Official Game 6 thread: Dallas @ Houston

[The Crippler]

It's time to nut up and finish this one off.

[Evilmav2]

It's time for the Rockets to say goodnight. We win this one going away, 103-95...

[Quetzalcoatl]

I hope so. Mavs win!!!!, better easily (for my heart [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] )

[chumdawg]

I don't fear a Game Seven. I've talked to people who do, on the basis that TMac might have an out-of-body experience and go off for 40. It stands to reason, however, that if he has such a game left in him we'll see it tonight.

I don't expect the Rockets to lay down that easily. To me this series has played out similarly in a lot of ways to the Mavs/Kings series last year. In that series none of the breaks went our way, and we lost 4-1. In this series the breaks have been more favorable, and we're ahead 3-2. But the breaks have a way of evening out. If we are a better team than Houston, it's not by much.

The Mavs will prove something to me if they win tonight. They won't disappoint me if they don't. This game is Houston's to lose.

That said, I'd still take the Mavs +3 for the money. The Mavs have at least a 40% chance to win outright, and whether they win or lose I expect a close finish.

[southern_sweets]

Close game until the 4th quarter.

Van Gundy goes off and gets ejected.

Dallas wins.

Oh, and I will drink 3 margaritas to celebrate the win...or Cinco de Mayo. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

[ocelot_ark]

Just in case you guys were wondering...come game time, I'll be on my couch and away from the PC. Thus keeping with the previously discovered lucky combination.

[rabbitproof]

Dirk remains unbonkers (this just aint his round) but the SWINGMAN ARMY+JET continues to slaughter the Rox.

Mavs take the lead in the 2nd and never let go.

Dallas 100
Rockets 97

[DubOverdose]

I am doing my last HW assignment until the Fall, just like the Mavs should finish up business with the Rockets again until the Fall.

[Bookit]

How many times will Mike James scream out loud when he drives to the hoop? Over and under is 4. The over sounds like a good bet.

[Bookit]

It doesn't look like this game will be broadcast on Hdnet. Bummer.

[dirk2003]

Mavs will lose this one. Which will guarantee a series loss.

BURN THE HERETIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Phil Helmuth]

dirk2003= lame.

[Catalyst]

Trends......

1. Winner of first quarters of each game so far has won the game.

2. The Rockets have won their matchups on the same day the Astros lose (Since our opening day of Baseball - April 5). So far the Braves are pounding the Stros in ATL right now. Hopefully this trend continues for tonights Rox_Mavs game. Also I hope the Braves pound the Stros on Saturday (assuming the trend hold true).

Good luck everyone.

[chumdawg]

We will find out how good the Mavs are tonight. I'm certain of that. They can put an exclamation mark on their statements the last three games and show that they are championship caliber. Or they can show that they are up and down, like all second-tier teams. The Toyota Center is proving ground tonight.

[cheesestar]

cold start

[cheesestar]

is this the night dirk comes out?

[cheesestar]

foul on yao? does anything think that the fouls on yao could lead to a vangundy ejection?

[Folterkammer]

dirk gets going early! this will be our game!

[DubOverdose]

I HATE TNT! I also hate PP for getting kicked out of the game with a T so that the Pacers got to tie up the game! UGH!

[PepperTheMavsFan41]

They're goin to let Yao get away with Murder tonight.


And it continues Dirk c ant get a call at the rim all series.



Yet we get ALL the calls

[MavsFanFinley]

TNT sucks. I'm tired of our games getting cut off. It's not like those game breaks do a damn bit of good.

And how stupid can Pierce be.

[Folterkammer]

JET!

[endtroducing]

that was a major acting job on Tinsley's part

[chumdawg]

I missed the first five minutes because I thought the game didn't start until the first one ended. And I was busy watching the TRAVASHAMOCKERY that was the end of regulation in the other game.

So, please fill me in. How is Damp still in the game. How were the first five minutes?

[Bookit]

Yao is getting away with murder. Rediculous.

[endtroducing]

it doesn't

[PepperTheMavsFan41]

Dirk and Jet have come to play tonight.

[Mavs_fun_fan]

Man I hate TNT, who are the refs?

[dude1394]

Dirk seems to have incorporated the pump fake tonight, very good...

[Bookit]

Damn, we have to look a Barry's mug. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img]

[cheesestar]

gosh i never want to see barrys hideous face on gamechannel ever again

[chumdawg]

Defensive rotations have looked strong tonight.

[Folterkammer]

why did he take damp out of the game?

[endtroducing]

keep him out of trouble at the end of the period

[chumdawg]

I think Josh could average 20 in this league if he were allowed to play like, say, Jamison on offense. His jumper is really not bad.

And tell me, where is Stack's sharpshooting coming from in this series? Who knew?

[cheesestar]

tmac doing what he wishes out there

[PepperTheMavsFan41]

Boy Yao has learned to bitch about every call.


He should have 4.

[endtroducing]

and Yao has 2 fouls

[cheesestar]

things that make me happy:
cake
candy
when yao picks up a foul
