    ~lol~ Anyway the wind blows!
    Agreed!
    Not so much with this, the offense suffers.

    Thanks!

    I get to watch the game, because I get to watch all the Mavs games on Fox Sports SW where I used to watch all the Rocket's games FOR YEARS!!! I live in Eastern Texas. We don't have ComCast in our area, not even an option. So ridiculous for the Rockets to do this to their fans.

    I didn't watch the first game. A 33 points blowout. That is impressive.:p

    If that lineup stays even REMOTELY close to that good, teams will start doing hack-a-dwight every game

    Good news is we can put a monster defensive unit out there against hack-a-Dwight... Beverley, Garcia, Parsons, Dwight, Asik. Good luck scoring against that group.

    lol surely they're not THAT good, still my favorite tho. I suppose there is a benefit to hack a dwight; the sooner they get in the bonus the more free throws for james.

    The free-throw bonus doesn't matter that much for James, 99% of the fouls on him happen on the drive anyway.

    Their backcourt is one, if not, the worst defensively in the league and Dalembert won't stop Dwight or Asik. Plus Dwight's got added fuel from Cuban; Cuban wanted the Lakers to amnesty Kobe and we all know how that turned out

    Monta Ellis is the player to watch tomorrow, coming out of a 32-point performance in their season opener. Besides, Ellis has a habit of torching us. I don't know if Harden is healthy enough to keep up with him, so we might see Brewer in spurts tomorrow.

    Dirk will get his, and while still effective, IMO, he is not the superstar of yesteryear.

    Stop or slow down Ellis, and we should be able to win this game.

    BTW, the line is Rockets by 7.

    I agree with those who want to put Parsons and Casspi on Dirk. Has to be two, because one of them will probably run into foul trouble. If Casspi can handle Dirk the way he worked on McRoberts, the Rockets are all set. I would play DMo, if he gets minutes, when Dirk is not on the floor.

    What do Dirk and McRoberts have in common other than being tall NBA players who shoot a lot from distance?
    Very few players can handle Dirk. If Casspi can make life a bit difficult for Dirk, that would be a plus.
    A lot will depend on the health/availability of Harden and Bev.

    Now is a good time to put P.Bev on monta... Monta is a known hot head... put bev on him and make him loose focus on the game!
