    well don't forget that the ROX are also without YAO, we will be unfavored against every team in the top 8 every night.


    how long has Dalls been resting? is it since the last game against the Jazz?

    • Dallas has the best home court record.
    • Dirk is soft. We need him to be on the floor shooting 3/15 but he won't.
    • Cuban buy Refs.
    • Terry= #1 Rockets killer, will get more touch.
    • How can we get rebounds when Dampier is there?
    • TMAC will feel "it is on me" and do everything for the team, then we can expect a 40 point defeat.
    • Kidd can shoot. Rafer can not.

    I'd favor the Mavs tonight too. They're 25-3 at home! Yes the Rockets are a great road team, but that's an incredible record. And they went 3-1 last season without Nowitski, so it's not like they suck without the guy.

    I'm more concerned that it may rain and knock out my satellite signal and I won't get to see the game. :(

    bullet #1: Correct

    bullet #2: don't understand your moronism

    bullet #3: Probably not or they wouldn't have lost to golden state

    bullet #4: True ....very true

    bullet #5: HAHAHHAHAHAHHAHA you make me laugh

    bullet #6: This is a new team and everyone contributes

    bullet #7: Are you serious, Kidd might be the worst shooting PG to make the hall of fame....and he is one of my top 3 fav players.. Alston easily the better shooter

    It means they think the Mavs are deeper than we are, and I dont blame them. Kidd, Terry, Howard, Stackhouse. Those guys are capable of lighting it up anytime, as opposed to the Rockets with T-Mac, Scola.....Landry and then a huge offensive drop off with Head, Battier, Alston, and BJax.

    The Mavs have lost only THREE games at home all year long. Wow! Make that FOUR! The BIG RED MACHINE is rolling into the Metroplex.

    Keys to winnning
    * Don't let Jason Terry go right and shoot a jumper. Don't leave him on the perimeter to shoot a standstill jumper. READ MY LIPS - TO THE LEFT, TO THE LEFT (Rafer/Bobby are you listening)
    * We need to GO BIG when Stackhouse starts posting up Luther. Dallas, Utah, and the Lakers have this down pat. As soon as Luther checks in at the 2, they send in someone to post him up immediately. Then Luther struggles
    * Let Kidd shoot jumpers until his arms fall off
    * Battier on Howard (no juwan) or Stackhouse depending on who's hot
    * Scola, Mandry, and Hayes on Brandon Bass (dude is beast on the boards and likes to dunk on people like Mandry)

    We beat Utah in Utah and nearly beat Boston in Boston without T-Mac.

    Damn man you push a JDM DC2 you should know better than to listen to ESPN predictions. :p

    There are "experts" who predicted the Jazz to win it all. There are "experts" out there who predicted us to miss the playoffs and some who predicted us to win the championship. How can two sports analysts be so divided over one team?

    plus they are going to be mad that Irk got suspended and might actually try to play hard.

    Ah the "we're due!" theory rears its ugly head again. Tell me, if the odds of us losing our next game have increased with each consecutive win, then must'nt our chance to win this game be astronomically low??? I mean, if you flipped a coin 16 times and it came up heads 16 times, then it's gotta come up tails the 17th time because it's due, right??? Bubble has to burst at some point.
