It's Simple, Mo Got Hot.

Mo Williams "In your eye" Buzzer beater shot to send the Jazz into overtime

"Man, I can't believe it.  I simply got hot." That pretty much explains it all, being down 7 with 40 seconds left that is pretty much the only line you can say.  In the game Mo drilled 9 threes, a new record, and shot 100% from three, he only missed one of his 12 field goals and ended with 34 points.  Carmello Anthony also scored a game high 18 points in the first half and played very well.  With 1/2 second left Mo Williams hit a dagger to tie it all up.  Bottom line of this game; DANG!

Jazz Fight hard but can't grab a road win against 1-3 Bobcats.

They fought hard but just couldn't steal a win.  The final score was 69-65 Bobcats, They now are below .500 at 3-4 and at 21 in the power rankings.  This match was a story of one on one with Mo Williams grabbing 25 points and Ramon Sessions tossing in 27.  But when it came down to it Kemba Walker was the deciding factor with 17 points.  The Jazz on the other hand have been an exciting team with a lot of potential, it will be fun to watch this team grow and possibly contend.

Week 2 Power Rankings out:

Rockets overcome Jazz 56-49

Too little too late is this games obvious story line.  The Jazz must have noticed they were down by 16 when the game was pretty much over.  Gordon Hayward was the one and only bright spot today but did it mostly in garbage time.  He shot 5-8 from the three point line and 8- 13 FG's which made him end up with twenty-one points.  Meanwhile Houston's trio of Kevin Martin, Jeremy Lin, and Chandler Parsons combined for 32 points, 6 rebounds, and 8 assists while only giving up 1 TO.

21 points is a lot in a five minute game don't be denied, but it isn't enough when your all alone being the only one doing any thing.
