Jazz over the Rockets is Brigham Young's lock of the week

[goatsaag 279]

The Blazers winning the 4th quarter by 20 only playing 6 guys with 3 of them playing the full 48 minutes is pretty crazy.

Jazz about to get Billy Paultz-ed

[Pimphand 5552]

I won't be shocked if the Jazz win this series with the way this crew can totally goat fuck quarters and squander almost any size lead.

Fuck the Jazz and their shitty racist fans

[Slacks 6787]

Start the season better next time.

Whatever. Don't make a shit.

F Kenny G and the flute he rode in on.

[Rockethorn1978 6061]

Yea we a re the 4th seed because of injuries and a complete bed shit to start the year or we would have won 60 games and been the 1 seed, somehow we ended up with 53 wins and a 4 seed. It sucks because now we get GS in the second round which will go 7 games. And LOL at the jazz, we will win that series 4-1 and 4-2 at the most, they do not have what it takes to win 3-4 games against the rockets in the playoffs with our much deeper than last season roster we have now. You can't compare regular season play to the playoffs and I am actually kinda shocked people on here do this year after year. Playoffs are 100 times different and with our deeper much better at defense and understanding the playoffs I Love this team chances but until I see them actually beat GS I will say we lose in the second round in 7 games. But the jazz have to basically play perfect and hit 15-20 3's a game to win 4 games against Houston.

[Murfdogg21 4398]

Gonna have to beat GS eventually anyway. Don’t make a shit if it’s in the second round. Maybe we will be more healthy and less tired in the second round than in the conference finals anyway. 

[Dr Fear 1264]

PJ Tucker today in his new Rolls Royce.

Jazz about to get Billy Paultz-ed

Houston in 5.

Billy Paultz was on the 1981 Rockets team with Moses Malone, so I've got some residual love for him.  Houston lost that 1985 series to Utah which had one of the biggest frontlines in history with Mark Eaton, the Whopper and a 7ft dude named Rich Kellie.

Probably lost that when his last FT clanged off the rim.

I remember Mark Eaton from childhood. He was scary to look at it and gave Hakeem worse fits than Jack Sikma did.

[ChickenSandwich 9795]

Feels like the playoffs were over when PG hit that three. Will have to see if Chris Paul has a playoff gear, and Harden must keep the other players involved so they don’t disappear in the second halves. 

[Slacks 6787]

I'm good with playing gsw in rd2... I think there's less mental pressure in Rd 2 than in conference finals.

It don't make a shit.

More so it’s x less games for Paul to get hurt before playing them. You’re playing them regardless.... I’d prefer to play them round 1, but this works.

Easiest realistic route is Jazz, Warriors, Nuggets, 76ers. Hopefully Nuggets and 76ers do their jobs. We got very lucky avoiding OKC in 1st and getting GSW in 2nd

Am I the only one that doesn't think it's a given the Nuggets make it to Round 2?

Rockets would have gotten past the Thunder, but likely a 6-7 game series with someone getting injured.

I think they make it to round 2 but them getting to the WCF seems like a stretch given how poorly they played down the last part of the season.

both the nuggets and spurs are very good at home and meh on the road.  i could absolutely see a 7 game series where the home team wins every game.

[TexArcher 37414]

GAME DAY.

The Spurs took umbrage at this post.

[ChickenSandwich 9795]

Jamal Murray went turtle. 

[Rockethorn1978 6061]

All these losses to start the playoffs should help get focused real quick tonight and avoid coming out of the gate stumbling.

[ChickenSandwich 9795]

Don’t like the illness to Capella with the Utah big men looming. 

[TexArcher 37414]

Fuck John Stockton.

Fuck Karl Malone.

Fuck Utah.

Fuck the Jazz.

Let's go.

[BigOrange1 6403]

i actually like this utah team, but now they must be put down.

let's get this party started!

[BigOrange1 6403]

big key to the rockets' win over utah last year was how badly capela outplayed gobert.  hopefully he can do that again this year.

[TexArcher 37414]

I like Donovan.

Grayson Allen can go fuck a goat.

[Planet Houston 4921]

Barkley just picked the Jazz to win the series. 🙄

[TexArcher 37414]

Harden going apeshit early.  5-6 for 12 pts.

[BigOrange1 6403]

nice start for james

[Tommy Nobis 905]

Already seen 9 different players on the court. Goes to show some of you he doesn’t have a shortened rotation in the playoffs like some of y’all criticize him for.

[BigOrange1 6403]

pretty good first quarter.  i hope house keeps shooting because he is just barely missing these shots right now.  

[GHOSTUSER 361]

The lack of calls on our end is troubling 

[Fat Bastard 590]

Lol, here come the refs fucked us excuses

[Nolacycling 893]

Utah is not going away

[Tommy Nobis 905]

Lol, here come the refs fucked us excuses

Excuses for what? Being up by 15?

[goatsaag 279]

This gimmick defense the Jazz are trying to play against Harden is not working at all.

[BigOrange1 6403]

well that was just fantastic.

Going around behind Harden to prevent the step back 3 and giving him the lane instead works for me.

Like clockwork.  Fat fuck still hates Houston because he allegedly wasn’t paid the full amount to waddle up and down the court.

[Zavala 1384]

What a gem from these officials

[UDontKnow 10439]

Rockets playing like garbage coming out of halftime. No excuse for some of these turnovers.

Supposedly he thinks they didnt pay him what they owed him when he played here so he always hates.

That's a bullshit foul on James.
