    I am worrying about the officiating in game 7. My impression is that tonight the refs were at least not on Dallas' side. After Deke. went on the court in the 4th quater, he played excellent defense and made quite a few defensive stop, but some of them could be whistled if refs were just a little biased toward Dallas (I wouldn't say the refs were bias toward Rockets :p ).

    I hope Rockets will bring the same intensity into game 7 as today AND Yao bring his A+ game, otherwise Dallas will have a better chance to advance to 2nd round.

    Key is Still Yao

    We need Yao to step up big time in Game 7. Without him, it will be harder to beat the Mavs. We can only count so much on big games from our other players. Yao will be critical.

    :p

    Yes, they played very badly. I am sure he is looking forward to going back to his homeland to vacation there. I would be tired too if I get b**** slapped so badly by the Macster;)

    Yup, it is all up to the referees. If referees call any contact in the paint a foul against Deke, it will be very difficult to beat the Mavs

    I just hope all that “Sura hates Yao” crap gone after this game. Sure, it wasn’t a smart play. But Sura payback the foul for Yao. What a Win. Let’s start another streak.

    GO ROCKETS!!!

    I agree --hopefully this game will be a learning experience for him to calm down and play relaxed...

    I'm sure someone will talk to him about it and he will play loose on Saturday....

    What kind of answer is that? I am GENUINLY asking if someone knows the odds as far as NBA history is concerned. I was NOT implying anything whatsoever! I was honestly wondering if someone knows the odds, because I DON'T have knowledge of how similar series have gone in that past. I want a little assurance right now. That is all.

    It WASN'T a sarcastic comment.

    If someone knows the record of visiting teams in Game 7 (as far as winning-losnig record), please let me know.

    Yao lets me down, Wesley lets me down.

    Everyone else is amazing.

    We will win No. 7.

    if we keep it close to the forth, i like our chances with Dikembe Mutumbo in the middle. All praise grand pa.

    We'll just call Yao "little grasshopper" for now.

    GO ROCKETS ! VAN GUNDY VS VAN GUNDY FINALS !!!!

    Just got back from the game and my buddy (monkeyboi32) said exactly the same thing. Without the refs help, Dirk would not be praised as much as he is. As far as the comparisons to Tmac before the series started...... plz...... Tmac has positioned himself as atleast one of the top 3 players in the league and Dirk has lost all of my respect..........
