    It's the decisive moment of T-Mac's career.

    WINNER or LOSER? It's on you, T-Mac! :mad:

    keys to the game:

    1) Tmac needs to attack!! attack!! and ATTACK!!
    2) Bench needs to STEP UP!!!!
    3) Offensive Rebounds!!

    if the rox can accomplish these then they will surely win!

    I dont want to watch this game. It is just too cruel.

    Hopefully rockets will get everyone's heart pumping by winning a small margin 97-96

    The only way we'll win is for these things to happen:

    1) Yao to have less than 4 turnovers

    2) T-Mac to shoot over 43%

    3) Shane, Luther, and Rafer to hit their shots

    This is how i predict the game will go:

    Both teams will come out swinging. It'll be a close game with Utah leading by halftime.

    3rd quarter Utah goes on a run but Houston will strike back leaving a close game going to the 4th.

    4th quarter we start struggling and jazz run away with it and we lose.

    that's just the feeling im getting prove me wrong plz

    i am so nervous and afraid i am going to have a hard time watching please i wish for the rockets not to make it a close game, it will be easier for me to handle a blowout win or non-victory than it is a close game where we falter towards the end (see game 6) or a last second shot

    In addition to this defense will be key. We can't allow layups,dunks, and unchallenged shots. Even if the offense isn't working as long as the defense is tight we can still keep it close. Good defense can lead to a better offense.

    Yao didn't get the calls most of the times. He is THE most dominating center in the league now. Mark this!!!
    Who cares if you care for Yao or Tmac?
    BTW, Yao will dominate GSW centers in the WCSFs, at least they don't have a flopper like Okur.

    from one of the first team to have a 2:0 lead to the last team still looking for a 2nd round berth..... no matter if they win or lose I am disappointed with the way the game is played by the rockets in this series after game 2

    what are you talking about? both teams have nearly identical records and over 50 wins. best matchup in the first round and it's proven to be that way. it's pretty freaking obvious why this series is the only one that's gone seven.

    I agree with you. Rockets and Jazz had a great season, but Rockets and Jazz have different pluses. We are great, they're great so there is no suprise for me that we're going to Game 7. How we have to just win it!

    Y'all want to know why the Rox are going to win ... simple T-Mac!!! Yes, I know he hasn't won a playoff series and yada yada yada other stuff, but listen the last game 7 we played, we got slaughtered in Dallas by 40! If T-Mac and Yao cannot get their boys up for this one then, I don't know what it's going to take.

    Bottom line, T-Mac and Yao combine for 50+, the bench accidentally shows up and competes, we got off to hot start for once and we send the Jac-Azz home crying like the little crapperstinkos they are and this game will not even be close ...

    Get a double digit lead early and the crowd will elevate this team to the next round vs Golden State.

    It's time to show what you're made of boys! :D

    One command: Kill em!!!

    Rockets 116, Asses 76.

    How many times must it be said, "momentum game to game and series to series means NOTHING!"

    Bottom line, the Warriors match up VERY well with the Mavs. The Rockets have a sizeable advantage with Yao. Their backcourt is a killer! I think it will be a very good series. We were 2-2 in the regular season with them unlike DalASS who lost every game in the regular season.

    Rockets have to play better and they know it! Warriors will not be nearly as physical as the Jac-Azz have been.

    Bottom line: no excuse Rox, kick those Utassholes back to SLC with authority!!! :p
