    Utah only bothered trying for about the first 10mins in game 5.

    they have been toying with us.

    lulled us fans, aswell as the team, into the false sense that our guys have any chance in this series.

    i dont blame Mac at all, we need an owner whose willing to pay some luxury tax!!

    only then will we get close to the elite.

    So true. Utah was totally sleepwalking through game 5. They didn't even execute the Deron and Boozer PnR.

    That's what it seems like. It 's like they don't even bother on the Road, but when they come to Utah they get easy layups.

    Damn our own fans are taking away what the Rockets took. The Rockets beat the Jazz an won game 5.

    STFU if you think they didn't try. No one cares.

    I don't buy that...the Jazz aren't doing anything different than they've done all series. Sure they came out tight in game 5, and that clearly isn't the case tonight. But the Rockets (sans Tmac) are just shooting themselves in the foot.

    Well, you aren't wrong. Utah really didn't try in game 5 save the first 10 minutes. Tonight their early intensity put us in a huge hole but now that we've adjusted to it and matched their intensity, we're totally outplaying them. (well more like TMAC is outplaying them)
