    love greens itchy trigger on shooting 3's but i also feel like he's wasting that athleticism on just being a shooter.

    would love to see him put the ball on the floor and get to the rim.

    Disappointing win which is usually a contradiction in terms. The Mavs were aggressive, they drove to the rim again and again. They hustled, they rebounded, they moved the ball. I almost started cheering for them which is inconceivable. I did like their hustle. The Rockets largely stunk. Tonight they were not a team that is even in the same league as the Warriors. They play this way in the post-season and they will be done in the first round. Not going to happen? Well, the "killer instinct" isn't turned on and off, you either have it or you don't. I didn't see it tonight.

    Yeah, well the Warriors aren't in the Warriors league that you have built inside your mind. They're good, but they're not as good as we are. Poor execution happens, but good teams find a way to win. We won. We're good. The Mavs are terrible but with a solid basketball coach. It happens.

    Rockets 2 - Warriors 1

    Rockets with Harden 2 - Warriors against Harden 0

    Have you not seen the Worriers getting destroyed by bottom feeding teams like the Nuggets and Jazz? Hell, the Jazz are not even top 8 seeded team yet they destroyed the Worriers by 30 points. I hope we're not at the worriers level, after all they can't turn on and off the killer instinct as you said lol. If our worst is a lazy 7 point win over the crap mavs, I'll take it.

    I could care less how well coached and how much hunger/ hustle the mavs, nugs and Jazz have - you are what your record says you are.

    Not realistic for Rox to play a perfect blowout win vs everyone.

    So you are assuming that taking the 'corpse' of Dirk Nowitzki out of the lineup is a negative for them?
    Unfortunately, he's no longer effective. Replacing him with a much younger player makes them more athletic

    teams are going to bring their absolute best when they play a team like the Rockets. Rockets know this and will adjust to it during the game.

    Is it me or do you prefer watching the Rockets play on the road? Can't quite put my finger on it... Our records home and away are almost the same.

    "I almost started cheering for them which is inconceivable"? Yes I agree that it's "inconceivable" that a Rocket fan could EVER think about "cheering for the Mavs" ESPECIALLY when they're playing the Rockets. No matter how bad the Rockets are playing!!

    The screaming moron with the mask driving around crack infested downtown Dallas still alive? Would have he had a stroke by now with the way his ponies are struggling ?

    I like your post, but I would never even think about cheering for the Mavs. We have to work hard. Go Houston Rockets!
