Gamethread: Game 1 of the 1st Round. Utah Jazz @ Houston Rockets. 7:30 MST

[nateboz]

Imagine if Utah went out of the norm and made a trade to get a 3rd star. This game proves the Jazz aren't even close to good enough.

Houston switches a lot on defense. They are comfortable shutting down your system and making someone beat them 1 on 1. All those easy things like Ingles look off layups are taken away on switches.
Long story short is someone has to step up big time and be the man. We have only one player that can do it, DM.

 

[fishonjazz]

Yep. All our defensive pride out the window. We go with a gimmicky D showing we are afraid of one player. Stupid.

Joe with ZERO points and only 1 assist. He is letting us down big time.

to be fair they phased him out of the offense for long stretches especially in the 1st q it seemed like he didnt even touch the ball

AKA a tweak. A minor adjustment. It takes two to make a deal and he made a major play for a legit PG or are we going to ignore all the reports from Jan - Feb?

He needs to land a major move. So let’s talk about it right. Not this tweak ********. Which is both in factual and missing the point.

How many teams made moves at the deadline this year alone? All but 4. 4. Utah was one of the 4 who did nothing.

Just play our normal d and throw Royce on Harden. Sell him on the opportunity.

Shaq clowning Rudy.

Kenny is 100% right

Lol everyone around here loved that video that suggested we do exactly this. I see a few positive adjustments that can be made, it is a game of percentages. (Alley oops are high percentage though...)

We’ll see. Definitely could have been a better half...

 

[Game6Conley]

The loss of Exum looms large..


The one possession where Neto dribbles the shotclock out and takes a contorted impossible baseline J over CP3 pretty much sums up the first half.

I’ll take the fract.

**** Houston and **** this “be nice, theyre human” ****.

I hope the earth swallows up Houston in a sink hole

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

Well of course they guess. They aren't robots.

If you don’t see it don’t call it... don’t guess

Can't wait for the local media (Locke, DJ&PK, etc.) to somehow spin this disaster tomorrow. They refuse to criticize Dennis Lindsay and Quinn Snyder. It drives me ****ing insane. Quinn, WTF were you thinking betting on leaving the BEST corner 3 shooter (Tucker shooting at around 56% from corner 3 this year) open time and time again. This game plan has been a $hitshow so far.

So, we don’t believe that the constant reports were true.

Got it.

If only the Jazz were as aggressive as your post.

I cant believe people on this board actually thought we had a chance against the rockets. Mind boggling

OK negative Nancy. Sometimes you have to choose to be positive in life.

Houston is the one team where this team desperately needs a player like Exum who can keep up with Harden and he's hurt as always. Doesn't help that Snyder's scheme is to let Harden get a runway into the paint every time he has the ball though.

 

[LoPo]

Our offense has to be better. We need to alternate Rubio and Donovan letting one of them attack. When they both are out, yikes.

I'm sure Quin will adjust.

Mods, ban this shot for trolling.

Turnovers and not covering the Harden drives with leaving guys wide open is the big difference in the game.
