all that by the pothead...

Howard goes WAY off… and Rockets still only down 1.
Carlisle is going to blow a fuse the way the Mavs play not a bit of D.

16-0 run!!

Man, I love this team. Artest and Landry bring that nasty attitude, which this team needs SO badly.

If you blinked, you missed the Rockets go from one down, to 14 up. Gotta love that.

yikes

14 point leads disappear quick when you don’t guard anyone.

Nice to see Luther getting no run.

Aaron Brooks

Man, if this kid can develop ANY kind of consistent shot – he could really be something. He’s obviously got a ton of speed, but his vision looks to be improving too.

Not much traffic here huh?

Everyone’s on clutchfans I guess.

They’re not showing the game here in Australia, I’m afraid.

BANG

THREE FROM RON – look at that emotion!

Oh man, this team is going places. Artest is already the emotional leader of this team. Awesome!!!

Most important play of the game for me was after the Yao foul. I actually jumped out of my seat and cheered for Artest when he ran up and defended Yao. That’s the emotion this team has been missing..the leadership the team has been missing. Completely bogus call on the technical though. Reggie nailed that one right on the head.

I totally agree Ron is definitely a Rocket now Heart and Soul!

I was watching this game on a 13 inch TV

No wonder I can’t figure out who is who, except Yao of course.

Ron Artest is a bad mofo

……. and I fucking LOVE it!

Stick it to Dallas! 29 more points for Crazy Pills.

Solid Win

I was a little worried with the sub-par defense the first 3 quarters but they really locked it down when it mattered. And is Artest a beast or what. But really whats up with Scola? He seems to be playing fine but Hayes and Landry seem to be getting the nod latter in the game.

Holy crap......

Are we fucking loaded with depth or what? Consider who wasn’t playing in the 4th quarter when we pulled away…

No T-Mac, no Scola, no Alston, no Battier.

FOUR OF OUR STARTERS LAST YEAR weren’t playing when we pulled away. I am freaking pumped.

Aaron Brooks… are you kidding me? Lets give credit to the Dallas perimeter defense for being absolute crap, but Brooks penetrated AT WILL. Now he just needs to get more consistent with his decision making when he does drive.

Aaron Brooks with a solid contribution of 14 pts, 3 rebs and 5 assists

and I think he is just gonna keep getting better.

Bill Simmons

Yao Ming: 30 points, 13 rebounds on 11-15 FG, 8-8 FT

Hey Bill, tell me how Yao’s ass tastes.
