What can we take away from Game 5? You know, I'm not even mad anymore. I'm all out of "being pissed off" after games 3 and 4. The Rockets shouldn't have put themselves in a position to lose that game. We have to play THAT much better with us being at a 5 vs 7 disadvantage all the time. This is also weakening my love the NBA marginally. This is not even a competition to see who the better basketball team is anymore. It is the referees controlling the series seemingly making the team "the man" wants to win the series...well, win the series. I'm not usually into NBA conspiracies but everyone can smell the fishy **** going on here. And now everyone can see it. If we lose this series, I will still FIRMLY believe Houston was the better team because the calls have been 90-95% the Mavericks. Phantom calls, stealing the ball standing at least 1-2 feet out of bounds. 1. Make our free throws. 2. Continue getting the ball inside to Yao Ming. It worked wonders in Game 5. 3. Limit turnovers from difficult/quick passes including cross court passes/passes below Yao's knees. 4. Forget the refs and do our best to play our game. 5. Play with confidence. I say #5 because we are playing 5 vs. 7 out there and still barely losing the games. I firmly believe we are the better team. What can you guys add to the list or just add your own comments.
#7. Bring pitchforks, torches, tar and feathers to game 6 in case the refs decide the game in favor of the Mavs again.
We figured out... that this is a conspiracy, and David Stern is a racist, and Mark Cuban should be the next commissioner since he is already paying the officials.
If I were the Rockets, I would be pissed that I will blow Dallas out by 20 points for the next two games just to take the refs out of the game.
