Utah play really well. I’m astonished at our inability to anticipate the opponent’s adjustments. We got destroyed most of this game at big man switches. How can we not being able to anticipate the other team figuring out our switches and reserve a few counter punches?!
They are open EVERYWHERE.
We just let them shoot 4 consecutive wide open 3s and the made all of them
Exactly. Mitchell has played well but he’s not exactly dominating this game. Uncontested made 3’s is the difference.
Jazz are dominant at home..Friday night is going to be tough as nails.
A rookie with a bunch of journeymen are beating the rockets.
So mannyyyy missed 3's my godness.... on top of that the refs sucking Utahs d*** all game, and thats the game smh
mitchell just wants it more than the rockets.
Welcome to hell...
New career high for the science teacher, that's game.
The TEAM that is RUNNING the ball up the court is kicking the SLOW team's ***.....for the record that is us.
We need to PUSH PUSH PUSH the ball....
Man....it is on the COACH to settle this **** down and handout mug shots of Ingles so the team knows WHO T F the guard. Everyone deserves their *** chewed next film breakdown.
Losing to some no offense scrubs
Damn we need to find a way to trade for Ingles
Cut up by Joe mother****ing Ingles. Goddamnit
Very worried about @ Utah
We deserve to lose. We refuse to guard Ingles. Absolutely pathetic defense tonight. Rubio not even out there. Simply crap.
Ingles is dying for a cigarette
How has ingles been so open all game? Doesn’t make sense
Joe Ingles is really going to beat a 65 win team on the road.
Paul having one of those games that's fueling his playoff chocking narrative.
Exum frustrating Harden entire game
Mitchell has an incredible outlier with 10 assists, the highest +/- in the game and is about to win and in your world a good job has been done, and I AM "not that smart" .
I would laugh but it wouldn't even deserve that much.
Dante Exum is also a +13, theyre shooting 50% from 3 and the pick and roll has worked for them no matter whos handling the ball. So whats your point? A lot of his assists were on fast breaks but keep blaming Ariza.
That layup by Mitchell sums up the night. Weak defense the majority of the night.
Ah yes, the leave Joe Ingles wide open play, my favorite.
Ingles and Crowder just do not miss wtf!!!!
After he picked up his fourth foul, Mitchell committed 2 more that weren't called... yet the refs had no issues about calling us for 3 equally egregious fouls within 20 seconds....
how is exum hitting ****ing 3s ffs
How blatant does a travel have to be before they will call it on Mitchell? He gets 16 steps
Once again the refs are showing that Rockets are the most screwed team by the refs in playoff history
Exum with the capper.
Harden, Paul, Exum, Mitchell all at five fouls. What a debacle of a ref job.
The rockets got the harder opponent by far. I can't believe how lucky the warriors are. They get a Spurs team without kawhi, the rockets get an up and coming twolves team. Now they get the jazz and the warriors get a boogie cousin-less pelicans team.
I can't understand the warriors luck. I just can't.
Tucker taking and missing all the crucial shots down the stretch
So far, this looks a LOT like how Utah beat OKC in the first round.
116 points given up to this mediocre *** team
HOLY ****!!! Choking at its finest WOW
Cowardly defense late - layup after dunk after layup - the Jazz earned this game, our guys need to WAKE THE **** UP, regular season records mean **** ALL.
That’s a really bad loss. Gave up home court advantage to a team with a great home court.
Must be nice to have role players who step up. We wouldn't know anything about that.
If we lose to the Jazz, I don't see Lebron coming. And if Lebron ain't coming, then what's the point of keeping CP3? Dude's 33 and getting worse by the day. And if we don't keep CP3 and we don't get Lebron, then wtf are we really doing?
I have a new favorite hated player: Dante Exum.
Did we really just let Utah trash steal one at home??
Honestly, I loved that Kobe Bryant episode, and I know that it's not anything new, Quinn Snyder probably would have told him the same ****....but idk, you listen more when one of the greatest is saying that ****. And honestly, Mitchell has made those adjustments so far.
He shoulda waited till after the series to put it out. Seems a little strange that we had one of the greatest telling Donovan what to do next game to beat us.
also, I know this is an overreaction
Had Jae Crowder been good since being traded to the Jazz. I mean I doubt he was this good, but better than the train wreck he looked like in Cleveland?
Time to turn off the Jazz and make them sing the Blues
Atrocious defense thus far. What the hell are they doing? Credit the Jazz for hitting their shots and finding the open looks.
Ingles is letting us have it
Eh, that was Crowder making a dumb three.
I couldn’t believe it went in. Some of the Jazz shooters’ motions are so ugly, but it goes it.
Jazz fans should be stoked
The refs are letting their players do whatever they please to harden with 0 consequences
Might even play better away from our ****** depressing home crowds.
Okay. So the Jazz played their best quarter of the season and we’re down 8. Whatever. Props to them.
Weird idea but:
Please stop fouling people at the three point line
HOW MANY DUNKS WILL GOBERT GET
on those damn pnrs…. seriously. much rather leave the outside shooters wide open than give him the wide open dunks comeon
You know it's bad when Rockets fans are celebrating
only being outscored by Utah by 1 in a quarter.
