I like the Rockets in 5, I don't think they will be able to handle tmac at all, esp. PLAYOFF tmac, and Yao, along with Battier and Luther and poss.Rafer hitting 3s. And you know our defense will be there, and you how BADLY tmac wants to win. Utah lacks a legit go to guy and is young and inexperienced. Plus they are from frickin Utah. Rockets Rockets Jazz Rockets Rockets
I originally thought 6. After getting home court and seeing how they played against New Orleans and then Phoenix, I'm going with 5. They are really playing well right now. The Miami game where D-Wade got hurt and Monday's game against Phoenix were probably their best games of the year. Tracy has got it rolling right now; I can't see the Jazz stopping him.
Interesting, I saw a similar poll on Jazz forum. You know what, half of them vote for Rockets, poor Jazz. Now I worry about how much influence gambling industry had on NBA, too hot is not a good sign on gambling, and Chinese like gambling way too much. This is why I always expect England soccer team to lose at some point.
voted for five games. don't understand why so many vote on six games. the sixth game will be @Utah, so I say , Houston win in either 5 games or 7 games.
I wish if the Rox can win all the games at home, and don't give the Jazz a sparkle of hope to think about winning.
DaDakota. EDC. ROckets03. Luffy1. Lets go. Still got some tape left! By the way, DD...no ROCKETS WIN in FIVE OR SIX....BUT!
We will win the series, but this won't be a cake walk. To me, it all centers on cutting off the penetration of Deron and holding our own on the offensive and defensive boards. If we do those things, the rest bwill fall into place. I also like the fact that the Jazz really don't a true superstar to turn to when things get tight to make a big shot. They have some very good players, but no great players that can elevate their game and put the team on their shoulders. We have 2.
I took Rockets in 7.....and as I said.....Home Court means a TON in the playoffs. Since the Rockets have it, I think they will win in a series of two evenly matched teams. DD
Who are these 14 people who voted for the Spazz? It's mind bottling. Anyways, I'm hoping for a 6 game for our boys, with Tmac going for 21 points in 30 seconds rallying the Rox from a 20 point deficit to a win late in game 6.
