    Howard without question. Asik can't catch up with dirk. Howard however will do a number on him.

    Asik is guarding Dirk and Howard guarding Bear. Good match ups

    Actually, I don't actually remember so I ask, how did Asik do against Dirk and/or Mavs last season? Did they ever play the Asik/Smith lineup against the Mavs, and if so how did they do?

    Box & 1 this b****.

    Parsons on Dirk, the rest have 2 and 2 coverage. Dwight & Asik low blocks, Harden & Lin up front.

    Against really every team you can run this defense, it's much of what did the Celtics did in 08. Having Garnett/Pierce as your forward tandem certainly helps.

    The thought of Cuban sitting their stewing about what he didn't get is awesome.

    It's been a long time since I've been this excited about a more or less meaningless pre-season game. For some reason, I don't expect it to be close. I don't know if Dwight and Omer will "click," but I have high hopes that they will. Regardless, either we blow out Dallas, or we have one of those bizarre pre-season games where nothing goes right and you hope to quickly forget all about the damn thing.

    Rockets by 15.

    Man, that would be an anomaly.

    So far Dallas in preseason was a constant 92.4 ppg in 5 games
    while the Rockets had 112 per contest.
    We will outgun them if nothing else happens
