Game 57: Rockets @ Jazz 2/23/16 8:00 PM CDT 

Post#1 » by Mr. E » Wed Feb 24, 2016 2:03 am

The Rockets continue their road trip and their "Every Game Is Important" tour against the team that is 1/2 game behind them for the 8th seed, the Jazz.

Motiejunas & Thornton are back with the team, and hopefully they can bring some life to the bench. I'm assuming that Motie is good to go for tonight, but I haven't heard anything confirming that yet. I'm hoping that this trade lights a fire under Thornton and he starts playing out of his mind for his next contract.

Going up against a tall team, so I'm expecting a rough game, but they should be able to win it. Please avoid the Cold Spells!

Go Rockets!

I really like Trey Burke. Shame that Lawson deal didn't happen.

If Smith isn't going to be confident get Jones back in.

Dumb mistakes by the stars is on JB. Just careless.

If there is one thing that bothers me about James, it's that he doesn't value possessions the way he should and that's on both ends of the floor. He often makes it harder on himself.

This team is not sharp. Road games are tough but this team looks unpracticed.

whenever someone shoot an outside shot
everyone just stand and watch
nobody run back for defense
we always get killed like that

These are all obviously INTENTIONAL fouls. I can't imagine fouls more fitting of the definition of intentional foul.

These refs are like college refs. They were blowing their whistles for every tiny bit of contact. That won't stop Brewer from reaching like an idiot though.

Also, HOW WAS THAT NOT AN AND ONE ON THE HARDEN THREE- DWIGHT FOUL.
Just because the ball isn't on its way up doesn't mean the shooting motion hasn't started. He already had his feet in position, squared up to the basket and was into his dip. Stupid.
