    Dampier will not be allowed to mug Yao like he usually does. Dirk will have to actually earn his freethrows. Hopefully JJ will be back. We win regardless.

    "Dec 10 After crashing to the floor on an undercut by Sonics' guard Luke Ridnour on a rebound in the third quarter, Mavs forward Dirk Nowitzki stayed in the game and finished with 27 points, seven rebounds, and two blocks. According to the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, Nowitzki suffered a lower back contusion.

    Views: Apparently, the back injury was not nearly as bad as it looked. We'll let you know how he responds over the weekend. "

    from Yahoo Fantasy News and Notes.

    So seriously we can now look at the chance that Dirk is NOT playing the game, or at least not as many minutes as he typically does.

    I can smell it now, rockets get back to the .500. And from there we sill continue to win if not we can always fire the coach! right!

    But first they have to stop Dirk.


    :) :p :confused: :( :eek: :mad: :eek: :cool:

    It is said that he could've taken it off last game. But since he got the injury from Nesho, he kept it on for one more game.

    Hopefully his shooting touch will come back to him.

    It's a danger game. Rox are coming off a high and the Mavs will be hurting from their recent losses. Dirk & Co. will be coming out angry (anger = energy).

    Expect another games where TMac and Yao carry the team. Sura and Andre Barret step up big time offensively. They will score bunch of three pointers and convert a lot of good looks.

    We got to slow down the tempo playing against Mavs, and lock down defensively, MoT and Howard would need to harrasse Nortwizsky constantly.

    If we can get Mavs to stay under 100, we are going to win. Unless TMac and Yao go off again and both combines for 70 points or more.

    Rox 96
    Mavs 92

    I heard Nellie on the radio say that Dirk will be a game time decision with a sore tailbone. He didn't practice Friday. Looks like the rematch might not materialize after all.

    Dirk dies from a sexually transmitted disease from making pornographic films under the alias of "Diggler" and Houston goes on a 40-3 run in the second quarter.

    Houston 134
    Dallas 102

    If that Thursday TMac show could repeat 4 times in a row with all Mavs players in awe and could not score, a 52-0 run would be possible in 140 seconds!
