    the more i see it, the more i feel that DH is not the answer for a championship, at least, shaq is more dominant...

    Asik was huge once he came in in the last few mins.

    Controlled the paint and the boards.

    Love this doofus.

    Maybe Asik should teach Dwight how to shoot FTs.
    Last year OKC gave up on hack an Asik in Playoffs.

    Im so glad Dirk picked up his 5th foul, he was starting to kill us up until that point. And ofc Harden bailed us out big time.

    Howard is a better shot blocker from the weak side but I agree asik is better defending on the ball

    Man, do I have some stories to tell you if you think this is bad. There are some biased hot-headed refs out there that will mess a game up completely.

    Pretty much, not only did he pass up a wide open three but then he blew by his guy and a wide open layup and still passed it back out to the 3 point line.

    ROFL... you are right, I mean Dwight was only a 3 time DPOTY.

    They practically never got him the ball inside in the 3rd Q. What do you want him to do? Shoot 3s?

    DH is just an ultimate garbage man. Nothing more than that.

    That was an ugly 3rd quarter. NBA really needs to punish hack-a-shaq tactic, it's ridiculous

    Rockets need to work on breaking down the zone.

    P.S. Lin...control your tempo, man. Those TO are sloppy plays.

    Dallas's strategy is good.first 2-3zone defense then hack Howard. Can't wait to see post game interview from Mchale.

    Great thing about Asik is he doesn't expect touches.

    I feel like when Dwight wasn't getting touches he stopped attacking the boards. Although I feel for Dwight, they were straight up ignoring him.

    Worst game I've ever watched live, this is just pathetic. The referees have killed this game along with Hack-a-Howard and Rockets unable to beat the zone and passing up open shots..

    My problem with it is it ruins the game as entertainment value.
