    To win this game, Tracy McGrady has to impose his will in the 4th quarter. It rests on his shoulders.

    both teams near bloody 90 point with one whole quarter left what the hell happened to D in the post season. I don't think we can pull this one out, high scoring game Dallas will always have more firepower, our D and rebounding evaporated. I think Yao is a bit spent, Mcrady hasn't got off yet but it doesn't look good at all.

    I hope Mutumbo comes in and makes some stops and rebounding or game over.

    Do you realize two of Dallas' missed 3's were end of the quarter shots? Otherwise they are 10-12

    When pressed, our ball handling problem in back court emerges. The guys hesitated too much, especially Padgett, passed 2 consecutive 3's. We did not drive enough, 19 times to FT in the first half, but the third quarter. Hopefully, JVG will adjust, I am sure he will.

    Dude, either you are unaware of the stats or you're blind

    McGrady has 23 points (on only 13 shots), 5 rbs, 7 asts, 3 stls, 2 blocks

    I would call that an unbelievable all-around game, especially after he starts to score even more

    His passing was the reason for that 1st half going soo smoothely.

    My only concern is our defense, which is not impressive at all this 2nd half

    There's a difference between bad defense, and the other team hitting every single 3 pointer they take.

    The first game, they uncharicteristically missed all those... today, they've done the near-impossible and made them all.... obviously, in the end, I guess you average out.

    That being said, I'm worried about our rebounding... when you don't rebound, its because of tired legs. We may have spent ourselves a little early in this one... hopefully we'll have enough to pull through.

    The problem is we can't stop their penetration.

    I love your optimism.

    If we can make 2 3's..and osme stops..it'll be a 2 point game.

    But man..we need to score.

    If the Mavs win this game, I say that they got a steal! Especially

    when Dirk isnt up to his game............ AND THEY STILL SCORED

    OVER A 100+....................WTF
