Post-Game Analysis: Jazz 99, Rockets 86

yeah...artest with 11 reb and 7 ast...just needed to shoot less...wayyyy less...

and kL with the defense!!!

 

we lose and lot of tmac only fans happy

 

one game winning streak...as i hath predicted...

well get them next time, hope we arent going to get emotional in the locker room...the lakers in a bit....

 

The Tmac in that picture looked pretty dang healthy

 

Our bench got completely outplayed tonight. They are usually the spark plug that can give the starters a rest but still keep them in the game, but they were pretty much useless tonight.

 

ok guys, this most poor team even can not got any championship in 25 years! . one winning is ok, actually we do not send our 5 role player to that damn city. just put some scrub players to get some practice. rest our hard working guys.

 

I dont think so. If Rockets doesnt dare to face j*zz straightly, then they still have a long road from championship. I would rather choose j*zz as our first round rivals. Just fight like a man!!!!

 

Not too disappointed with this loss. The Jazz seemed to have reclaimed their homecourt invincibility in the past couple of months. If the other teams couldn't do it, I don't see how he could've.

Losing at HOME, however...

 

Clippers on Saturday.... at home... easy win

 

We played stupide and selfish. No team ball at all.

 

Terrible performance tonight but lets not all jump on the 'blame Artest' bandwagon.

He had a very poor game and jacked up several stupid shots but you can criticise almost every player tonight.

 

Scola can't defend anybody in the paint tonight.

 

Brooks was actually the bright spot out of those...no turnovers tonight.

 

if tmac is playing today, he'll just post up 4 for 20 with artest 2 for 16

 

They shot a shade under 35% for the game. No team can shoot that poorly and expect to defeat a playoff team on the road.

Still, I think the most disappointing aspect of the game was the bench play from the guards. The game really took a turn for the worse when Lowry & Wafer tried to go the length of the court and shoot layups in the third. Those instances would lead to an easy rebound for Utah, which in turn allowed them to play that quicker pace they tend to excel in.

Hopefully Houston can come back with a good effort this Friday versus the Clippers, and then prepare themselves for two big road games next week at Phoenix & LAL.

 

Quitter free too?

 

Shane Battier and Luis Scola was about our only bright spots for tonight.

Yao can't guard Boozer, but if he makes him pay on offense our chance to win is better but Yao struggled.

Ron struggled.

Von couldn't finish.

PG play well it wasn't good tonight.





We lost, oh well the team must move on and get better.

 

Are you sure?

 

I did miss the good t-mac at the end of that...

 

we'd honestly have a better time with portland, dallas, denver...hell almost anyone except the lakers than utah.
