Dallas @ New Orleans Portland @ Denver Huge games for the Rockets here... I'm going for Dallas since they are behind us in the loss column and New Orleans in front of us... Both Portland and Denver are ahead of us in the loss column, so I don't really mind the game.
come on Dallas and ? who should i root for? Portland? Denver? maybe portland because that could start to blow up Denver and Melo.
Both home teams will take care of business. A Portland win would be one of their biggest of the season, but it won't happen. They aren't ready to win games like this. Mavs actually have a decent chance if they play with energy.
I'll never root for the mavs unless they're playing the jazz. I don't care if a mavs win is the difference between us making the playoffs and the lottery, I'd rather miss it than see them win a game.
Go Mavericks. They are easier in the playoffs than the Hornets anyways. I'm rooting for the Blazers on that one. I like the Nuggets, but I prefer the Blazers winning. I really don't know why.
Blazers and Mavs should win, keeps the distance between us and hornets a bit and we would move into 4th and Blazers into 3rd place; Denver would be 5th
You're acting like a typical longtime, fatalistic Nuggets fan (can't blame you ). Portland is too schizo and the bad "defense-less" Blazers will show up tonight on the road. Chauncey and Melo combine for 55 points. The one and only way the Blazers have a chance is for Roy Wonder to take over the game. I don't think that happens 2 nights in a row.
Looking at the game so far, Hornets look like they are easily going to win this game. Even though this game is close so far. Mavericks have absolutely no answer for Chris Paul. Just like last year in the playoffs, Chris Paul is just destroying them. Kidd cannot guard him at all.
Chris Paul just threw up 2 consecutive lob alley-oops... Kidd and the Mavs try 2 right after that and fail miserably. Dallas sucks.
Sigh... I guess we will have to beat New Orleans.. We usually own them anyways. Paul can't stay with Brooks... and Brooks doesn't really need heavy defense against Paul.. Yao owns chandler.. etc.. we are better at every position except SG. Paul >>>>>> Brooks Butler <<<< Artest Stojakovic <<< Battier West < Scola (IMO Scola is better, west may be better on offense but Scola will own him in this match up) Chandler <<<<<<< Yao We win.
