    The Guard situation is concerning. Brea could just go to anywhere he wants. We need to stick Nick Johnson on him. JET and Pab gave nothing tonight.

    Scary how many points the Rockets have given up now that basically the pre-Rondo Mavs are back with that historically good offense. Rockets better win on Tuesday. James' performance was not good. There were times when he looked like he was in the 2012 Finals again. Hopefully he bounces back next game and stops being passive. And hopefully Dwight is not hurt.

    if you are talking about Howard, you have no idea what you are talking about and should leave.

    he is right up near the top for contested shots and lowest fg percentage against in the rim protection category

    Barely played defense all game, got beat BAD on offensive rebounds, and missed WAY too many 3s, many wide open.

    The way this team gets hot/cold though, I'd be very surprised if we ever sweep anyone. That being said, I have full confidence that we'll be hot in the majority of games in a 7 game series

    You can't defend the pick and roll if your point guard is old and decrepit and can't stay with the MUCH quicker Dallas PG.

    We missed like what 15 shots in a row? Can't win with that BS.

    Past two games giving up too many pts, need to stop JJ from going off and creating all the havoc in the paint. Need to do a whole lot better in the next game in Houston. Rockets need to put this team away early on Tuesday.

    Agreed. Mavs got players with rings on their team too

    Rockets were down 20 and got it within 9. Rockets need to just play the way the know how to play.

    Was McHale ready to win this game?
    He hadn't done any home work, it was just like last game

    Terrence Jones and Ariza sucked tonight. Jones looks lost on rotations and miss easy layouts. Ariza missed alot of threes and two point shots. Why is he trying to drive with that ugly jumps. I believe that Prigioni and Smith should start. What do you guys think?

    When I saw Harden pass up a wide own midrange in the 3rd to Ariza who bricked his 3 I knew it was over then. That sequence really bothered me

    Nick Johnson played well in limited time, active on both end.

    He deserves more playing time in next game, both Terry and Prig were just horrible.

    These Hack-A-XXXXX strategy really sucks the momentum out of your opponents especially when they are not hitting there FT's....

    Unfortunately, this is what happened to Howard tonight...
