    This is a career defining moment for harden/cp3. They cant afford a let down here.

    This team is mature enough, talented enough, and has enough experience in big games. No excuse not to nut up.

    The Rockets have the 2018 MVP and the Jazz do not. This is unlike the raptors/cavs situation where the cavs have lerbum and the raps do not.

    I believe in this team 100% lets get it

    They should have saved that 50 point quarter instead of wasting it on the Timberwolves.

    The Jazz are a very good home team, but we’ve beaten them there before. If the Rockets are who I think they are, they will come out sharp and ready and take it to the Jazz tonight.

    I agree, big night for CP3 and Capela. Coaches have to bring their A game, but players need to ball. CP3 come on buddy!!

    To be honest I’m not happy with the loss, but I am not really worried. I think we’ll end this in 5.

    They should spread it out a bit. No more sub-30% 3 point games.

    @DreamShook runs in different circles than me. The circles that I run in tend to use “nut up” as a way of saying “man up, face the challenge, or dont back down”

    The top definition on urban dictionary is more in line with my interpretation.

    Just curious,,,wrt to Sports, how exactly does "nut up" add to (or differentiate from) the well-established idiom "man up." Do you just prefer it to "man up" in a sports context?

    Or do you just prefer ejaculation references, when given a choice. :D

    Game thread is full of Rockets Win = "I just came" "I nutted" ... lulz, you kids

    I don't see the Jazz shooting over 50% from the field and over 60% from three in too many games going forward. I think the Rockets win tonight and take the series in 6.

    No need to be bitter about never experiencing an ejaculation ;)
