    We're 13-32 in the lane. That is the worst stat I've heard in a long time. Pick it up.

    a not so good team is up by two despite having a horrible shooting first half. the other team thats good cant get much more than a 2pt lead despite the horrible play of that other not so good team. just sayin

    I don't like his dislike of Houston. But make no mistake....he was a man's man when he played. Chandler would be picking his teeth of the floor if that was Barkley...ditto Garnet on the cheap stuff against Howard. He could come from behimd the booth and outplay eveything not named Howard. Jus saying.

    Really good commentating crew on TNT.

    They are calling out Dallas flops and also the fouls they are getting away with.

    Halftime show the crew just dogged Dallas and rightfully so.

    Dallas game plan:

    Flop when Harden has the ball.
    Flop when Dwight has the ball.
    Hack a whoever.

    Really hope the Rockets start hitting some shots and bury this team. We were up 5 after 2 in GM 1.

    We need to pull away. We can't keep this close at any cost.

    Yeah if they keep shooting like that it will be an issue. That's all the Mavs have to bank on is Rox missing a bunch of shots because they are really not stopping the Rox.

    Playoff nerves? Capela I understand but Jones too? Howard is obviously a bit rusty. If they make those layups we're up 10. Need to clean that up fellas.

    Ariza, Smith, Jones and Howard have to hit something. If Mavs are really going to try to stick Dirk on Jones and Smith, then they have to attack him off the dribble and finish strong like Smith did on his dunk. None of this weak lay-up crap.

    The first 5 minutes of this half will tell us a lot about how this will end.

    Not feeling too good about this game, the Rockets already came in with a lot of energy in the 1st half & they're still only up 2.

    That's pretty discouraging.

    Hope I'm wrong.

    They've been cutting off our 3 pt shots and we're not finishing near the rim.

    They came out with plenty of energy, but they also came out with plenty of stupidity. So many dumb mistakes. So many missed layups.

    Clean it up and win the game.

    Side note: "New Hero Ball" sucks as a marketing mantra.
