sure, the jazz maay start hitting their open shots once they get home. at the same time, the rockets can only shoot better than 4/24 from the 3pt line. so with both teams making more shots it should come down to who gets more stops. i'm still going to say we split the games in utah and close it out in 5.
Why do people come in here and post like WTF? Are you a Jazz Fan. The guy has a point. You guys are being way too optimistic, we shot less than 40% from the field and barely won both times. Stop acting like we are playing awesome.
Obviously Jazz can (most likely will) play better. But I want to reminder people one abnormaly of the Rockets -- two of their stars (TMac and Rafer) play better ON THE ROAD than at home. I am confident Rockets will not relax, game 3 will be another dog fight and Rockets will win it!
tell that to dallas and SA, some of you guys in here don't give props for anything. and if rox lost 1 of 2, people would be freaking out.
we played terrible on the offensive end and we still won, the Jazz aren't the only team that can make a few more baskets. So can we!
Dallas and SA mucked up. But they will recover and be fine. No one is going to knock those teams off in the first round. Denver and Golden State don't have a chance. Fact is, Utah may very well win the next two games and tie this puppy back up. People act like winning the first two at home means the series is over. Think going up 2-0 means a whole lot? Just rewind back two years ago.
Difference is, we played our best and barely got by with 2 wins. We could not improve a whole lot over our first 2 games. This time, we played really poorly and eeked by with 2 wins. We have a lot of room for improvement. Not to mention we were the inferior team in that series 2 years ago.
like i said....who said this was over? this is just beginning. the hardest thing to do in any sport is to win on the road in the playoffs
Don't you mean the Japanese or were you just trying to be funny? Because if you were trying to be funny...LOL! If not..LOL!
game 3 will be huge. IF we can manage a W, then the series is pretty much over. Now I dont feel very confident. Anything could happen
Thank god someone here have some memories... Are you people implying that playing not to our best is a good thing? Of course we have potential, it is just about showing up and play up to it. Who knows what kind of rockets we will see in Utah, no one guaranteed the outcome
