    signed. Trading both for 1 average player who plays both offense and defense would be a huge upgrade.

    What's sad is the Rockets are actually outshooting the Jazz right now yet still trail by 6. This doesn't bode well for the 2nd half.


    The Rockets are hustling out there, but you have to finish. How many point blank layups are these guys gonna blow?! For chrissakes, if you're anticipating the shotblocker, then pumpfake the b*stard in the air and get to the foul line! Or go strong to the hoop and force them to foul you. But quit bailing the Jazz defenders out with this p-ssy stuff!

    The Rockets actually outplayed the Jazz in the 1st half. If our guys keep playing like this, the score will eventually reflect it and we will have a chance in this series.

    What's worse we played really solid defense. THey even lost themselves and suddenly one 3s (guarded) and 2nd wide open. This team just has to do that..

    They're getting hammered by all the bricks they toss up.

    Pathetic.

    too many easy shots missed, we need more effort from the other guys not just tmac..
    tmac playing his heart out this game, he really is trying to get past the first round....

    i will bet my arm that the haters will jump at him again if we lose this one
    "tmac is a choker", "he's not taking this game seriously" etc..

    JAZZ ARE THE BETTER TEAM...PERIOD

    IT AIN'T ABOUT HUSTLE AND ENERGY WHEN YOUR TEAM PALES IN COMPARISON.

    They have more talent, more depth, more athleticism, better system, EVERYTHING.

    Let's all pray for the Jazz to suck it up second half. Cuz, we know the Rocket's will play the way they play. Is it too much for the other guys to start playing like the 22 game win streak????

    That's only part of the story. How about missed lay-up after missed lay-up. Pathetic. How can people wonder how TMAC has never been out of the 1st round??? This is a prime example of why.

    Houston has too few weapons; Tmac, battier and a bunch of rookies and scrubs.

    And what piss me off even more than Scola, is the fact that people who are just watchin' ABC or Lakers or Boston's game will just say '' McGrady's a chocker '' '' can't pass the 1st round '' when they aren't even watchin the serie.

    The first 3 okur hit scola was slow and lazy to get out on that three to challenge,All okur does is shoot three's and scola just watched him wind up the shot,aim and fire before he got there to challenge.

    Rockets are history making team:

    22 winning streak this season.
    0 points from bench during playoff last season
    below 60% on FT lines
    missing 20+ tips

    I feel for TMac

    He is surrounded by role players out of sync.
