    About as good of an end to a half as we could have had.... the momentum seemed to be going Dallas' way, with the Howard-Yao mismatch... but we seemed to weather that storm.

    Here's a big key... Dallas won't have anywhere near the energy to start the 3rd that they had to start the game... but we CANNOT let up!

    Keep Bringin the THUNDA!!!

    i don't know if they've reached spurs fans levels yet, but yeah the mavs fans are definitely whining about every call like they aren't getting any respect, even while dirk has gone to the line like 10 times and they went to the line at about a 2 to 1 clip on us in game 1.

    Magic: If Yao plays like this, Houston is going to the finals.

    Chuck: I'd love to get (sth) Dampier (was smoking) when he said that he was the best center in the West.

    Am I hellucinating? The Rockets getting some calls? Mind you, it's not like the refs are screwing the Mavs or anything, but they are actually allowing both teams get away with stuff. Kinda makes you wonder, is there a refs' guild or something? Cuz Avery Johnson needs to keep talkin'.

    Listen to those TNT bandwagoners. Get in line, boys.

    I'll say this about this Rockets team. From in front of my TV set, I've been blowing on the Rockets' sails for a decade now, trying (in the way we silly fans do) to push them along. This is the first time since '95 that I don't feel any need to push. I'm just staring in wonder as they sail away and take the rest of us with them.

    Last year, against LA in the playoffs, I never felt like we made them play their very best.

    Tonight I think we are seeing all Dallas has to offer.

    gotta cut down the turn over for the 2nd half. Those brainless mistakes by Sura almost killed us. We are fortunate still leading by 4. Keep focused, guys, it's 48 mins game. Finger crossed

    Whatever the Rockets did to Yao Ming, keep doing it. I am so proud of the way he is playing. I want him to do this all the time! The Rockets are playing with such intensity! Such Heart! I love it! I'm freakin out!

    I wonder if Barkley's stomach firmed up overnight.
