    We should split the first two in Dallas. If we split the next two in Houston, then people, we'll have a game seven almost definately.

    Game 1

    They get a bit overconfident and we steal game 2

    I'll say

    Rockets 97
    Mavericks 100

    I think the Rockets have a better chance at Game 2. That is where Van Gundy strengths come in.

    I like our chances of getting a split on the Dallas homecourt for the first 2 games. If we can steal one game, it'll give us some confidence going back to TC where it'll be rockin'.

    GO GO!!

    We were a JJ 3 away from a 1-0 series lead last year. I like our chances better this year.

    I think the Rockets will win game 1, but I'm not for sure. However, that's irrelevant.

    What I do know is that this series is going 7, and the Rockets are winning game 7.

    Rox in 7...Van Gundy has a knack for pulling out these types of series.

    we must steal game one! 80% of all playoff series are won by the team that wins game one!

    This is going to be a tale of two teams with two big trades: Dallas with thier Nash-less-ness and Houston with our T-Mac-a-Mutombo-Barry-Sura-Wesley-ness!!! Go Rockets!!! BTW, we'll see how the Mavs resond being yelled at by "little genital" Johnson: that technique usually works for about 5 minutes before the team tunes you out. Rox win series 4-2.:)
