    Dallas is still a good team without Dirk. We just have to watch Kidd, Terry, Howard, and Stackhouse.

    Who cares about the Mavs being at full strength? With the West as tight as it is from top to bottom, every game is important. We need every game we can get to not only secure a good seed in the playoffs, but stay in the playoffs.

    Good, so people shouldn't discount our soon to be 17 winning streak despite of Dirk's absence :)

    Even with Dirk out, the Mavs should still be favored to beat a Yaoless Rockets at Dallas. Hopefully, the Media doesn't play down the win when the Rockets whoop them.

    Hopefully the Rockets do whoop them. Let's NOT get over confident. Dallas is still a tough team without Dirk...maybe even tougher.

    I was kind of hoping a Dallas win would be a statement game, if we made that 17 straight. Now the national media will use Dirk's absence as an excuse.

    Battier said it the best. This isn't American Idol. The opinions of the media are irrelevant when it comes to making the playoffs. A win is a win and we need to take what we can get.

    Not a sure win at all. Actually I'm not as scared of Dirk as I am the Mavs role players that always seem to kill us...

    I love it....Dirk should have thought of the consequences before tossing AK47 to the ground.

    The Rockets should be favored now.....

    Somehow this lineup reminds me of the movie space cowboy.
