    I wouldn't say I'm not confident. But it's definitely a trap game. The Rockets have been known to follow up a great win by screwing up a gimme immediately after.

    This is the type of game the Rockets tend to lose after coming off a big Win. I hope the trend does not continue and Rockets get this game in the W column.

    Why are some of you acting like this is a for sure win? What is all this talk about resting our starters?

    I guarantee you Howard, Parsons and Harden will be starting.

    Doesn't matter who we play if the starters are ready to go you play them this early in the season. At this stage every game is important. Doesnt matter who we are playing a win counts as a win and a loss is a loss.

    Poor Jazz. They have up next Rockets, Pacers, Trailblazers, Kings, Trailblazers. Wow, looks like you can go to Jazz home games for $5 now.

    Rockets 115, Jazz 90. D-Mo has a 10 pt 4th quarter.

    I think some of you haven't been watching Utah since Trey Burke returned from injury. Not saying they're a playoff team, but they are not the same Jazz we played the first time around either.

    The same Trey Burke shooting 36%? Beverley will give him fits all night long.

    Utah's front line of Favors and Kanter are the only thing that would worry me, and having Dwight minimizes that worry.

    Maybe. But the Rockets aren't the same team from the 3rd game of the season either. No more Twin Towers nonsense. T-Jones is contributing. And the bench is playing much better. I'd be very surprised if they spotted the Jazz another 19-point lead like last time.

    This will be another win without Jeremy.

    Does anyone know what is the status of both Chandler Parsons and James Harden? are they both probable for tonight's game? or maybe they will rest this one.

    Well we did BARELY ease by this team in our first matchup. Seems like we're always cursed one way or another when we play Utah. its been like that as long as i can remember.

    This would likely be a win without Dwight, Harden, Parsons and Jeremy.

    This is the worst team in the NBA we're facing, AND they're looking to tank for picks.

    Sure, they could surprise us... but by all rights this game should be a good old fashioned steam rolling.

    Comments from the j*zz fan site...


    Go Jazz! Hate the Rockets! Destroy those primadonas.

    Looking forward to the idiots at clutch fans crying over every call against them. Such trash.


    Send Howard to the line early and often to ice this one

    Honestly, beating them in 2007 was one of the sweetest things ever. I know every fan base says a certain other team's fans are the worst. But there is no doubt Rockets fans are the worst. Philly fans (for all sports) are close, but still not as big a collection of b****es as Rockets fans.

    Fans in Houston in generally. See Matt Schaub of the Texans. Cheering he got hurt. Disgusting.
