    yeah, winning on the road against a playoff team without our best player shows me that we can't compete :rolleyes:

    I was clutching a pillow like I was going to murder it. And I was about to piss myself. Giving a 45% 3 point shooter 2, TWO, good shots to win the game which we should have won 2 minutes earlier? Like, damn. We need to stop that.

    But I'm thankful the Mavs were trying to win it, Dirk had Lin on the switch and could have easily tied the game.

    They already used up all their luck in their last home game.

    Actually, the Rockets doubled Dirk quickly once Lin got stuck on him so he had to dish it off. Smart move too. Yes it left Calderon wide open, but I'll let him have the 3-point shot rather than hand Dirk an easy opportunity for 2(and possibly a free throw if the refs blew the whistle yet again).

    Like I said, I still don't get it. Wide freaking open, and he missed twice, and we fouled them gazillion times. We were literally trying to give the game away.

    They beat a playoff team and did so without Harden (arguably their best player), and did so on the road on the 2nd night of a back to back.

    I mean, not to say they aren't a trade or two from competing for a title, but this game is not an indicator in that regard in any way shape or form.

    Bad post on your part.

    I was like "clear eyes, full hearts, can't lose". Saw the shot go up and I went "***** we about to lose". When he missed I was like "whew we didn't lose"
