I think either Utah will win or Houston will cover.

That narrows it down Razz.

I'm really not sure what to think about this game myself. Houston has just flat out played terrible in these past few games. I could make a case for either side, but I think it's best to just pass on this one.

Haha, yeah, that was probably a poor answer. What I meant was that as long as the Jazz handle the early storm - which Houston certainly will bring - then I believe they will win the game. On the other hand, I wouldn't be totally shocked if it's 28-13 at the end of the first quarter, and I don't think a young Jazz team will be able to rebound from that.
There's probably a little value in the Jazz moneyline, but it's really just a game I am going to watch. If I decide to play anything, it will be the under.

The losing plays (I've been ice cold in the playoffs for most part) are likely to be Jazz ML and maybe a Jazz/Under 1H parlay.

Unless Alston and Head can score consistenly Utah can pound on Yao, and McGrady is a liability. I expect a low score ugly game which favors Utah imo. I seen no value in Houston -5 or ML.

This one was probably one of the strangest endings i've seen in this entire playoffs. Why in the world wouldn't Houston foul with like 18 seconds left in the game when they were down 2 points until there was 1.7 left on the clock.

Who gives a $hit, I'm just glad they did what they did.

Never liked Jeff Van Gundy as a coach. They can't be pleased with what he's done in Houston. Nothing.

I like JVG as a NBA coach; he's fairly predictable and that's good for us bettors.
