    Mavs shooting the ball well to start. Not a good sign. Padgett follows with an airball. Luckily the Mavs turn the ball over on the next possession.

    Padgett

    Padgett will get Yao fouled out if Van Gundy plays him all night. Another airball as well. The guy is tighter than a drum.

    Houston 2 - 12 to start from the field. Rockets now down 8.

    TMac 1 - 5, Yao 0 - 2.

    JVG needs to sub Sura and Padgett out before the game gets out of hand. They are giving us nothing. :mad:

    Good thing fames aren't decided in the first 5 minutes of the game.

    this is where a big bruising PF would come in handy to lay some hits on Dirk. Yao is always surrounded by 3 mavs when a rebound comes

    The Mavs are driving inside all they want. Apparently they don't fear being blocked by Yao.

    That's one thing Deke does so well, he locks down the interior. If Dallas keeps attacking inside and scoring, Deke will see more minutes. The problem, of course, is that he can't score:(

    Hopefully we will calm down and start making shots.

    We are missing easy shots that we will make once we loosen up.

    Padgett is such a liability on Defense, it is not even funny:rolleyes:

    But then Bowen is such a liability on offense it ain't even funny:rolleyes:

    They are getting rebounds and inside position on Yao.

    Wesley needs to have a big game tonight, we need all the scoring we can get.

    I think we will make a mini run when Barry and MJ come in

    Yao and Wesley with back-to-back three point plays to cut the lead to 2.

    I don't know why, there is no pressure on them. Dallas should be more tense, they are playing at home and are the higher seed.

    The away team should always be the one playing more loose

    Not a good sign if Finley is going to hit his threes. He's got two in this game to this point.

    TMac now 1-7 in the first quarter. Luckily for the Rockets, Dirk is still not shooting well from the outside.

    Mavs outrebounding Houston right now 12 to 6.
