    Might as well make it a poll and see what the majority thinks.

    I think the Rockets are good enough to beat anyone. I think we might as well take on the best team.

    Edit: But I'm more worried about Utah than either Golden State or Dallas.

    I would rather face Dallas, NOT because I am scared of Golden State but becuase I want to exact our vengence upon them and demoralize those soft @ss punks.

    I like our chances better against a cocky golden state instead of a Dallas team that is just playing to win.

    GS are not really as good as people make them out to be! Dallas just have match up problems with them just like how Rockets have problems with Hornets. GS are very confident playing against Dallas but thats about it! Hornets are very confident playing against us because they have won so many games against us! now GS are not the usual 8 seed team, They are good unlike lakers but they are NOT Dallas!!

    Golden State of course. Mavs is a more talented team and has the home court advantage over rockets. It would be fun if all the top seeds get knocked out in the first round. Then rockets would have HCA in the western conference. ;)

    i think we can beat either team, golden state actually scares me more. my question is what would be most humiliating to the mavs? i dont think we could destroy the mavs by a sufficient margin to erase the memory of that game 7 loss, but watching the warriors take out the mavs in the 1st round might do just that.

    No, the champ is always the best. Who cares how you became the champ? Would someone put an footnote on this season if rockets won the championship without going throw Mavs and the Suns?

    If the rockets are to be the best, they have to beat the best. Dallas all the way.

    Do I want revenge on Phallas? Yes. Would I loose sleep if they got humiliated by the 8th seed? Hell no.

    Neither team scare me as I'm sure the Rockets aren't either. I would take both of them at the same time. 5 on 10.

    I am sure someone already brought up the fact our first championship just happend to occur the same year as a dramatic 8 knocks off 1 (granted that was a best of 5)...so I took into account that would be good karma in our favor...

    but still...the thought of knocking off dallas personally seems much more gratifying...

    my vote: DALLAS
