Here's a little throwback moment when I brought the Jazz some of my luck at Game 7 in 2007.

Keys to the game:
Battle of the bigs. Apart from Jefferson, Sap and Asik the rest are relatively n00bs. Favors, Kanter, Robinson, Motiejunas, Smith etc.
How do we contain Harden? Or the perimeter in general? Harden, Lin, Delfino, Parsons all have the range in their arsenal. Have to defend the perimeter.

Last game:
Rockets got blown out on Sunday at home versus the Warriors. Were down big, cut it to single digits, but the game got away from them in the fourth and they lost by nearly 30.
The Jazz lost to a depleted Knicks squad at home. Both teams have at least one days rest, so I expect them both to come out with some fire. Jazz know they have to win 1 of 3 on this Texas triangle, if not 2 to stay in contention, this being the biggest of the three. Jazz also got blown out at home last time they played Houston in one of their biggest home losses of the season. We must avenge that loss!

Last, any signage ideas?

There comes a Time when a team must reach deep down and find its inner being and release all the powers of the universe, in order to fullfil their destiny and rise from the ashes of the bridges that have been burned from past transgression!

Utah Jazz It is time!!!!!

Kanter you Evans do me a Favors and play G-time, for Burks sake? Or something like that, just not mo G-time, Corbin would get confused and read only up through the "mo" and overplay the lousy chucker.

I have given up on this season and dont really mind missing playoffs and getting ever so slightly better pick.

With that said I want us to win this game so bad.
