Harden is on a quest for the 2 seed, and the road to the MVP just happens to run throught Utah.
Rockets win 140-80, a preview of the destruction of oakland that is to come
But if the Rockets 3’s are falling, as in above 35%, they should win. The Jazz will be at least a bit tired on a back to back and have a tough time closing on the perimeter off the Rox ball movement. If the 3’s aren’t falling though, The Jazz are excellent at defending the paint, and it will be tough for the Rockets to feast on H&C alley oops as they have the last couple of games, and the Jazz would win in that case.
let's guard Rodney Hood this time
Why does Rodney Hood hate the Rockets so damn much. Shooting 50% from 3 in his career against the Rockets. He's a 36% shooter from there.
Rodney Hood can never miss against us i don’t know why
Damn, he really doesn't miss
ouchie!
Even worse when you are playing a SF at PF and switching them on a monster like Gobert. dude is huge.
Dmn Golbert is head and shoulders over Nene
dat dude is tall dough...
Jazz's shooting will die down. Don't worry, guys. We got this.
You put these guys in an open gym and they probably won't go 8/10 from three. This is garbage
now that the Jazz have a big lead, they can slow down the pace and grind us down with defense
Of course Hayward makes a stupid off the dribble super contested 3 right at the shot clock Buzzer. Because why not.
There really is no defense for them just jacking **** up and making it. Honestly one of the more frustrating things about basketball in general
Christ. They're not making open shots, they're making every contested shot. Nothing you can do about that.
jazz shooting like golden state out here wtf
We need to not play Nene when Gobert is on the floor for starters.
I hope we do whatever is possible to prevent a playoff series against them, especally if they get homecourt If that means going from the 4 seed to the 6 seed, so be it
we should be able to keep it close for one final push, our defense can get some stops, but not mentally tough enough to handle all the soul crushing 25ft last sec contested jump shot
not really sure what the Rockets can do, they're getting decent looks from 3 and Gobert is just going to destroy anyone going to the rim. Best counter against Gobert is a stretch 5 which this team doesn't have.
Jazz on second night of b2b and we do this.... ugh
That is just unreal. What the **** are you supposed to do against this kind of shooting
Yeah but they are just ****ing lighting it up tonight. They haven't shot this well since Stockton (triggered myself)
WTF. How good is Gobert. Is he the best defensive center? Mayber after Whiteside?
• Yeah he's pretty damn good, has superhuman arms
Been frustrating to watch this game. They've been holding us at arms length for like three quarters cause they are draining everything. Sucks
Can't do anything when they knock down literally every 3.
Gordon Hayward free stroking it. no one interested in contesting at all
now Joe Johnson is killing us. guard somebody
Warriors D isn't as good as the Jazz. Believe it or not.
Today I backed Rockets, Hornets, Cavs, Spurs, Clippers, Lakers, Spurs to win. They all lost – unreal
Man none of these guys can miss for the Jazz. And its not just us playing **** defense
