2nd half NO -3 is a small action play.. Saints get the ball back... Falcons are falling behind and whave already had to abandon the running game.
Brees and o line is starting to pick up the blitz and make them pay with big yardage plays..... If the saints score at the beginning of half saints d will gamble and catch another interception...

Utah should be embarassed by this rebounding performance against such a short Rockets team.
Boozer is going to be a serious distraction in Utah this year as the fans seem to have a serious dislike for him right now.
Getting Budinger in the 2nd round was an absolute steal for Houston.
Maybe it because I am about to drop 440 on Utah but my god they BLOW!
This team looks horrible right now.
Bench is useless and Boozer is even more useless than the bench.
They play no defense and just settle for bad outside shot over and over again.
Where is the Deron Williams attacking the rim??

I'm licking some wounds myself. -3U but I'm chasing this. Somehow, I feel ok. +148 was a good play. 
Now I'm going to need to wait a few days to collect my money. LOL

Allowing Houston to shoot around 56% (in the 2nd half) =/= lockdown defense. Houston wants to run -> dictate pace -> Utah gladly complies.
What Deron Williams shares in common w/ Chris Paul is that the Jazz are also pretty much a one-man team - Williams enjoys a better cast, but none of his teammates are truly stratospheric players - nice, but not sublime/stellar... Okur, Millsap, Boozer, Kirilenko, etc. are NICE, not great - and b/c of the dilution of the league through expansion (like all other major sports in North America), players that would sit at the far end of the bench either start or are first to replace those who do indeed start.
The home court advantage that Utah enjoys grossly inflates their winning percentage and they're able to continue to mine the ILLUSORY image of hard-nosed resolute defenders.
Utah = pretenders, able to win more than lose, but hardly a surefire contender for the crown.

you are very keen on accessing the nba talent. I seem to be more of a numbers guy so I am a little lost and just being a action junkie..
Thanks for the input..

More than welcome PG - just trying to put everything into the big picture overall, details can take care of themselves after that...
It's just that after watching New Orleans and Paul deciding that he was fed up trying to set up his teammates and go for his finally, it was so evident the gulf b/w him and his teammates when it comes to talent. Williams also appears to sit in a similar situation. What separates the 2 though is that Williams is more prone to getting caught up in an uptempo game, going mano-e-mano w/ the opposition (something that was evident back when he played for the Illini in college) whereas Paul will play the game at HIS pace regardless of what the opposition tries to force.
I do have my eye on the late night MIN/LAC game.
