ClutchFans Game Thread: Jazz @ Rockets 4/21/2008 (Playoffs Round 1, Game 2)

GET A FIGHT TO OKUR OR WILLIAMS NEXT GAME AND MAKE THEM INJURED!! IF YOU CANNOT WIN THE SERIES YOU HAVE TO DO SOMETHING ELSE!

 

First, the Jazz are a much better team, at every position in every way. They are more consistent, better shooters, better rebounders, better playmakers, better free throw shooters, just better. They are tougher more disciplined, more talented. Better teams usually win. Second, the Jazz are better. Les and Morey need to face one clear reality: It's about talent, stupid! The cheapskates conned us again. It's TIME for a new owner. And don't tell me Yao or Rafer would have been the difference, they weren't last year.

 

First thing's first... a despicable call by the ref on Scola. Just despicable.


Despite that, we played pretty well, but just showed how outmatched we are. T-mac had a wonderful game, but he's not superhuman... it's obvious he is getting extremely tired in that 4th quarter.

This series is over.

 

Our team is consistent of an (maybe) all-star, two rookies, a bunch of d-leaguers, a bunch of one dimensional players, and two injured starters.

Stop blaming Tmac. He did everything the board wanted him to do, penetrate, shoot the ball, pass the ball, and playing superb D. By the time 4th quarter rolled around, he couldn't carry the team anymore and didn't have it in his legs.

Even if you are a Tmac hater, you can't be this blind. 23-13-9-3-2.

Get off the guy's back.

 

oh and another thing...

**** KYLE KORVER...ONE HAND FLIP BULL**** ****KKKKKKKKK

 

Why? They just out-played us, simple as that. We have a "superstar" that disappeared in the fourth and a bunch of scrubs that can't dunk and don't know how to do lay up and make FTs.... What do u want from them?

 

Milsap is a lot better than Scola or Landry. This guy has the desire to rebound but also the physical tools like strength and athleticism. Millsap would start on this team and many other teams, just Boozer takes away his mins.

 

The jazz played really hard fouls and no lay up strategy in every poccession. We gained some FT, then missed them all.
No defensive answer for the jazz, FT and the ref's two critical calls in closing game. Damn it.

 

Landry has to play. All of those blown layups are dunks for Landry. Scola in addition to all the mistakes only had 5 rebounds in 44 minutes.

 

rockets are done, wat an embarrassing series, this ones going to the jazz in 4

 

We better grab the next one. Maybe Rafer'll play in Game 4 and come up big and we get two there. Maybe their whole team just went as cold as hell like the way we did in 05.
A little miracle would help..

 

If he was Kobe, he would probably throw Brooks under the bus for Artest ala Bynum for JKidd.

 

who is the coach of free throw? that is really hurt

 

tmac had to do what duncan does, plus what parker and ginobili do, u do know that right.

 

I agree with you for once. BJax was terrible in the fourth and he never put Brooks back in.

 

I swear to God if I see a TMAC needs to be traded thread, I'm going to yell out the most obscene things I've ever even thought of.

Blame injuries, blame FREEthrow shooting...

Not sure I would have taken out Brooks with how well the TEAM was flowing when he was in. No TO's tonight was a good sign.

We could have at least won 1 of these, but the fact that we are keeping up with this team with TWO OF OUR STARTERS OUT gives me faith. I cannot WAIT for the day Sloan retires. That will be a day of drunken celebration for me. I despise everything he stands for. And I PRAY he never catches glimpse of a championship ring. Very, VERY few guys in the league that I will say that about.

 

aiii.......

 

I don´t know what they can do worse, the game was clearly called different on both ends, and then that call at the end, the only way i can imagine they can make it worse for us is to score the ball in our hole.

 

Look at LB last year, single handedly beat Det, that's what we are looking for from T-mac..... 17M a year and that's all he can do?

 

Look,

I understand that the Rockets could have had the game if it weren't for other aspects of the game: free throws, making shots, rebounds, McGrady in the 4th, etc.

But DESPITE all those things, the Rockets were in the game at the end. The result of the game was will-imposed by the ref.

That flop was bullship.

How did they lose the game? A funking flop. The flop was just despereation. He freaking acted, wasn't touched. He even grabbed Scola's hand and over acted.

Yet that crap was called. The ref wasn't even watching. He just saw AK47 fly right by him, and HE BLOWS HIS WHISTLE?!

Give me a break. To all you who keep saying the Rockets are to blame, consider that the Rockets were in it at the end despite your reasons.

The ref made the worst call in the playoffs thus far. The ref won the game for the Jazz. POINT BLANK.
