GameThread for Houston Rockets at Utah Jazz, Nov 2, 2009 8:00 PM CST

Houston Rockets at Utah Jazz, Nov 2, 2009 8:00 PM CST


Game Thread for tonight.  I should be around for the entire second half for sure.  There will be a game preview every game from here on out if at all possible.  Here's all you need to know though:

The Utah Jazz suck

Deron Williams is the second best PG in the league

Carlos Boozer doesn't even have the courtesy to stab a blind man in the front, he did that in his back

Interesting fact about Utah, in all seriousness, the women there are insane hot.  Not as hot as Texas because there is less diversity, but if you like white women, then you have found your mecca

Ronnie Brewer is good

Kirilenko is still a cry baby

Mehmet Okur can still shoot, but still can't play defense.  He also can't hold injured Yao's jock

Jerry Sloan is still on the watch list of potential Anti-Christs

About Utah...

Just curious.. What is so special about Utah Women?

by Kari on Nov 2, 2009 5:44 PM CST reply actions   0 recs

I've only been there twice for work(back when someone employed me), and it was the answer to the famous Blazing Saddles question

It was indeed where “all the white women” were at

Owner of the Cavs is blind

He was let out of his rookie contract explicitly to sign a contract the Cavs had for him. He agreed verbally, they let him out of the rookie contract, and then he signed with the Jazz completely out of the blue

1) I love that the game thread is starting off with a discussion of Utah Women (‘W’? A proper noun?)

2) I don’t want to presume to know why Lee likes Utah women, but I had an awesome college girlfriend from SLC. So, 2nd that.

3) And let’s just say that Boozer has had two opportunities to paint himself as a mercenary, and he has used 1.5 of them (leaving Cleveland in ’04 and then saying that he would leave Utah in ’09, until he got hurt and the market crashed).

If Boozer keeps playing "D" like that

Then he’ll foul out even in Utah by the end of the 1st

Absolutely

I actually think Houston has 3 good ones right now. We’ll definitively see with Rick Smith after this CBA thing is all played out I guess. Ed Wade is really doing a great job of rebuilding the minors and he’s getting an occasional trade in here and there that forces the Astros to go young, right under Drayton’s nose

It pains me as a NBA fan

to have these shitty refs “reffing” … I think if the rockets are up by 10 with a minute left. They should all fall down and see if they get a call to go to them or if the refs will call a foul on us

by EveryHoustonTeamRox! on Nov 2, 2009 9:54 PM CST reply actions   0 recs

this is ridiculous

this is the WORST called game i have ever seen. flops and what not is one thing, but when ak 47 misses the dunk when untouched the ref calls it. just flat out ridiculous.

Backup PG

Anyone else notice that both tonight and vs. Portland that when Lowry is in and Brooks is out, Budinger usually brings the ball down? Do they want Lowry slashing more and think Budinger has enough of a mismatch to handle it? In any case, what confidence they have in their rookie forward!

This Rockets club wreaks havoc with most offenses. They get the other team out of

their comfort zone. The coaching staff and players such as Shane Battier, Chuck Hayes on the floor deserve a lot of credit for coming up with and executing the game plan..
