ClutchFans Game Thread: Jazz @ Rockets 4/15/2015

i dont see how the rockets lose this game at Home- theres no way..
I hope the crowd shows up for the most important game of the season

 

You will see that they won't rest their guys against us, just to make a statement. Even still, we should not lose, already have lost too many winnable games because we didn't have the sense of urgency and killer mentality!

 

Don't take this damn team lightly. They killed us on the boards in our last game. However, with Dwight back should help greatly on the bounds.

We will win guys. relax. Dwight is playing. But how long?

 

He played 27-28 minutes against the Pelicans. I don't see why he can't go at least that long against the Jazz. Especially with the team not playing again til Saturday or Sunday.

 

All year long I have needed a reason to hate the Jazz again and now hands down the 2nd most important game of the year comes down to against the Jazz. Smh I asked for this though... -_-

It looks like Hayward will not play. I'm more worried about favors though.

I bet they hold Favors out, unless they just reeeeeeeeeeally want to screw us.

 

I signed the "Send Joey Dorsey to Slovenia" petition instead.

 

They rested Hayward, Favors, and Burke the last 2 games. It would be odd to run them all out there in the season finale with nothing on the line.

And losing might move them up a spot or two in the lottery. The Jazz currently have 38 wins. The Suns have 39 and have to play the Clippers tonight. And the Nets and Pacers each have 37 and are trying to lock down the 8th seed. Better to stay at 38 if you're Utah.

 

Lol. Well played.

 

context?

 

That's 2013 old.

2013?

 

Must win game!!! Hopefully Hayward and Favors don't play.. Also, I think Jazz can possibly move up a few spots in the draft by losing this game, so they have some incentive to lose... I guess.

But all things aside, I think even if Utah tries to screw us over, with Dwight playing ~28 minutes and playing on our home court, we should be able to win. Go Rockets!!!

 

Isn't Gobert the longest player there ever was? His Wing Span was re-measured @ like 8' 3/4 " recently....

 

Would really like to see a preview of how they'll play in the playoffs.

Ya know...actually curb stomp a team like GSW did last night.
