the wounded Warriors in the west semi's?

WHAT IF? we got past them and had a crack at the Spurs or Phoenix in the west finals?

I hate playing that game, but as much as you tell yourself that if if's and buts were candy and nuts we'd all have a merry christmas - your head still bounces around the possibilities, pretty much rihgt up until the start of next season...

 

We got a good chance, we got homecourt advantage

I just dont kno if I can watch this game its gonna be intense

we need these things to win
1. Tmac do his job by penetrating, attacking, and lookin for his teamates
2. We need to play rockets defense, we are not gonna win leavin ppl on the Jazz wide open for threes...they got great three point shooters, Derek Fisher, Mehmet Okur, Gordon Girikec, and Deron Williams
3. bench play
we need deke to come in block a few, and get rebounds
juwan and luther to chip in a few

if we do these things we are goin to the 2nd round of the playoffs

 

WHAT IF...the Rockets win?

Which they will. No stats, no point spreads to support me, just blind faith.

Uh...159-2, Rockets...because I like braking records in homerism and stupidity at the same time.

 

The last two team are still fighting for the second round! Go ROX~~

 

We will kill the Jazz come game 7. A real spanking for the Jazzholes.

 

FYI, ESPN's Bill Simmons and Greg Anthony predict the Jazz winning Game 7.

 

Rox:92
Jazz:84

 

a lot of our karma went into getting the warriors to win. dunno if we have any left for our own team.

 

if tmac loses this game, as much of a fan as i am of his, i don't think i can follow his career anymore. i know it's not all his fault (people say he has a better team this yr, but where are the damn role players??? i'm serious, are they locked in jail?), but i just don't like following a guy who keeps losing.

i don't even care for yao. i absolutely don't see any dominance from his game. he can really be slowed down if you just focus on him as a playoff series tends to do.

and if we do advance, i see yao playing 20 mins v. warriors at most b/c they seem to run EVEN MORE than the suns.

 

Comfortable Rox win. What time's the game tomorrow?
