man they think pretty highly of their team. But then it seems like many of them don't think that much of yao: "I agree. Yao isn't horrible." Come on now yao is far from horrible. I do think okur will give us problems because it will force yao to guard perimeter.
Thanks man ... I needed a good laugh. The first couple of posts in that thread are laugh-out-loud funny. "If we play hack-a-shaq on Yao he'll crumble like an overbaked cookie."
"They're going to start Battier on Boozer?!? Bring it on. If they don't double down on him with Yao every time he gets the ball I'll bet Boozer goes for 40." apparently boozer is the next tim duncan/karl malone in utah
Jazz fans give us ZERO respect but I kinda like it. It'll wake them up to reality after this game. JAZZ HOLES
The dude who started the thread predicted that Sura and Bonzi will be in the rotation. So he clearly has no idea WTF he;s talking about. One guy four or five posts in did talk about how good our team should be this year, and that this game is not a "gimme", as the thread started idiot said it would be.
Wow. Just wow. There are a couple of guys there who showed some sanity, but the rest displayed their amazing ignorance. Do they just not follow preseason at all?

As long as he makes 85% of his free throws, he can crumble all he wants. Keep hacking. I figure Yao will be on Boozer whenever Boozer is on the court with Okur. Yao does fine on his man D as long as the guy doesn't make long jumpers consistently. So, between Okur and Boozer, I'd rather Yao take the guy who doesn't shoot the 3. Yao will probably take Jarron Collins whenever Collins plays since he's not much of an offensive threat. I think TMac will get stuck on AK and Snyder will take Hapring if these two are on the court together. The skinny AK would be an easier assignment for TMac than the more physical Harpring. I can see Chuck Hayes and Mutombo both getting signficant minutes tonight for extra rebounding.

Neither would Araujo be if he were that tall. In fact, he would be better because he wouldn't be a pansy. Yao sits in the locker room sniffing flowers while Araujo is lifting weights and throwing cute puppies against the wall. I'm just saying that Yao is and always will be overrated. He is like the Chris Paul of centers, except he has no talent to go along with the hype. I say Yao gets 18 and 10. Delusional post of the year......WTF is wrong with this guy? This guy makes some of our crazies look like Genius's
Idiots man, i read the first 2 or 3 and had to stop, and yea it makes me sick how much crap yao gets i hope he can shut all the critics up this year
Hey, I hope Boozer does get 40. Because if Boozer hits 40, that means he will have taken about 50 shots and the rest of the team will only score 20 combined. Prediction: Boozer will not have a good game tonight.
Wow, some of those guys are amazingly stupid. On the other hand, if they read our ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Jazz 11/1/2006 then they would probably say the same about us!
deron williams goes for 25 points and 15 assists? ah ahaahahahaaaaaaaa!!!!!! man jazz fans are delusional and obnoxious.
Well they're j*zz fans.. what do you expect them to say? Of course they're gonna say their team wins... althought some make it seem like as if their team is the Spurs playing against the Hawks. This poster made me laugh: "Well I say put Hoffa in to ruff it up with Yao. Maybe their both ejected and that way Araujo becomes the game MVP?" He was just joking around, but that sounds like something I would say had I been a Utah fan
