    It's in Utah, we r 2-0 but we need to get this one down in order to secure our position as well as kill the jazz mentally. But as we saw, the Rox r having pretty close games against the utah, so the fans r going to make some problem for the Rox especially late in the game. I hope the Rox can play well, and shoot better, once we get this game down, we'll probably be in the second round for sure. But this is the first home game for the Jazz, they r not gonna make it easy for us, Good Luck Rox, Ima pray for u guys.

    What do u say?

    I expect Tmac to get it going from TIPOFF. I want Yao to bully those double teams like they're 11 year old school girls from the playground.

    And of course, keep up the good work AK47. Living up to the name.

    The Rockets are not a bad road team, and they do have a knack for shutting the home team up when they play on the road by hitting big shots.

    The Jazz themselves have never come back from a 0-2 deficit to win a playoff series, please let this not be their time to change that.

    Utah will come out HARD. it will be very tough to take game 3. I think game 4 is ours.

    Game 1 was tough, game 2 was tough, and game 3 will only get tougher. Let's all pray for the Rockets. But if we can stay healthy, i think there isn't much problem that we can make jazz go home. Although 2-0 doesn't say anything but at least we r ahead of them.

    To take less 3 pointers and hit them often, this is gonna be the most important game. If we win this, sweep is ours.

    I expect Utah to start doubling Yao possibly, on the dribble on the catch on the throw, something to slow him down. When that happens I think the 3 pointers will start to rain in Utah and our barrage will blot out the sun, or at least the lighs in whatever their arena is called, and the Rockets will win game 3 in he shade.

    tipically i think teams that play on the road are more focused than they are at home due to lesser distractions. however, this is playoffs and utah are now down 2 so there could be lesser distraction for them now that just win. But i still think game 3 will be a grind it out game and whoever has more passion in the last 2 quarters will win. But its not also a 2 quarters game.

    They are not the Marvericks and we wont make the same mistake this time, since we already have had a 2-0, why not make it 4-0?

    It would be fun to end the series in Utah too, and tell boozer he can now rest his ass at home and no need to travel a long way and waste his time and energy for nothing in houston again :D Good news to boozer too!

    This is what I think is gonna happen in Utah:

    Scenario 1:
    Game 3 - Rockets are too complacent, Utah takes the game
    Game 4 - Rockets got the wakeup call from game 3...dominates this game

    Scenario 2:
    Game 3 - Rockets know all about not getting too complacent and dominate this game
    Game 4 - Rockets are complacent because they are up 3 - 0, Utah takes the game


    :D either way, 3 - 1 once we are back in Houston for game 5.

    Yeah, I am hoping we win game 3 as well.. what a way it would be for T-mac to break out of his so called 'playoffs curse' with a 4-0 sweep of the j*zz?
