Jazz Wagon Fact Of The Day

Just a quick update for all of you NBA Playoff junkies and Utah Jazz Historians. How many times have the Utah Jazz and the Houston Rockets met in the playoffs and what is the series record between the two teams?

The Jazz have faced the Rockets a total of 5 times in the playoffs with the Jazz holding a record of 3 wins and 2 losses. Here is the history between the two teams:

1984-1985 Jazz Defeat Rockets 3-2, First Round
1993-1994 Rockets Defeat Jazz 4-1, conference Finals
1994-1995 Rockets Defeat Jazz 3-2, First Round
1996-1997 Jazz Defeat Rockets 4-2, conference Finals (Bill Walton, "Uh Oh.")
1997-1998 Jazz Defeat Rockets 3-2, First Round
2006-2007 To be determined.

These two teams have always had a great playoff rivalry and I for one am getting more and more excited to see it renewed, even though watching the Rockets is painful. Jazz will win this year in 5 games.
