Didn't Penny Hardaway injure his thumb or hand in the game? The Suns were never really that great. Just like us. But we could have swept them. I like whatever has happened to the Suns. Hopefully it can continue.
The main thing here is just to get into the playoffs like these last few posts in this thread had said and get some experience. The playoffs is a different animal than the regular season. The Mavs had beaten the Kings 3 of 4 and then lost to the Kings in 5 games in the 2nd round of the playoffs. The Mavs really hadn't proven that they could do any damage beyond the first round of the playoffs, and what they could do this year might be different. They're just as likely to suffer an upset in the second round (first if they meet the Lakers) I'm starting to become more and more impressed with this Rockets' team as time goes along. They FINALLY beat a team soundly like they should and I'm also starting to like Larry Smith a little better as well. He had the patience of letting Yao Ming described a play out, and it worked and I think he's letting the players run more freely on the court and giving the right players more time. He just needed some time. Let's take care of business tomorrow night and Thursday if we can. If we win against the Lakers tomorrow and somehow they lose tonight, then we'd only be just a game behind with the tiebreaker. We'd also have an easier schedule having played all the top four teams in the west, the top few teams in the east, while the Lakers still have 2 against the MAVS, and one against the KINGS.
