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

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