Looking forward to seeing Green in this one.
Why he plays so little the last few games?

It should be another great game, I will be attending this game as well tonight. The Rockets need to win on their home court.

T-Mac is questionable for tonights game after re-agrivating his injured knee at the start of the 2nd half against the Thunder. I really hope he plays tonight.

Yao & Artest both hurt their ankles last game as well but both are suppose to play tonight.

LETS GO ROCKETS !!!

I hope T-mac plays. I want to see a full strength Dallas vs full strength Rockets game

This will be a good game. If Dirk and Josh play like they did vs. Houston in the season opener we EASILY got the edge on the forward positions. Kidd needs to be the Kidd we are use to seeing..The reason i think we lost to Houston the 1st time is Bass Terry and Dampier SUCKED!! But if 2 of the 3 play well, we WILL win.

Im anxiois to see how well we play against Houston now that Stackhouse in inactive. It should be a good game. If any of the Rockets big 3 sit tonight, I think the Mavs will win

The Rockets fourth quarter defense on Dirk & Howard is the reason we won imo. They were completely shut down.

Axxording to ESPN radio 103.3, Yao is out and T-mac & Artest will both play

Well maybe Terry shouldn't get himself dominated by Aaron Brooks this time..

anyways, call me pessimist, we had wins against average/poor teams. Doubt we win this one. As long as we don't have a 4th quarter collapse though

Well, they play him to start the game and he plays the first 7-8 minutes. He sits out the whole 2nd quarter, and then they play him to start the 2nd half for the first 6-8 minutes then he don't play at all. In these minutes he's is getting minimum touches and limited opportunity with the ball but is finding a way to somehow contribute. They're allegedly taking it step-by-step with Gerald. I don't buy it. I don't see why G isn't getting 25 minutes a night. I mean Terry a great 6th man to have but he doesn't have to play 32+ for the Mavs to be successful. I hope GG has a good game tonight in his hometown. The T Wolves already ate some crow now it's time for the Rockets to taste some.

Josh Howard will not play...ankle like eveyone else.

Time to see if Williams, Green, Singleton and Wright can fill in for him,

GREEN8 · Post #15 » by **GREEN8** » Thu Nov 20, 2008 12:44 am

With Howard out, Green will get more minutes and that means... SHOWTIME!

Green, is that you?

nice start, tmac looks a little slow and his last shot was flat

and where are the fans in houston, there is nobody there

JES12 · Post #18 » by **JES12** » Thu Nov 20, 2008 1:14 am

Kidd-Green-Singleton-Damp beating the Rockets 10-2

Lets hope they can keep it up and maybe Dirk will join in.

Singleton got the step, but he need to finish.

And our defense needs to step it up.
