    It is good for Rox to keep Yao on bench as long as possible.

    Alright, here is the promised Dallas run.

    Hold on guys, don't let this one slip

    We HAVE to make our damn shots, Yao needs to keep his ass on the court, otherwise they are going to be tripling Mac out there.

    Guards, make your shots please!

    Great point. We're up double digits, and Yao could be playing his 20th minute in the 4th quarter.

    Damn.

    This half can't end any earlier! Let's stop the bleeding guys for the next 40 seconds.

    Dallas is DEFINITELY missing shots they normally don't. A lot of it is due to our defense, but a lot of it has to do with them bricking their shots.

    GREAT! Dirks' 3rd personal:D

    Am I the only one who thinks Van Horn looks like a sissy?

    Damn, I would've liked to see a 14 point lead at the half. But I'll take this score in Big D.

    And Yao's got plenty of rest ...

    Again, Yao hesitated too much when he got the ball.

    He can afford to be one, he simply is a jump shooter. You don't need toughness for that.

    I know that ESPN guy said Houston with a "substantial lead", but that is nothing if we don't follow it with a 2nd half as good as the 1st one.

    Yao, come one man, PLEASE keep your butt on the floor. It is time to shine Yao, time to shine baby:cool:

    I bet Avery is real glad he put Dirk in for the last 42 seconds now. They didn't close the lead, and he picked up a foul. Good stuff.

    In the second half, if T-Mac's firy pace keeps up, Yao gets into it, and the D continues, the Mavbricks won't come close.

    who would have thought when Mcgrady said he was coming to Houston to play with a real center, it was Mutumbo all along.

    All the praise by the Abc broadcasters for Mutumbo is rightiously deserved, no way you can knock this guys heart and determination.

    Why it is the all our runs come from when mutumbo is in?
    Time to stop being the biggest cheerleader on the bench and talk the talk but also walk the walk.

    At this rate, dampier maybe right in a kind of ironic way that he is the Best center in the WC (behind Mutumbo of course).
