    Oh and the NBA put Joey Crawford on game one and Ken Mauer on game two! They're doing their best to stretch this to seven!

    You don't know that at all. Ken Mauer is gutter trash.

    I am in that same predicament. I don't like watching games with people, not since I invited everyone over in high school to watch game 7 of the Mavs/Rockets series in '05...

    Solitude or Brew Exchange -- can't decide, can't decide, brain aneurism!

    He's trash. But I still prefer him over Joey Crawford or Tony Brothers.

    Still? I'd figure we'd know if they are playing by now. Game time decisions most likely

    Carlisle was quoted as saying they'd be gametime decisions(at least Parsons will be). I still think Parsons plays. If they go down 2-0, they're gonna have a tough time winning this series.

    I don't expect rondo to make so many jumpers in game 2. It's important that Terrence Jones plays well again. He put a lot of pressure on Dallas bigs. Hopefully Capela will continue to contribute and develop right in front of our eyes. I think we win game 2. We just can't get rattled. I love the veteran leadership Jason Terry provides.

    As always, defense is the foundation of success for this team. Rebounding. Hustle plays for loose balls. That and limit turnovers. Josh Smith made a number of bad passes last game. His scoring was also a bit lackluster. Big men should shoot at least 50% from the FT line.

    If the Rockets can play solid and win tonight, I think they win 1 in Dallas, too. It's hard to imagine that they sweep, unless Parsons and Harris have continued nagging problems.

    But first things first. Win game 2. The players know what to do, it's just a matter of doing it.

    They will play. I would be shocked if at least CP25 didn't play. He will get minutes, maybe not good one, but minutes nonetheless.

    Need to win this game; to beat us, the Mavs will have to win 4 out of the next 5 against us

    If they are hobbled, I want them to play. That should help us. With CP's flat-a$$ jumpshot, he'll struggle to shoot if he's getting no lift from his legs.

    Parsons on a bad knee is cool with me, i think it hurts them more

    The Rockets should win whether he plays or not. But I agree that a hobbled Parsons while better than Jefferson or Villaneuva is going to be a problem for the Mavs.

    Do not care this much, the rockets would play better in this game since Howard should not have a foul trouble again. The TNT dudes, what are you going to say if the Rockets win this game again? I know they will keep talking if the rockets lose this game.

    Wasn't Ken Mauer a part of some of the games that had late game missed calls and uneven foul calls?

    I remember he was a part of the Bulls game that we had like 5 free throws in and the Memphis game that Harden was obviously hacked by Zach Randolph. I know he was refereeing another game that we got "the short end of the stick" of, too.

    NBA trying to swing this series!! Thanks in advanced, Cuban...
