Rockets 2-0
Mavericks 0-2

Rookie sensation Dennis Smith will miss the game for Dallas with a left knee contusion.
Harden is still a work-in-progress. He can score, but he can't help his teammate that much - Yao Ming

Home debut, 2-0 with a quality win over the champs on the road.

So far, so good! I’m glad that they’re taking precautions with CP3, but I am looking forward to getting him in the lineup.

Let’s hope for health, Harden not playing many minutes & a Rockets win.

Noel vs Capela is interesting. Both will be free agents next summer and have similar skill sets and size.

Amazing how far Dallas has fallen. Barnes - Matthews gotta be the worst duo in the league.

Noel will probably get a better deal and get his early. He's going to be unrestricted, which is good for us keeping Capela on a reasonable deal

It's way early but I like the potential of this Qi - Capela lineup.
Ridiculous size and versatility defensively.

Rockets garbage time unit ruined a 30 point win. I'm furious.

It's noticeable that Joe Chee needs to work on some hand or arm strength. A few times he grabbed the rebound, but the opposing player knocked the ball out of his hands. I really want to see more playing time for him....not garbage time, but some more real time if Ryan isn't having a good shooting night.
