    I'm not sure I can take one more flop from Tyson Chandler on a loose ball foul from a rebound.

    I just can't...

    Isn't that more than they were favored by in Games 1 and 2?

    Rockets, just concentrate on defense, first and foremost. Then focus on getting into the paint as much as possible. Either go to the basket or get the ball to Dwight or Jones as you draw the defender. Stop kicking potential layups out for threes. I've never seen a team miss so many layups or pass up so many potential layups. If there's one constant with the Rockets, it's that as soon as they start settling for threes instead of going to the basket, the game starts to unravel for them.

    Tonight's refs: Tony Brothers, John Goble, and Zach Zarba.

    Isn't Brothers is one of the more 'anti-harden' officials? Hopefully, the Rockets won't make it a close enough game to even matter. This series doesn't need to be extended any longer than it already has been.

    If the Rockets realize that they have to play defense and slow the tempo, rather than trying to outgun and outrun the Mavs, it won't matter who the officials are. They'll win with relative ease.

    If they do what they've done the last two games, we'll likely see a Game 6.