Joe Ingles
is hitting some tough shots
Joe Ingles is ridiculous!!!! but we gonna win
I knew Ingles was gonna be the Jazz player I hated this most this series.
Ingles shoots 44% from 3 this year and last
and nobody ever talks about him. I’ve always kept my eye on him, but this has to be the first time he’s shot well against us in his career.
Lmao Alec Burks 17 points on 7/11 shooting
How is that even possible
Doesn't want to go at Gobert maybe?
Why the **** is Dante Exum hitting 3s? Better yet, why the **** is Dante Exum actually getting minutes in a playoff game and not looking terrible?
Are we playing the Utah Jazz or
The Navy Seal snipers??
Literally all you have to do is stick on Ingles.. stop giving him 4 feet of floor space
The Rockets don't deserve to win this when they leave Joe Ingles wide open this often.
Dante Exum is a scrub
Him having this kind of impact in this game is beyond annoying
Losing to the Rubio-less Jazz at home when at full strength. Unfortunate. They hit shots, we didn’t. Gotta regroup and take one (at least) in Utah. Our crowd has been disappointing, imo.
I don’t know that we see Joe Ingles turn into Hot Klay Thompson too many more times. I know he’s a good shooter, but probably not a 78% shooter from three on volume.
There goes Harden going back to the...."drive to the rack and snap the head back and hope for the foul" thing again.....lmao
All u people just shut up rockets didn't even bother to play hard this game they played no defense everyone knows when we play defense jazz can't beat us just look at game 1
The Rockets let Ingles hit too many 3 pointers in Game 2. He isn't a very fast or quick player either. Hopefully, next game the Rockets will guard him tighter.
I'm tripping because we're clearly not playing like the team that took the 1st seed in the West it's annoying watching this team play at a d league level when they are capable of obliterating the jazz if they felt like it
We will still win however when our threes are not falling we gotta get to the paint and make them guard ot foul. They had 3 starters in foul trouble. We were switching on the pick n roll and Capela kept getting stuck on a guard. We gotta make adjustments to that.
We need bench scoring plain and simple
Pure pathetic performance by Jazz and refs to allow some cheap shots. I’m not worried. Just pissed and I hope our team enters the locker room and come together
F the Jazz
Im down with my team but come on you got to be a little concern , they came out with adjustments and they're bench play great . They are shooting well with like 50%+ from field and 40% from 3 thats high getting easy baskets . This is we're MD needs to show if he has what it takes and make adjustments cause Utah ain't gonna back down for nothing and with does fans behind them cheering like no other is going to be tough but i believe in my team Lets go Rockets
Don’t underestimate them. They are a legit team with a great coach. We looked lost (again) when the 3 wasn’t falling we had no plan b.
They will be alright. But Dantoni needs to make some adjustments. Utah is playing the 3 point line and allowing the rockets to drive into Rudy.
Tonight we have a poor defense and offense,we didn't make a lot of threes...Why did we leave wide open joe ingles for threes many times and Gerald Green need more time he is a winning card
We should be whippin their butts no excuses for this. We ARE the better team...need ro play like it!!
Jazz didn’t win that, Rockets lost it. 25% in the final quarter? Now that’s a joke! Pull yourselves together!
I can't believe that I actually heard someone yelling "airball" at Harden IN Houston... Houston crowd is terrible
The Rockets are the team that's suposed to finally knock off the Warriors?
The Warriors getting Curry back is the equivalent of Thanos getting the last infinity stone.
Frauds, harden and Paul are the two biggest playoff chokers in the NBA. Losing to a lower seed missing their point guard is hilarious.
now the pressure is all on houston to get a win in utah. you know their crowd is gonna be rockin unlike ours. this went from no pressure at all, to tremendous pressure on them now. we'll see how they rebound
Rockets will be fine. Jazz just played much better. Sometimes you have to tip your hat. On to game 3.
Jazz is a threat. See you in Utah with Rubio playing its more interesting.
chill burks,ingles,crowder and exum dont play like that again.. still hats off to utah good game
Is it too late to trade our white dude for theirs ??
NOW WHAT ROCKETS, U R GOING ON THE ROAD,TO UTAH...REMEMBER THE JAZZ DON'T WAÑNA LOSE ON THEIR HOME...THEY GOT A NICE HOME RECORD PLAYOFFS...IF U FAIL , GOODBYE FINALS AND THE CHAMPIONSHIP...,
Why did they keep letting ingles get open shots omg lol
this ROOKIE that destroyed the Thunders big 3 is actually a beast and he plays like everything but a Rookie put some respect on his name
those Ingle three's were extremely frustrating to watch go in
How can a team with an all star, Potential MVP, DPOY get beat at home by a team with no all star and lead by a rookie?.. smh
Our defense looks like a piece of paper
Rockets will be the next OKC if we still play like tonight.
If jazz win game 3 there's gonna be some serious panic..no doubt
I think it's pretty clear these guys only care about a paycheck. They are more skilled than Utah top to bottom, and this is the result. Just pathetic. I wouldn't spend a penny on this crap.
They are open EVERYWHERE.
We just let them shoot 4 consecutive wide open 3s and the made all of them
