    Dmo is a keeper, dont trade him just for dumping Asik or Lin

    -DMo's best game. It couldn't have come at a better time.
    -Lin had a great game offensively and defensively. How many times did we see him guard Dirk tonight. WTF? Dirk was missing when Lin was on him too. LOL
    -We held their starting backcourt to 5-22 shooting.
    -Bev played with great effort and was knocking down some shots from 3 and was in foul trouble end of game.
    -Brooks, despite some dumb plays, provided much needed offensive spark off the bench and was a positive most of the game.
    -Dwight letting the league know that hacks are going to be freebies for the Rox
    -Parsons with a decent game, but was in foul trouble.

    Everyone played with effort today. Great win vs Mavs today.

    I'm happy with the win. Yes, we committed some bone headed fouls at the end, but maybe they can learn from it.

    Carlisle nearly pulled a victory out of thin air. He would not foul any good FT shooters even when behind by more than 1 possession and Houstonkind of panicked on defense and started hacking away at Dallas' shooters. Dirk should've gone to the line for 3 FTs on his air ball. He was hacked. I don't know what McHale was thinking when he had the ball inbounded into the back court. That was the one situation where Dallas had to foul.

    Dmo = Dirk killer.

    Oh and Beverly...I think he managed to out do Lin Turnovers more than Lin ever has. Dude was straight up BONEHEAD tonight.

    How does McHale control fouling the 3-point shooter. That's all player mistakes.

    the late meltdowns continue - we don't handle pressure defense of any type well. when they attack the perimeter - i am just wondering why they didn't do that earlier.

    Don't forget Sacramento giving memphis lots of work. Hope they win as well.

    Yeah, I agree with this. We wouldn't have to see Casspi or Garcia playing the PF spot ever.

    If San Antonio loses tonight, we are within 3 games behind them with the series edge on them. I think we can catch them, especially with Ginobili out for 3-4 weeks. Hopefully we get our player back and healthy for a March-April push!
