ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Jazz 5/2/2008 (Playoffs Round 1, Game 6)

This is gona be a tough one! Don't want to keep my hopes up! Expect the worst and hope for the best!

 

Key game

 

Honestly man. Before the series even started you said we'll be sweeped. Then you said we are lucky to even win 1 game. Well we got 2 games, and now you're saying we won't win three games.

You're hopeless man, you're really hopeless. I don't know whether you're a rocket fan or a jazz fan. Don't know why you want us to lose so much

 

I'll take this as a reversal jinx...

 

tmac scores 50 and rockets win by 20

 

We need another miracle ... but I hope to see Rockets play another game at home this season ..

 

Let's do it Rockets !

So pumped already, can't wait !

 

I see us winning this one by 6 pts.

Jazz is going to come out and play hard fouls, I see Boozer foul out in 3rd quarter. we need warriors and not players in this game.

lets go out there with awords and axes!!!

 

I think we can pull this one out! Just need our role players to step up again! Hey they did it 22 games in a row, why can't they do it for 3??? Clutch City ALL THE WAY.

If we do lose the game tomorrow (which won't happen), then this bunch of guys still deserves all the credit... look at teams like the Suns, Mavs, Nuggets who all folded. We are the only one's still standing and no one gave us a chance. So if that's not worth any praise, then I don't know what it is. The Rockets are putting up a fight and that's respectable in every way!

Go ROCKETS!

 

yeah, but I am so glad dallas loss..and we are they are the only game not finished...I love it....I really hope the rockets win..

 

tmac is practising left-hand shooting for the left knee is getting worse......
our guys have done whatever they can. i just hope this first round won't be used to attack tmac's "heart" in the future. he is walking with more difficulty than yao now.

 

Please. Dear God. Win.

 

I'm really ready for this game...Rox continue their ways...

Rockets: 86

Jazz: 80

 

Let's go Rockets!! We know we can win this game.

Did anyone see the Post Game press conference and T-Mac hobbling off the stage? Say what you want about him, but I think he's showing a lot of heart in this series.

The keys
- stop Deron's penetration
- keep forcing Boozer to shoot jump shots
- continue the strong bench play
- we need Scola to get some early offense and keep Boozer busy on the defensive end
- most importantly, I think Rafer needs to have a big game again because when he plays well, we are really hard to beat and the whole team seems to play better

No one gave us a chance when Yao went down.. No one gave us a chance when we were down 2-0 in this series.. If we don't win, let's go down swinging and leave it all out there tomorrow night! Go Rox!!!

 

We'll win this one. 101-92

Im just so concerned about the officiating.

 

I worry about that too but if the Rockets can maintain a decent lead in the 4th quarter and make their free throws (I think these go hand in hand), hopefully it won't be in a position for the Refs and professional floppers to decide.

 

Let's go Rockets! Hopefully they'll tie it up and send it back to Houston.

 

hopefully we can force a Game 7 no matter how painful that can be. Please take this one in Utah.

 

When we were hoping to even the series to 1-1, we failed..

When we were hoping to even the series to 2-2, we failed..


I really hope this is the 3 time lucky and even the series to 3-3!! Cmon Guys!


BELIEVE

 

This is going to be a ridiculously tough one, but if we win, I don't see any way the Jazz can have the composure to come into Houston and beat us in game 7 like they did last season.

That said, if it ends here, I will not be angry and I will still be proud. Taking the j*zz to six games without Yao and without Rafer for the first two, with our 3 best players currently *possibly* needing surgery and still playing. We are giving those Jazzholes all they can handle while heavily relying on 3 rookies and a 41 year old center.

This is the season of the 22 game win streak. This is the season we were on top of the Western conference so late into the season after so many years...No matter how it ends, be proud of this team.

As always, go Rockets!
