Game 3 - Rockets @ Jazz

Truth said:
you are talking about the play when Harden ran into Rudy, punched him in the face, and flopped, right?

Rudy fouled him. They showed the replay like 3 times on tv. Rudy fouled him on each replay. I’m sorry that that foul call hurt us but it was a good call.

Besides, we got the foul call back when the refs bailed Mitchell out on the very next possession when they whistled Gordon.

The refs didn’t lose us this game.
 
Well, that sucks. Played really hard. My thoughts:

1. We missed too many wide open 3's and too many free throws. Everybody was guilty.

2. Rubio, Exum, Neto and Grayson combined to make 3 shots. We simply have to have more from our PG position.

3. Defense looked much better. I don't think Houston played as poorly as the media will make it out to be. Harden yes, the rest played well.

Honorable Mention: no shock at all that with Harden and Paul in such bad foul trouble that Houston doesn't get called for a single foul for the first 10+ minutes of the 4th quarter. And neither star player fouls out. Doesn't shock me one bit.

DM is young and will get better. We need to surround him with a better team.

This offseason has to see change or we will be an also-ran for years to come.

No worse place to be in the NBA than in the middle.

He will get better. This early in his career a nice *** whooping may be what he needs... live in the gym and film room.

Dude. Give us time. It's only Don's second year

??

We have a roster that’s relying entirely on a second year player to score, and absolutely nobody can reliably get buckets. How does the comment of not having put together a good enough roster translate into “just wait until Donovan can really do everything else that his team can’t”?

Time isn’t the problem here. This team needs a better point guard and a legitimate second offensive option. Without it they will continue to be a middle of the pack team that makes first round playoff exits. As much as Mitchell struggled he was the only bright spot in this game for the Jazz. Everyone else is/was garbage.
 
Blow up our nucleus keep Mitchell and Gobert. Everyone else is expandable. Seeing Mitchell's face is why I think our players leave. Too much emphasis on structure and not enough support or the embrace to evolve. That being said I'm being emotional now, just hate losing and having the window continually close on us. Oh well

How come you didn't quote me on donovan's shooting after you said he had 25 points? Cause shooting 7-24 is absolute trash and you didn't want to look even more stupid than you already are

Donovan was a beast tonight. Go be a ****** fan for a different team. Literally no one here likes you.
 
6-23 3 pt shooting from Rubio, Jingles, Korver, crowder, and Royce.

66 percent free throw shooting overall.

But sure, let’s bitch about Gobert being called for a foul...

We need better guards. We need someone other than Mitchell who can create off the dribble and score. Pick any of Houston’s scrub shooters and they’d be our best shooters. Pick 2 of 3, Tucker, green, or Rivers, and they’d revolutionize our offense.

But sure, let’s bitch about Gobert being called for a foul...

Good night boys.
 
This is unfortunate. Had good chances to win this game. If they had I could’ve seen this going 7. Now though, sweep or Houston in 6. Disappointing end to a decent season.
 
Such a great effort ....

To many 3s , didn’t use the mismatch in the paint enough with favs

2 FTs by Mitchell and Rubio in the 3rd wow ... can’t do that

Would of liked to of seen more of Niang
