I think the Mavs win is a good thing for us. If Utah loses to the Lakers tomorrow night, the Mavs would have locked up 7th seed or higher and avoided the Lakers in the first round and really do not have too much to play for in the final game against us on Wednesday.
you must've been absent from the board for the first part of the season.. a good portion of clutchfans favored the Hornets.. in direct comparison to the Rockets.. as the better team.. and ever since Peja's return.. you see an equal number of people ticketing them as the third biggest threat for the Rockets post-first round aspirations.. it's hard to tell if these people have watched the games.. stemming all the way from last season.. 20+ pt blowouts have been the unsurprising end of most of our match-ups against them.. yet these people continue to either overestimate them.. or underestimate the Rockets in their contests.. inexplicably so..
i dont really pay attention when things like that are said. I thought the hornets were overrated since last season. They had a new team, new concept, new style in a way, so teams weren't really ready, especially for the tyson-CP combo, so they overachieved. Now teams just figured them out. CP is too good to not take over and win several games for them, but these guys aren't contenders.
1 to go... and so long as everyone is crying about it, if the Jazz lose tomorrow night, the Mavs will stay in the 7th seed, and thereby allowing a Houston win on Wednesday to give us a Houston vs. Dallas round one. Win out, Rockets!
Well game over! Time to go give someone a beatdown on NBA2k9. James White, player of the game. 32 points, all dunks.
