    Long-time Rockets fans know that Utah's scorekeepers love to assist the Jazz in any unethical way possible. Remember not starting the game clock for 12 seconds while Stockton brought the ball up?

    Anyways, in game 3 I noticed the Jazz lost the ball out of bounds on their possession, and the shot clock should have been at 2 seconds. However, they reset the shot clock to 24, which should not have happened. Nobody noticed. They scored within 2 seconds anyways, so it didn't make a difference.

    But keep your eyes on that stuff, and if they get tricky we'll capture it on video an expose them.

    It's funny I kept thinking about that during the last game.

    I wouldn't be surprised at any of the tactics the Jazz use to gain an advantage.

    Just get the bench scoring and have the starters atleast score aswell and take Game 4 and finish it back at the Toyota Center.

    Speaking of the shot and game clock, did anyone else notice that NBAtv's clocks were 2 seconds slow the whole game?

    When playing the Jazz:

    1) Coaches, watch the clock.
    2) Players, watch your nutz.

    WOW!!somebody else is seeing what I see also....did anybody else notice when the jazz scored in the first half I think to end the quarter on like a fast break there should have been like 2 or 3 sec left, but the clock ran out before we could inbound the ball. It happened again doing the game, but I don't remember when and what play, but it was a different one form the thread starter. Somebody should review this game and watch carefully because I caught it twice and the thread starter caught it once...I don't think it would have mattered in game three, but that is still cheating.


    sohrab only reason i missed that play is because I went in the kitchen, so no telling how many times this happend in game 3.

    Screw the clock. I will be watching for the bench to show some pride and score some damn points tonight. They need to come through.
