When asked to explain my feelings towards the Utah Jazz I have to throw all logic and reason out of the question. The only person who may sum up my feelings towards our friends in Salt Lake City may be actor Andy Serkis, best known for playing the role of Gollum in Lord of the Rings. That character sums up how I feel about the Jazz.


"I HATES THEM! I HATES THEM!

DIRTY, DIRTY JAZZ!

DIRTY THIEVES!

I HATES THOSE JAZZ!

gollum...gollum...

HATES THEM!!!"


And I am OK with this.

Rockets should have this in bag....It will be a tight game, but Jazz just can't seem to be able to finish off games..

This team is so fun to watch, and we're doing this with no Beverley and Chandler being off his game. Can't wait for tonight!

This will be a good test for the Twin Towers... Favors and Kanter are young and mostly unproven but they can play

Unlike McRoberts or Dirk, neither one is a threat from outisde, Kanter is 1 of 2 on 3 pointers for his career. Favors is 0 for 5.

We better beat the jazz. I can't stand losing to the jazz even worse than the lakers mavs or spurs.

We suck at b2bs (last year at least) but they played last night too so hopefully we don't get beat by a team We all hate this much

I hope they trade Hayward so I can root for him after a few years (when he gets jazz stink off of him)

This a game where the Asik /Howard combo is going to work and I like our front court a hell of a lot better. This should be a easy game the Rockets are better top to bottom. If the rockets don't win by twenty with bench playing garbage time I will be piss. I want to motie and jones on the court.

Better to get this over with now rather than later.

with the way D-Mo been playing i wont be surprise to see McHale put Parsons at PF and Brewer at SF
if Parsons can't defend Favors then you'll probably see Smith

i think this is McHale's list

1. Harden
2. Howard
3. Parsons
4. Beverley
5. Lin
6. Asik
7. Garcia
8. Gasspi
9. Brooks
10. Brewer
11. Smith
12. Jones
13. Motiejunas
14. Canaan
15. Covington

I had a few drinks last night. Now as many of you know, morning after Grog Bog's as we call them in Australia, can be pretty potent, in consistency, and smell.

After my morning bog, I immediately thought of Utah. Coincidence?

This sums up my feelings towards the Utah Jizz. Irrational? Probably. But there are feelings you have in life, I have nothing but hatred for the Jizz. I think I actually hate Utah more than Dallas.

I can still smell Brewer's taint, even if he is wearing the best cologne available (Eu Du Rockets with a touch of beard.)

in the immortal words of "The Thing" It's clobberin' time.
