Lets start with last nights game vs the rockets...
-Paul millsap came back from a 5 game layoff (ties career high). Man was a beast, gave it his all, had 35 and 9, including some of those miracle threes.
-Big Al struggled, but still put up decent numbers (i say decent cuz he's been playing like a superstar). he had 17 pts and 19 boards
-the jazz actually shot great from downtown, hit 8 threes in 16 tries
-CJ is great starting
-One of those bad starts, claw your way back games. Couldn't ever get over the hump.
-The Jazz made 16 free throws, the rockets made 36, thats your game right there.
-kevin martin had 18 free throw attempts (he made them all), the refs called everything for him, very frustrating.
-Jazz were down 3 with 30 secs left and fouled... Personally I don't like that strategy, especially when houston is making 87% of there freebies. Try to get a stop and hit the 3, i just don't think the trading ft's for 3 pointers works very often. you have to hit a low % shot and they have to miss a high % shot (unless your rondo or shaq).
-Lowry went all insane on us with a trip dub
anways.. like the title says, the jazz's destiny (for this season) i think will be decided tonight vs the grizz. The jazz are still well and alive in the playoff race, but if we lose this game, it will be dang hard to sneek in. So if we win tonight then I'm all for playoffs, but if we lose... i won't stop cheering, but ill be fine with an extra lotto pick.
