OUT OF CONTROL!

5, 10, 15, times? I don't know, you tell me! Driving to the basket OUT OF CONTROL resulting in a missed shot and/or a turnover! Just about everyone on offense was guilty of doing it! These opportunities to score, slow things down, and keep Rocket momentum to a minimum cost us this ball game. That's my observation. Our defense was certainly good enough to win. But when you waste that many possessions on offense it's almost impossible to beat an elite team like the Rockets. Now, I may be off base here, but that's what I saw! What did you see?
 
Houston has a very good defensive team. Driving into the paint put a lot of pressure on the defense and it did work to a degree. If Donovan hadn't gotten injured, the Jazz may have had a chance to win. I'd have to look at the play DM got hurt, but didn't Harden foul him? He reached over his shoulder and their knees collided.

In any case, the Jazz played very well in spurts and should only get better next year, and probably will be contenders. The team that's going to be trouble next year is the Celtics.
 
Agreed. Last game we missed 23 shots in the PAINT. Tonight I dont know how many but there were far too many. And missed layups often turned into fastbreaks. That was a huge part of this series.

That game was 2 missed bunnies and CPEE3 not going nutty from downtown. Add in just 1 made 3 and Utah wins.

4 shots out of 164 decided the outcome in a tie and 5 a win.
 
It means that when the doctors were performing your frontal lobotomy Victor Frankenstein said "**** it, let's just saw his cranium open, remove the entire thing, and pack his cavity full of pigshit and see what happens. I call the first fist full."
This made me laugh ... Franklin, that was a good one.
 
One time, growing up, my red headed brother stuck a Cheeto so far up his nose that my mom eventually took him to the ER to get it removed. The point of me telling you this is... well, damn it, I forgot.
