frickin ****. bunch of fricker fricks!


**** the Jazz! But I have to say I do really enjoy watching this Jazz team.


a must win tonight, gonna be chaos if we lose.


It would be nice for us to beat Utah tonight. Not because we need this win to prove anything, but because I really hate the Jazz. Go Rockets!


This Utah team won't make the playoffs, not this year..if we limit Donovan Mitchell from the paint.. an keep Joe ingles off the three that's a rap.


Jingles gonna rustle my jimmies. I can feel it.


MCW going to break out for 50.


Snyder has to be a tweaker


This team plays too much damn iso sometimes


Giving Gobert anything he wants


You can’t even look at mitchell or they will call a foul


Mitchell dominating


Ingles went around Hartenstein like his feet were nailed to the floor.


Crowders pony tail looks like a lobster tail


At least we shut down RUBIO.

NO MORE EASY LAYUP RUBIO- signed ALL Defense Westbrook MVP


Eric Gordon trying to break most missed 3s in a half record.


im tired of all these whistles, especially when they arent in the rockets favor


So we can't stop any team from scoring... And we can't score enough in comparison to put anyone away. Sigh.


was that defense we just saw! all 24 sec of it


Jazz 18 free throws Rockets 5. Seems legit.


If EG made a couple of his wide open 3's rockets would be up 1 million points. I did the math... it checks out.


Omg, you only watch one side of the ball. Do you know WHY Mitchell kept going at Melo, and almost never at Tucker, or Capella or even Harden. Its cause HE KNOWS its easy to score on Melo.


The team has no heart. They care nothing but money.



Now Crowder is draining 3s in Gordon’s face. And Capela needs to grow some balls and play some ball instead of worrying about his ugly hair


44pts at half seems elite no show


This team is not fun to watch this year. Last year they were so energetic and played with passion. This year it just seems like they feel idk entitled or something.


At this point, I wouldn’t mind trading Capela. Dude just seems so content now that he’s made his money.


Rockets look slow and tired.


This thread is like a modern-day Titanic.


Once I saw MCW go underneath a screen on Donovan I knew we were in for a long night. Hopefully we can bounce back. Plenty of time.


God damn Mitchell can finish


Donovan making the Rockets his bi***.


Can we trade Harden for Mitchell?


this team needs more cowbell


OL melo. youre bbq chicken on defense



Jazz reminding Rockets why Melo could not play against them in the playoffs last year. Just keep attacking him on defense. Sure basket every time.


Where is the help defense against Mitchell???? He's walking into the lane for easy layup everytime!!! Why aren't we guarding this guy especially with Rubio on the floor?????


I think the Rockets could still win this game if they weren't awful.


Joe ingles dying for a cig


Wow Rubio actually made a shot.


Man just give me another brawl please.


Watching Capela and EG battle for that board and then lose it to Rudy sums up the game


Great game from Melo and still can't score more than 90 points, even with 29 from Harden.



Yea, but Mitchell ALL NIGHT, was specifically targeting Melo, there is no way around that.



Everyone got killed by Mitchell.



so i've been workshopping some new material. i'm going to try it out here, you guys let me know what you think. **** THE JAZZ


Jazz are like season 9 of The Office. Sure they are a part of the NBA, but it would be better off without it. Joe Ingles is definitely Toby


This crowd is actually pathetic. Something needs to change. No ****ing corporate bro is pulling up to a Wednesday night regular season game so stop giving them so many seats


God ****ing dammit. The rebounding is atrocious


Just let Mitchell keep going by


If there's a hell, it definitely involves watching MCW shoot 3's repeatedly


lol joe ingles made melo look fast


Eric Gordon 3/18 from the field... Terrible


What the actual **** happened to our team


It's honestly impressive how literally everything is going wrong for us


Wow, we suck a fat d***


Holy ****, Melo almost set a pick.

I like Snyder, but you should be able to take advantage of their very aggressive defense.


This is making my eyes hurt.

The Jazz have so many offensive weapons. They are so lucky.


Someone knock Mitchell down. Make him shoot FTs.

It'd be good to get that 5th foul on Gobert.

Snyder nailing his TOs...


Mitchell is good.


Trapped inside this shell of terrible, the Houston Rockets are struggling to get out.


Can't shoot, can't rebound. They played pretty good defense, though. But not on Mitchell obviously. dats a bad, bad boy.


Oh, and after 18 minutes we get the fifth foul on Gobblert?




Donovan Mitchell with 38 points. Got rid of ariza, now we have no one to decently guard all star caliber players.


