T-MAC

What two players in the history of the Jazz have dominated utah? Michael Jordan and T-MAC!!! Sorry Jazz fans i want you all to hush hush and start supporting Real Salt Lake your soccer team cuz this series is over! We have world champion banners what is in ESA? Division banners!

ZEKE

By the time the fourth quarter had started this game was over. Sure it was easy to score, the Jazz defence was soft the entire game. It`s no wonder Mcgrady or is it grady had an easy time scoring along with the rest of the team.

Sure....

T-Mac has dominated the Jazz? How? By losing to them in the playoffs last year and going 3-8 against the Jazz this season? Live in the past as much as you want with your championship over 12 years ago, the Rockets aren't making it past the first round... again.

Pressure

The difference between game 5 and the other games is that there was no pressure. I could have scored in game 5 against the Jazz because they were already looking to game 6. T-Mac is a choker when it counts.

Re: T-MAC

What champion banners have come since you lost Clyde the Glide and Hakeem the Dream....Oh...NONE! The series is not over....Time to put the fishin' hats on the rockets!

smac

three of six shooting in a fourth quarter that was meaningless! that means nothing. look at the stats of the close games that the rockets lost... Stacey didn't play well in those games.... hmmmmm..... Oh, and as a sidenote, I wouldn't compare any rockets (or jazz players for that matter) to Jordan--what a joke!

Motto

I have a new motto for you Jazz fans it should be your state motto for the one professional team you have ONE AND DONE!!!

fossil

if we do get eliminated who would want to face the dreded lakers and the jerk kobe who was rude to the utah fans......notice he shoots about 50 times a game. i wonder what the percentage is......

Sleepy

T-Mac had better be rested. He is always half asleep--just look at his eyes. It makes me chuckle to hear the Rockets fans stating that this series is over when we own a 3-2 lead with game 6 at home. Can't wait until the end of Friday's game. The greatest thing about a Jazz series win,other than seeing Tracey--by the way, isn't that a girl's name--will be the silencing of the uber-obnoxious Rockets fans. Look forward to reading, or not, the comments from the lame on Saturday

DOMINATION

McGrady 4th Quarter Summary:

Games 1-2: 0 for 3 shooting
Games 3-4: 3 for 9 shooting
Game 5 : 3 for 6 shooting

Series Total: 6 for 19 shooting

T-Mac going 32% in the 4th quarter this series. Can you say domination...dominator..the dominatrix???

Maybe the Jazz philosophy should be guard the other Rockets and leave McGrady alone to shoot, kind of like guys leave Collins open from 12 out...oh wait, Collins shoots a better percentage....my bad!

AWOL

If Boozer were in the Army he'd be courtmartialed for being AWOL during this whole series. He's a big-time loozer when the chips are down.

funny

yea it doesnt matter what tmac did in the 4th. but at the start of the game, it was tmac who kept the rokets on top. 2 point lead in the first. then bench came in and tmac kept the lead with his 11 points in the first. then in the 3rd he scored 10 to keep the jazz from makeing the games close. no pressure says a jazz fan? its game 5 elimination and you say there is no pressure on the rockets? you jazz need to realize that the rockets offense has found its groove. if it carries over for game 6, all the pressure is on the jazz.

Jazz in 6

Ya, Tmac dominates the Jazz, thats why he is going to be 0-7 in the playoffs this Friday night. Quit living in the past. Who cares what Houston did 35 years ago. The Jazz just wanted some rest for this Friday and to give the rockettes some fake confidence because they felt bad for them.
Really, the rockettes defense has been really really good but look for the Jazz to have a quicker step and finally have a good game this series.

Jazz in 6!!!

Radical

It's Time!....Go Rockets....Take it back home for a game seven.

rox vs lakers

rox 2-1 vs the lakers this season

jazz best to come?

ever since they starting talking, they have been doing pretty bad. boozer said he and dwil can get 30 a night each, if not ak harpring okur will give 20-25 if they did bad. so far all i have seen is talk and no play. rox d has been good and now the offense has come along. jazz be afraid, be very afraid. especially if the rockets start shooting 45%+.

ocjazz

To Motto...how do you figure ONE and DONE??? Let me see in 2007, the JAZZ defeated Yao & TMac in 1st round, kicked GS' butts in 2nd round, but lost to SA...so that's 3 and DONE. Now, "Rockettes" lost to JAZZ after 2-0 and home court advantage in 1st round. Hm...that looks like ONE and DEAD!!!!!!

re: funny

I have an AUNT named Tracy. I also have a co-worker named Tracy. BOTH ARE GIRLS......no wonder the crying and whinning come natural to TRACY Mac.

Re: Re: T-MAC

What champion banners have come for Jazz since...ever? ....Oh...NONE! Remember Karl Malone begged door by door for a ring?!

I am a huge Rocket fan but very realistic and the chances of us making it out of the first round are very slim but you people making fun of T-Mac's name. You belong in the 2nd grade. The Rockets will come out in game 6 and keep it close and have a chance with 5 minutes to go in the game and we'll see what happens. All I can say I'm proud of my depleted Rockets for their performance can you say that of your Jazz's performance so far. Final word: we had a better record than you in the regular season and pushing you at least 6 without Yao. I hope you enjoy the first round win because that will be it for the Jazz.-Out
