    However we did not have Scola or Lowry back then.

    I still remember that series like it was yesterday. It was absolutely brutal what happened to Houston. Going up 2-0 by winning both games in Dallas and then losing 3 in a row and getting blown out by the largest margin in game 7 history. It was a monumental choke job aided by some absolutely terrible officiating. It would be great to exact some revenge and humiliate the Mavs this time around.

    I think we will. Reason: James Harden.

    Personally, I felt like our 2 stars back then were good enough- but our other players just absolutely sucked- especially in that last game. This time, you've got guys who can at LEAST give you more than 8 points per game.

    I was at both games in Houston that year. Watching Terry destroy us haunts me. The horrible refs haunt me. Finley out of bounds Haunt me.

    Listening to Dallas fans to this day talk about it kills me.

    Other than that I'm okay and have moved on.
