Ricky Rubio May Be Out for 10 Days Due to Hamstring Injury

 

[nuraman00]

With the way series are spaced out in the 2nd round, 10 days might only be 3 games, not 4.

 

[nuraman00]

Jazz have to capitalize on turnovers.

Crowder fouled after someone else steals.

 

[nuraman00]

It is 44 - 70!

It is 44 - 70!

I prefer the game to be the following without cheating and making us win:

Utah: 29-18-21-28-96
Hou: 34-22-24-30-110

What do those numbers mean?

Points per quarter. Real life:

Utah: 21-18-29-28-96
Hou: 34-30-22-24-110

Why are you giving the Jazz more points in the 1st (29 instead of 21), and why are you taking away Rockets points in the 2nd (22 instead of 30)?

Preferred game flow would be remaining close every quarter, rather than a 44-70 game followed by 52-40 comeback. I would rather be down by 5, then 9, then 12, then 14. Not down by 13, then 25, then 18, then 14.

Good point. I think I agree.

I know what happened to us in Game 5 against Oklahoma City, but get our starters out of the game. They are down by 25-30 in the fourth quarter. Do not get anyone injured where they are going to have to rehab the beginning of next year. Or to be more optimistic Game 4.

 

[MHSL82]

Give Stockton some time. We don't need to lose by 15 after a rally.

I missed the last several games, and TNT games don't have streaming replays.

How was game 2? I'd rather focus on that, since it was a win.

 

[nuraman00]

Bump?

Game 2 was good because I didn't want to deal with 0-2, but I knew that they were just going to say that they were complacent. I wanted them to go politically correct and just say that the Jazz are a good team. But instead they had to say that they were lulled into sleep.

Then they win the next three, with one not being close at all, so that's that. They obviously are the better team. I would've liked to lose in six instead of five. Of course, I don't like to lose either way but it was going to happen.

Someone asked whether it would be better to lose in game five so we would not lose on our home court. I said we lost there already twice so what is three and why would it be better to lose Game 5 and not win again?

Lol. I agree, I'd rather lose in a longer series, than a shorter series. Where the loss location is, doesn't matter.