Without cp3 we are nothing , everything is bad now
No defense , no concentration .... , everything is absent
But i still believe we can do something this year , i hope we wake up


Yeah its pathetic 2 me that you get beat like that at home after losing 2 lac.... Wow we have a wack TEAM ... cant just point fingers at one or 2 players we just suck as a TEAM!!!!


Rockets don't have very good team chemistry this year...not a good start...looks like Ariza was more important than we thought.


I hate Melo he can't play D. So like when we're 1-10 to start the season we can then blame 82 year old Melo.


Utah jazz will rise this year because the team have got a good line up


They look absolutely horrible. Playing with no purpose and zero chemistry


Oh God, I don’t even know what to say


play some D please....it doesn't take talent....just effort....annoying


There's nothing that can fix this team. We consist of some halfway horrible players.


Choke as one


Should have traded for Butler when we had the chance.


It might be early in the season but this years Rockets have some bad issues that can lead to season long issues. Terrible help defense, lack of rebounding and no consistency on offense.


My Depression is back :(


We once scored 90 in a half and today can’t even score 90 in game


Someone tell me it's not time to start panicking!


The sole bright side i saw after this game was....nothing. its ****ing bleak atm.


Props to Utah:
-Donovan Mitchell is a straight up beast. Hindsight is 20/20 but how Lonzo Ball was taken 2nd overall and this kid fell as deep as he did baffles me. He can do it all. His penetration might even be better than Lillard. And he makes timely 3’s. He’s a stud and a future MVP of this league. It’s awesome seeing him continue to develop.
-Gobert was a presence down low and led to the Rockets getting jumpy in the paint.
-they played their usual good defense and got the W. They were the better team tonight. They won the 2nd quarter and never let the Rockets get within 4 after that. They did what they needed to do.
-Quinn Snyder (Snider?) coached a hell of a game. His timeouts were timely and he called great plays out of them. He will probably get this team to a top 4 seed this season….yes, better than the Lakers.

That was a fun read right there. I'm so glad we won last night. Overall, this comment stuck with me because of the outright hypocrisy of the post:

You can’t even look at mitchell or they will call a foul

Harden played 7 minutes less than Mitchell yet shot more FT. Also, Mitchell shot 2 free throws in cleanup time at the very end. Some NBA fans are just the worst.

Ummm, what? This makes no sense, imbread idiots

MCW going to break out for 50.
Ah, the ramblings of idiots.
You can’t even look at mitchell or they will call a foul
If you were any other team, I might have simpathy for you.

im tired of all these whistles, especially when they arent in the rockets favor
Now you know how the rest of the league feels when they play against the rickets (red, I spelled that correctly)
If EG made a couple of his wide open 3's rockets would be up 1 million points. I did the math... it checks out.
And I thought my math was bad. I’m a ROCKET SCIENTIST compared to these idiots.

Rockets don't have very good team chemistry this year...not a good start...looks like Ariza was more important than we thought.

Funny how the Rickets fans were the last to realize this.

Oh God, I don’t even know what to say

If only the rest of you imbreads from clutchfans would follow your example, would raise the country’s IQ by a million

If this post is any indication, then I’m surprised how insightless they were. Everybody saw this, except their FO, apparently. Trading Trevor and Luc for Melo, with losing their defensive coach as the cherry on top? CP3 aging not unreasonable that he could go down with injury. Melo sucking and blaming MDA for not starting? These FO moves could get D’Antoni fired.

CP3 got suspended, not injured.

We got a lot of fouls in the first half but they were legit... if PJ Tucker were to play as physical with Harden as he did against our guys he’d foul out in 5 minutes.

They also have to realize we back off and play with our hands in our pocket against Harden to avoid fouling... guys look like the police came out and said “put yo hands where I can see em”.

Rockets and they fans are the worst. Harden was bitching so much... EG too... on calls that were obvious. Maybe the refs have had enough.

So it isn’t the FO though... it’s the ownership... I called this last year. I said their owner may not be willing to pay the giant tax to keep this all together. I honestly thought Capela would get close to the max and CP would get full 5 year max... neither happened and they still couldn’t cut the check for Ariza. Even the Anderson deal was clearly about money.

I think Morey has been neutered with an owner unwilling to spend what it would take to compete with GSW. He sunk most of his wealth into the franchise... he may now be mega rich on paper but not have a cash flow that can justify a 50M tax. My wife’s father is a real estate developer so I understand the struggles of the asset rich cash poor position... it lends itself to making some bad decisions.
 
Like how much of a discount would Ariza have given them... would he take 12M... 2/20-21... 1 year and 15M to Phoenix was weird.

I think the bad game 7 clouded their minds to what he did. It sucks to defend your *** off every night and stand in the corner and watch James and CP dribble.
