Too many pages.

What exactly is wrong with the stickied thread of the same name?

So this is why Utah mailed in the game against the Spurs. Great strategy.

And the Jazz gain homecourt advantage.

Good show Jazz, good show.

0 points, 0-3 fg in the 4th for tmac. 7-21 total. rockets don't have a chance if he plays like that.

HC is gone!! Great Job Utah..

Great Effort by the Rockets. They had the momentum when they went small, but when Utah matched it, it was over.

Poor Tmac =(

He always plays like that. Very shallow boxscore.

I don't want to say Houston's done, it's only been one game after all, but they are in deep sh*t.

JStock, I don't know why you would have been down on the Jazz as of late. They were playing as well as anyone else coming in. I just think you're a DWill hater...

LMFAO! Get that **** out of here, man. It's called realism. When the Jazz don't show up to play, Deron included, I call them and him out. Sorry if I don't have a blind hard-on for him like everyone else at all times. I've said it before, when Deron is on his game, he's the best PG in the league.

Man, I am so emotionally tired. Good job Jazz.

Bobby Jackson was great for the Jazz as well.

3-15 from the field, 1-7 from downtown, 7 points
