**BigOrangeTitans** · 04-07-10, 01:01 AM

I just dont trust the Pocket rockets against a physical team. sry

**rvfrank** · 04-07-10, 01:13 AM

Utah should have lost they the refs called that game basically.. OKC was downright better than Utah it was too obvious most of the calls went to Utah side

**art_pogi** · 04-07-10, 01:34 AM

Utah looks good

**Eggspert** · 04-07-10, 02:53 AM

ok i am going to save some of you some money on this one. utah will cover handily. the last 3 times that the rockets have been on a back to back they have failed to cover and lost those games. the utah jazz r 12-4 ATS when they play back to back games while the rockets are a terrible 5-15 ATS when on a back to back. the rockets are a terrible home team when it comes to covering. utah has superior talent and something to play for. the rockets will be tired and have nothing to play for.reallly to easy.

compare houston to oklahoma

**balman** · 04-07-10, 02:46 PM

Utah is 19-19 on the road... after a tuff win last night and hitting the road ... take hou ML

Utah's frontcourt is always the difference in this matchup. And both teams are travelling on a back to back, so trends talk are moot.

**Gopi-1** · 04-07-10, 03:42 PM

The Jazz are 21-16-1 ATS on the ROAD, while the Rockets are 16-22 ATS at HOME...

**og4667** · 04-07-10, 03:54 PM

Ariza was quoted saying how hard they worked to try and get to the playoffs and now it is tough to get motivated.

**QUEST001** · 04-07-10, 04:56 PM

Jazz get it done tonight...gl

**Snowball** · 04-07-10, 04:58 PM

i like the Rockets in this.. Utah is burnt out.

**THE HITMAN** · 04-07-10, 07:28 PM

Utah's past schedule dictates a play on Houston tonite.

**CHAZ** · 04-07-10, 08:09 PM

Houston is ripping the Jazz a new one. Worst part is I bet against them and I almost never bet against the home team.

**LT Profits** · 04-07-10, 08:18 PM

I wish I would have seen this thread earlier, this game had Rockets or pass written all over it. For those saying the Jazz had a good record when playing back-to-back, in none of the previous B2B did they go to overtime the night before, so that makes this game unique. Plus the fact that they played at an outrageously fast pace last night (129-129 after regulation). I used the same logic suggesting avoiding Oklahoma City tonight in other threads.

**seaborneq** · 04-07-10, 09:10 PM

Too easy tonight.

OKC is doing pretty well against Denver. Up DD in the 4th quarter.

OK, but I just didn't want it to seem like I only came in here because Rockets were up by 30, that I had legit reason for liking Rockets beforehand.

Seems the fatigue also caught up with Thunder too.

**tltaylor89** · 04-07-10, 09:58 PM

ROckets putting it away.

**HoulihansTX** · 04-07-10, 09:59 PM

This was one of my few winners.
