It's great to get the leg up on the season series with the Jazz. We're 1-1 with Portland, and 1-0 with Utah. Every last tie break is going to help this team make the playoffs and who knows maybe even fight for home court (wearing my rocket rose colored glasses here). But this is a great win. This team looks damn good.
1. Nothing better than watching the faces of all the jazz players as the end approached. 2. No John Wall folks! 3. i said before the only way this team was going to survive is to not look for any 2 or 3 guys to mainly score, instead spread it around, let several guys end up in double figure, not only does it keep the defense guessing, but the more guys are involved significantly, the less an off day by someone will a affect the team..and everyone can stay within their abilities instead of trying too hard...
Amazing how calm this board has been the last couple of games with no YOF are TOF... Man it's been real nice....
awesome win! Deron Williams goes 6-20 .. who played D on him? looks like brooks and lowry got almost equal PT.
Wow. I am in shock. I can honestly say I did not think we would win this game, but to win it the way we did is just amazing and a testament to Adelman's genius.
Awesome win! Battier and Hayes were huge tonight. Ariza was playing too loose in the first half which is a bit of a concern, but kudos to everyone on the team. To paraphrase The Rock, know your role, shut your mouth, and play the game.. AB playing very sharp these first few games, and like I said after the previous game, as long as we have a PG dishing out assists (another 9 tonight) which we lacked with Rafer, this team will surprise many this season.. So what does the Chuckster have to say about this team's place in the West now?
The Rockets played terrific basketball. That's exactly the type of game this team is set up to play. Now it's time to see if they can handle the big boys on Wednesday
no Yao..No Mcgrady..No Artest..no superstar.....no problem! A bunch of role players playing hard as a team.... gotta love this ROckets team
