Everything was good except for that 3rd qtr collapse. I still think Yao is playing too many minutes to stay healthy for the season. Yao should be staying about 34-36 min a game.
lol at mavericks sucking but i still root for them

Did you catch the office tonight? I'm about to download it.
^ its gonna be along season. i think the rockets spurs and hornets are all ahead of the mavs
one of those 3 + lakers will be West champ. suns are ok but Shaq can't keep this up for an entire season.
Artest and the Rockets looked good. Their depth is going to give teams fits. TMac was nothing more than a cheerleader down the stretch and they owned the Mavs anyway. If the Rockets are healthy going into the playoffs and they stay healthy throughout they will be your '08-'09 NBA Champions.
Rockets needed a Jordanesque game from Brooks and a Larry Bird lilke shooting performance from Artest in order to beat the mavs. Having said that I hope a ceiling fan falls on Ron Artest while he sleeps.
Lakers>hornets>rox,jazz>Spurs>suns>>>>>mavs.
o how the might have fallen
No.
Give me a healthy Spurs team over the Rockets any day of the week. And there is no way this team beats the Lakers in a seven game series.
the rockets are gonna be tough this year.
at least until tmac gets an ingrown toenail and yao jams his pinky and they each miss 30 games over it.
maybe artest can inject some much lacked toughness into that team.
then again i doubt it, this was against the mavs after all.
even though i did cuss tmac out during this game, he is injured and he alone can win us 55 games so i understand why coach was giving him rest.
It was also smart on adelman b.c that artest,brooks,yao,barry,chuck unit was manhandling the mavs every time they were in. Tmac + battier usually mesh well so we will see more of that when they come back
Well, the same was needed from the Mavs. Dirk and Howard had to go off in order for the Mavs to win, because you had no bench.
in a head to head matchup the rockets were already better than the lakers.
Overall the Lakers are the better team though.
Have you still forgotten that ass rape on the 22nd win by tmac + scrubs?
The Lakers don't do well against good defensive teams, just wait till Shane comes back
Then again, your team can probably beat any team in the NBA with the exception of the rockets and celtics head 2 head
Hornets aren't going anywhere this year.
Without a REAL backup to Chandler, they're screwed.
Backups to Chandler: Hilton Armstrong, Marvin Ely.
Shaq/Amare killing the Hornets with Chandler out tonight.
i hope thats the case, they are tough divisional rivals
did u miss the first 2 laker games this season?
Mavs sure forgot quickly how to play D. But the Rockets also looked pretty bad defensively.
It's a long season though, and Battier should help with that a bit.
You were saying? What excuse were you talking about
I guess we found out who took the curbstompage
Kindly stfu and let the rockets, lakers, spurs, jazz, NO, and Celtics continue to be relevant while the mavs, well they're the mavs.![]()
You got Artest and are waiting for Battier to come back to start playing D?
I think the Rockets are playoff fodder if they keep allowing 100+ ppg.
Nobody expected them to lose to the blazers or clippers.
Like i said, solid defensive teams.
The lakers don't match up good with the rockets.
The sad part is you took that serious.
Yea thats the ting about artest, i noticed it too. He is an A grade defender but he also gambles.
If you watched all the game i did you would understand, there is something about Battier, he carries this team defensively, as a 6th man he would do wonders.
just like the fakers are 2-0 against teams that did NOT make the playoffs last year
Kobe playing in the 4Q of a blow out![]()
I like the mavs...but i think Cuban is a bag
are you his ing agent? Don't defend his stupidity. Way to back peddle.![]()
