coming from the other winless Texas team
Adelman is just not a defensive coach. Scola is still getting silly fouls. And you don't have much size past Yao and him. I think the Rockets are loaded talent-wise, but they have a ton of work to do defensively. The Grizzlies gave them problems last night. Obviously, it's early. They have all year to work on that. But they have to. You can't win in the playoffs giving up so many points.
exactly, they were 2nd last yr in defense b.c of Battier and Deke, once they bring them back there will be a balance
early in the morning at Roxfan going into ting mode already?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
Please. We're missing 5 guys right now.coming from the other winless Texas team
I love them. Mavs uniforms are generic looking.
Nothing surprising about tonight's game. The Rockets are not a great team by any means, but by this point no one should expect Dallas to win more than 44 games this year.
no body expected the lakers to win by 20 and 30 points either.....sure they have artest and battier to throw at kobe but yao is soft and bynum is long enough to bother him on defense. the lakers can counter with kobe and ariza on tmac and artest as well. pau > scola and fisher > skip to my lou. whos gonna match up with lamar? sasha off the bench? brooks looks good but farmar has the edge at this stage in their careers.
if u play tmac artest and battier, whos gonna guard pau? i think its the rockets who cant match up with the lakers
I love my Spurs...and I am not saying we can't beat them..but with all the match up problems we would have with them it would be an extremely tall order. They very big, athletic team that has three legit all-star caliber players.
The Lakers would have similar problems. Gasol is soft big man who would likely be bullied by Landry and Scola. With all those hard-nosed forwards they have I would even go as far as to say that Gasol would almost be useless in a series against the Rockets. This would leave Bynum and Odom to help Kobe shoulder the load...and Kobe would have his own issues because Artest would be hounding him the whole series. I don't see why Laker fans aren't more worried.
the god has spoken.
and wtf they unpink u?
No , I'm sure rox fan is just ing with you.
The Rockets are only going to get better. Tracy got virtually no playing time with the rest of the group during the preseason and Battier still hasn't even practiced. The offense will eventually gel and we will develop chemistry that comes with repe ion. As of right now, the Lakers are still head and shoulders the best team but I think we will come around and push them for that top spot.
pau is soft but scola and landry are way too short. pau tall but what helps is that he is long. plus hes got a much better finese game and a jumper than most 4's in the game.
talk about soft, yao is as soft as they come. bynums length will give him fits.
boozer couldnt handle paus length but garnet did because he is also tall and long
of ing course man
we're missing Battier too
Awesome.Before tipoff, Mavs swingman Jerry Stackhouse addressed the crowd, saying, “It’s gonna be fun, it’s gonna be fast. Put on your seat belts. Let’s do it!” Then Dallas opened the Carlisle era with a 24-second violation
by that logic how the did they lose to Tmac+ 50 year old center + scrubs by double digits last year?
Good game by the Rockets.....I think the Mavs need a little better 2nd unit....maybe replace Stackhouse with Gerald Green.....
Not much to read into an early win, but the Rockets are going to be nasty.
DD
the grizz only scored 70 points.
they played a team trying to push the tempo so of course the score is going to be high. the same a lot of times when we played phoenix. we would give up a lot of points but still win because we can get stops in the 4th. the rockets locked down the mavs in the 4th. they are definitely scary even though their offense has a long way to go.
Artest totally owned the Mavs
Frawsome
STFU, thats not Brooks-air jordan-thats just the game slowing way down for a fast as sop re and you will see more of that consistently.....
Artest and larry bird--what are you smoking--u will see more of that from artest.
face it the mavs are has-beens
Their first official shot attempt was also an airball by Wright btw.
Artest and Yao combined for 60 points !
Those NBA Live commercials are garbage.
