Game Thread 37: Jazz @ Rockets 1/7/2016

Post #1 » by **Mr. E** » Thu Jan 7, 2016 3:03 pm

Record: 17-19
Location: Toyota Center - Houston, TX
Time: 7:00 PM CDT

Let's be honest - this team should have lost the last game to the Jazz, but they managed to eke out a win at the end. They play the Jazz again and as far as I know all of the players who were out for the last game are still out for this one.

Montrezl, save us all!

If you are going to the game tonight, please leave your laser pointers at home.

Go Rockets!

So Lawson is out and Howard is a GTD.

Should be fun!

No Dwight, no Ty, no Dream Crowe.

I like the quick start, though!

And they slowed down really quickly.

My god Jones is a terrible defender.

I've never seen someone who actually gives effort and has the physical ability to be a great defender be so damn bad at it. Only game this year he was any good on D was Christmas Day

It's really sad to see how much Ariza has fallen off from last year on both ends

Did not score 40 points in the first half against a team who played last night...at home. :nonono:

Man getting Ariza over Chandler looked good last year but now...

Harden just stopped a 1-3 fast break. More of that James

Notice how without the Dwight-Capela combo James can get wherever he wants on the court. I bet JBB will still play the hell out of it though because he's not very bright

And it was a great block!

Had to laugh at that one! Jason Terry's going to be on some highlight reels tonight!

Post #17 » by **Mr. E** » Fri Jan 8, 2016 2:37 am

And JET made up for it!

Is it just me or has J.B. gotten a lot more grey in his beard this year?

Everyone rotates then Jones is standing in no mans land and booker scores. Once again.

Also why is Jones not shooting the ball anymore? They are sagging off like he's Dwight Howard and he refuses to take the three. That's probably his best offensive skill besides going coast to coast which he also doesn't do enough
