Utah Jazz 86, Houston Rockets 82
The Rockets only shot 36.7% from the floor last night and it killed them in the end. Tracy McGrady only shot 9 of 25 from the floor but he still finished with 23 points, 10 rebounds and 8 assists. Rafer Alston had a decent game as he finished up with 15 points, 4 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 steals. Carl Landry pitched in with 13 points, 6 rebounds and 2 steals off the bench for the Rockets. The Rockets are now down 3-1 in this series.
man this series is fixed just like the suns and spurs. rockets won tonight in houston, but it felt like utah never really put in any effort tonight. either they really wanted to take this back home and win, or they really sucked tonight. but something smells fishy though. if you can recall the poor officiating in game 3 for the suns you’ll see what i mean. also watch game five for the rockets and watch how unenthusiatically the jass played. no real effort in moving around like they did in the past four games
I think you’ll see the Jazz best effort in the game #6. Some teams just step up when facing an end to their season and that’s what the Rockets did on Tuesday.
