What's new

Jazz @ Houston Rockettes (6pm MT Time)

Gobert is so awesome
 
what an awesome team effort, everyone contributed.


Such a shame Hayward is so so so bad in the clutch and disappears in the 4th quarter every game ....
 
I don't hate James Harden the person, but I definitely hate James Harden the basketball player. Dude is such a little bitch.
 
What a great win! I gave them a 20% chance.
Fantastic
 
They do call it for everyone. Not everyone is quick enough to react to reaches like Harden can. It's still utter bs though and something they need to look at before it becomes something everyone becomes good at.
The ones I have a problem with are when a guy shoots is, no foul is called, then the shot misses and then a foul is called.
 
Spoiler: we won
I avoided this post (and all posts) when I started the game back up.

Not that I mind spoilers but I wasn't gonna seek em out
 
Yeah and our weakness is not having a PG who can put pressure on a defense (when Hill is out). How easy would this game be with Hill?
I have noticed the ball moving more when he hasn't played these recent games though.

I agree... I love what Hill has done for us this season, but I think we can survive him leaving.

Also, I thought we were 4 back if we won tonight.. we're only 3 games behind the Rockets. We can catch them.
 
Dammit, I keep forgetting to try that. Ever since you posted the pic of it I've been wanting to try it.
If I'm being honest it wasn't as good the second time. Still good, but not epic.
Of course the KFC was busier than I have ever seen inside and drive through, they ran out of chicken ffs, I had to wait for about 45 minutes with a tired, hungry, fussy 9 month old and my wife and mother in law. So that might have had an affect.
I did fill up my water cup with root beer at least. That'll show em!
 
Watching quin in post game he had some real nice things to say about Burks game tonight.

pretty unlikely they've got an easier run to the playoffs by a fair margin
 
Rockets are flashy, but they're gonna be NOTHING in the playoffs when the game slow down.



We got this.

They're a typical D'Antoni team, all about offence and no defence. It's rare that they win if they score under 120 points. And any time they score under 110, it's almost always a loss.

Their roster is poorly constructed. Harden, Gordon and Williams are all high-usage players who can't share the court, and can't defend worth a damn. Anderson is a 3-and-no-D stretch 4 who can't rebound. Ariza and Beverley are 3-and-D players but are afterthoughts on offence. Capela is their only two-way player and best rebounder, but they play him less than half the game.

They rely heavily on three-point shooting for offence. They have five players who average 7 three-point attempts per game or more, and average more than 40 attempts as a team. By comparison, Hood, Hayward and Hill are all around 5 threes per game and we average 26 as a team. Tonight we held Harden to 0-8 from deep (although he did get points off "shooting fouls"), the team to only 32 three-point attempts, and their score under 110 and we won. Of course Harden won't always shoot like that but anytime any of their shooters goes cold they'll be vulnerable.
