ClutchFans Game Thread: Jazz @ Rockets 4/23/2007 (Playoffs Round 1, Game 2)

WIN.

100:88

YAO&TMAC 96PTS

 

Both team player better this time. However Rox play much better in offense due to Tracy's resurge in offense since the 2nd half of game 1. with pressure on jazz, we win this one big 115:90 Rockets win!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I need this series to last as long as possible, so I'm hoping Jazz win this one.

 

It will be a blow out.

But i'm not able to watch this game because a stupid vacance in Italy.

 

yao dominates again, this time he shoots 50%. this time yao will smack deron on every pick and roll

tmac actually plays 2 halves this time.

our role players will make shots to negate utah's better play.

at the end of the day, we have tmac and they don't in the 4th. simple as that.

 

Go Rox!!! We can do this!

 

I hope we win! I'll be there at Game #2!!!!

Lets get Red N' Rowdy again like Saturday night Rocket fans!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Yao continues his 'You can't @#$%^&* stop me' play.

McGrady 'imposes his will'.

Together, the dynamic duo combines for 60 points.

Rafer Alston and Shane Battier become X-Factors in this game. They both bring in another 20 points to the table.

The Rockets beat the Jazz by 10 points.

 

You can watch this game on line if you have high speed internet access.

 

Key to Game 2
Keep our poise. The Jazz is gonna come back with more intensity and physical play. We've already seen their physical play from Game 1.

Our role players really need to step up, especially Battier and Luther.

We need to get our 3 pts going. Last game's 33.3% was not too bad, but a sub-par performance for us, considering how many open looks we got every game.

Most importantly, MAC and Yao need to show they are the superstars who can get their game to the next level.

 

Rockets
Both teams will come out strong! Tmac will be more focused through out the game and Yao will score in 30s and a double-double! our 3pts will pick up after gaining confidence from Game 1.

Utah
Boozer will need to pick up his game but he is no Tmac so it will not happen over night! William is playing great and doing what he's supposed to do. Harpring is the person we will need to watch out for! AK47 has lost it this season and countinues to play his dissappointing 06-07 game. Fisher played good in Game 1 so look for him to come out strong in Game 2. Jazz has no answer for Yao, in Game 1 they tried playing physical with Yao and that ended up with Yao going to line so if they keep doing that Yao will keep making FTs (he's no Shaq)

Rockets Win! 88-94

 

Game 2 will be the only "blow-out" of the series (105-79). Rockets other than TMAC and Yao will step up huge and shoot the lights out from 3 pt land. Look for big games by both Shane and Luther.

 

HOUSTON ROCKET FANSSSS GET ON YOUR FEEETT!

 

Rockets head to Utah up 2-0 after beating the Jazz 93-88 in game 2!!

 

Rockets win....
92 Rockets
87 Spazz

 

I don't see how T-mac isn't going to come out of the gates FLYING.
Yao will be solid as always. With our two superstars clicking, our role players will follow. I see a 102 - 88 win

 

Rockets win.

 

Key to win:

1. Tmac is hot.
2. Yao no foul trouble
3. Head, Rafer, Battier hit 3s.

then we will see vspan play over 8 mins in 4th q.

 

Rockets win again. T-Mac goes crazy and scores 50!!!

 

game 2 will be a blow out, McGrady and Yao will have monster games and the rockets win by 15
