    I will say that him missing all those ft really seemed to throw him off his game. Got in his head something fierce.

    Doesn't explain us shooting 20% for the 2nd and 3rd quarters though.

    I can make it much simpler for you...

    If the Rockets cared to play defense, they'd have a chance. Sadly, they didn't.

    Just go on a quick 6-0 run. It will be a whole new game by then.

    This game in done. If the rockets don't take care of business in game 5, we are in serious trouble.

    Not if we play the defense of Games 3 & 4. Absolutely pathetic. Yes we still have home court, only need 1 more, but I think it's safe to say Dallas has figured out our defense - go right at the PG or let Monta go downhill at whomever is guarding him.

    Let's see a little fight in the 4th, at least make it competitive.

    If the Rox can't cut it to single digits in 6 minutes it might be time to rest the starters and come back strong in 5

    SMH at the coach potato experts criticizing the message McHale gave during the timeout, what do you want him to say "hey we're doing ok, let's get ready for game 5"?

    Rockets need a loss like this before playing the better teams.

    They need to understand they have to go into every game with the fire they had in the 1st 3.

    They looked lazy from the get go tonight.

    This is why i felt no sympathy towards parsons injury... These dallas fans and their team look at houston as their little b*tch... Now that they cant beat us fair and square in a series they resort to roughhousing on the court

    The Mavs are shooting 45% from 3. The Rockets 9.5%(no, that's not a typo). Obviously that won't happen on Tuesday. But the effort better be there in Game 5. There's no excuse to be outplayed like this.

    McHale can't MAKE these players give effort. BUT, he can damn sure sit them when they don't. There is one that has been sitting for a while. He hasn't been missed. He should catch an early flight back to Houston and practice Ft.

    Houston sports has brought the fans here a lot here a lot of pain. The fact that fans can be even contemplating this is 2005 all over again shows the beating we have taken in sports as a city.

    Games was over early in the 2nd quarter this is worst I have ever seen a team play in the playoffs could not hit 3s or FTs awful D. This is most likely the worst game of the yr for us. If we play decent in the next game we win easy

    Wow this could have given us the advantage of rest in round 2 but no rockets got overconfident and play no defense...now if we lose game 5 we are in trouble..This Dallas team sucks!!! Wait till spurs or clippers play the rockets we might be lucky to win a game
