Rockets vs. Jazz Post-Game 4/21/21

Rockets Silenced by Jazz, 112-89

Tune of a Beatdown.    Payback.    Fat Lady Sings.

Houston got thrashed in a game that was never close by the team with the NBA’s best-record, the Utah Jazz. The Jazz obliterated the Rockets 112-89, and controlled the game from start to finish.

Utah got some payback for recent playoff exits Houston dealt them in the past, but this payback only helps the Rockets’ lottery chances.

After the loss to the Jazz, Houston has now been officially eliminated from playoff contention. In other words, the fat lady’s sung her swan song on this season for the Rockets. Houston has to focus on working towards next year by building chemistry and seeing who will be in town for the long-term.
