	Either stretch you look at, the Rockets finished this season strong from either the 15-17 or the 24-20 point. Really amazing record 40-10 - - WOW!!! It would be a shame for them to lose in the first round again. Even being a homer, I see us falling to the Jazz in 6. Tell me I'm wrong Rockets fans.

	I just can't say that we will lose. It is not an option for me. Do have have some doubt but I will not express it. Am I confident yes I am. I think for us to win this series we MUST not let it go to 7 games. We got to win one in Utah and not let the Jazz steal one here in Houston. The Rockets can win the series but I just hate the thought of it going to 7 games. Jerry Slone is a great coach and has been in Utah a long time and his system in burned in the Jazz. We have a new coach who from what I read hasn't installed more that 50 -60% of his offense yet. That fact could come to bite us if we get in a MUST WIN game 7 and the Jazz play us very physical and we cant get in the lane and dish the ball around. There is no pass it inside, wait for the double, then move the ball around. We have to be able to get in the lane and make them colapse and then move the ball around that way. I am going with Rockets in six!

	To be honest, im too loyal of a fan to just say we're not gunna win I guess. I think it all depends on our roll players and how they play, yeah Rafer Alston is out atleast two games, but I like Bobby Jackson and Aaron Brooks and thank you god Rick Adleman is playing Steve Novak. As our commentators love to say him shooting an open 3 pointer is like a layup for him. It's basically about our 3 point shooting and if T-mac gets shut down or not, he has a sore shoulder so will that hinder him on going to the basket or not. So, we just gotta see I think.

	T-Choke will be back at it again. 11 seasons - never past the first round. Wonderful http://utahjazzfans2008.blogspot.com/

	I tried man, I tried (sob) - Tracy McGrady, May 2007Talk about the Jazz's road woes all you want. Game 1 was never really in doubt, in my opinion. Even when the Rockets made their little run in the 3rd, I never really felt like the game was in jeopardy. McGrady just isn't going to do this with his little shoulder wrap. The only other decent Rocket is Luis Scola. If Utah can take game 2, the brooms are coming out. If not, it's over in 5.
