Houston got past Utah 4-2 to get past the Western Conference Finals with a 102-88 win that increased the pressure on the Utah coach. Coach Young had to suffer through the game as his players were ineffective and his former fans were heckling. To make matters worse, the team was dominated by hated Houston, a bad thing for any Utah coach. "That ---- man can't win a ---- game if his ---- life depended on it!" screamed one disgruntled fan, who is obviously tired of Utah losing ways. While Utah deny it, rumors about that they have already started a search for a new coach who can turn this franchise around. It was just more fuel for the fire today when Houston took Utah behind the woodpile for a 102-88 whooping. Although Vegas was predicting a Houston win, many people believed the Utah certainly had the talent to knock them off. Hill did everything in his power to help his coach, but in the end Sims led the Houston to victory. "You hate to see somebody with Coach Young's character go through this. It's just a sad sight," commented Houston coach Bob. "We're obviously delighted to get the victory over such a worthy adversary in a big rivalry game like this, and all I can do is credit my players, my assistants, and our fans." Houston was led by Sims (18 points, 8 boards, 2 assists, 2 blocks), Thompson (20 points, 7 boards, 0 assists, 2 blocks), Vigil (6 points, 12 assists, 3 steals). Utah was led by Hill (19 points, 8 boards, 2 assists, 4 blocks), Perkins (22 points, 3 assists, a block), Robinson (21 points, 6 boards, 1 assists, a steal, a block).
