We are in the midst of a 3 game loosing streak and we still remain over .500 and are currently 6th in the west. Dallas is a tough game comming up tonight but it is against a team we match up very well against and we have them at home. To add a little sunshine on the topic we are catching going to Portland while they are not playing good ball at all and then to Sacramento with out CWebb. We catch Portland after a couple of days rest and match up very well with Sacramento with out Webber. Against Dallas: The only advantage that I can see Dallas having is Dirk. I'll take Francis and Mobes over Nash and Finley. As a matter of fact I like Mobes better than Finley by himself. I know that makes me sound like a homer but I live in Dallas and see Finley play a lot and I prefer Mobes. KT is just as good as Juwan this year and there is really no way that Bradley and Eschmeyer are as good as Cato and Willis. Against Portland: The Blazers look almost identical to the Rockets to me when you break them down position by position. Davis and Willis are a wash. Kenny has played just as good if not a little better than Rasheed this year. Patterson and Rice should be a wash (except patterson has been a Rocket killer in the past). Bubba Wells and Mobley could be a wash. Francis should get the advantage over Damon but Stoudamire like Patterson has been a Rocket killer in the past. Against the Kings: Francis gets the nod over Bibby. Mobley gets the nod over Christie. Stoyakovic gets a big nod over Rice unless Glenn finds his shooting touch. Kenny gets the not over Pollard and I also give Willis the nod over Divac. The next three games are pivotal in my oppinion. All games could go either way. We really need to get two of these and Dallas at home needs to be one of them. One last thing to smile about....UTAH SUCKS this year! Yeah baby!
