Game freakin 7.... honestly, i hadn't really stressed it all that much up until about 30 seconds ago. now my heart is racing and i'm getting the tingly feeling and those ever present butterflies in my stomach.... i'm gonna go pour a drink. Go Rockets!
I used to stress out about these things but I guess I'm older and wiser so it really doesn't get to me as much as it used to. I used to be a mental mess. Truthfully though, I have been unbelievably disappointed in this team's overall execution this series. Even though they lost in 7 games to Dallas 2 years ago that team seemed to be more explosive offensively, tougher, and seemed to play with more of a sense of urgency. This team just doesn't seem to be nearly aggressive enough.
i'll definitely agree with you there.... i think we're more than good enough to beat this damn jazz team, but they just get into our heads. and that mainly goes back to this rockets team not being as mentally strong as those in the past.
for the rest of the game we just need to use yao like a role player...no more dumping it in to him inless we get its off someone slashing to the basket.
The Jazz aren't in the Rockets' heads. Where do you get that from? We've won every home game so far and in game 6 we played our best road game. In the first half, the Rockets (as a team) are choking and the Jazz are efficient and cool. Simple as that.
