    Tried to tell people that his defense wasn't even that much of a problem. He moves his feet really well and is generally very quick. If only he could start getting rebounds like he did in Sacramento then he'd already bring us something we didn't have before.

    This game is a little different from the last games. Lin handling the ball more (Dribbling around inside the paint more often) and different rotation.. (I Beverley got in game like 2 minutes at 1st qrt.)

    Should really rest Harden. Putting too much burden on his knee.

    I've been nonstop complaining about our D, but superb offensive half by Lin, Parson, and DMo. Really, really superb (if there can be such a thing.)

    One of the few games I have seen this year thanks to Uncle Les and Comcast, but a few impressions. Lin may be inconsistent, but he still has the magic. Parsons was a GREAT draft choice. DMo is raw but dripping with potential. Harden hasn't got going. I love Asik. This team is scrappy. I don't know why the Mavs light up against the Rockets, but I have been watching them a lot this year (Fox Sports SW) and though they have many talented players they are largely awful. They look great against the Rockets.

    Lin with 17pts & 7assists at half.

    Over or under: Lin finishes the game with... 17pts & 7assists because he plays 5mins in 2nd half?

    Lin needs more TO. The team wins when he has more TO:grin:

    Does it hurt to be this jaded/cynical on a consistent basis?

    Haha, the more likely explanation would be that he's been sick(flu) and injured(ankle)... But I definitely like the idea he was stressed out at having to meet Parson's parents more.

    Lin has 10 shot attempts already ... What the hell is he thinking? Does he want to lose this very important game?

    Only an idiot wold judge arookie on a new team after two games. TREX will be fine. In a couple of years he will be a top 5 rebounder and probaly the best offensive rebounder in the league.

    Nowitzki, Vinsanity, Marion, Brand, Mike James... I gotta say, the Mavs look like a cinch to win the 2007 title.
