    I don't know why, but I'm pretty confident.

    One more thing, Tracy attack them as much as you can the whole game. Stay agressive cause that opens up too many things. Again, shot over 40% cause 36% will not get it gone.

    Go ROCKETS

    well, it would be embarassing as hell to be swept, and simply put this is our best chance to win a game in the series.

    so lets get it done boys FFS.

    Utah gets complacent they already accomplished their goal.

    Rockets win easily 111 -92

    Keep the ball out of Bobby Jackson's hands! If the Rockets can successfully do that we'll win.

    That Jazz have a trivially simple strategy to win. Single cover TMac. If he goes off, he'll still be only shooting 35% so if he takes 30 shots, he'll only make 10 or 11 of them. Also, if he is fouled, he'll make less than 70% of his FTs. That's nothing to be scared about. The rest of the Rockets are nothing to be scared about either since they'll all be covered and they won't be able to get open looks. Hayes and Mutumbo don't scare anyone on offense. Scola is 50% from 2 feet away. Battier can't easily create. The guards are defensive liabilities and some of them are offensive liabilities too.

    If the jazz will come with the same determination to win this game like game 1, we cant stop them.

    We have no tools, our superstar is collapsing. We are going to lost every close game we gonna have.

    I predict a lost. Unless the jazz arent coming to win today :)

    we need landry, he's the key. With landry and scola doing the dirty work inside and Tmac passing abaility and PnR. we can beat the jazz!

    The game is damn on TNT, and we all know how much Barkley hates Rockets and loves Utah. I don't even wanna listen to his stupid comments cause sometimes it looks like he knows nothing about that game.

    We really need to win. It will be great to tied series at 1, take our confidence and shut down Charles' comments.

    Where is that team that won 22 in a row? Thats who we need now.

    A teams true heart comes out with backs against the wall, will our Rockets rise to the challenge or will they go through motions and let the Jazz get out of here with 2 wins?

    I say the Rockets will rise up and defeat the Jazz tonight. It will be a new series after tonight.

    That team had a healthy TMac and Landry; furthermore, Rafer sold his soul to have a good quarter season and now it is over.

    I'm sticking to my prediction that this will be a 7 game series, so in order for that to happen we definately need to win tonight. Come on Rockets!!!!! Come out early and send a message to these flopping Jassholes.

    I think losing game 1 is a good sign for us. Last two seasons, we won both game 1 but got carried away and lost the series.

    This time we have no pressue but to go out a win. I expect us to beat them by 20 pts!!!

    Landry is finally back and kicking jailazz butts.
