Dirk on the broadcast tonight!

Rockets advance to the Tournament Quarterfinals with a win tonight. Mavs need to make sure that doesn't happen.

This is a loss. Already the case without Luka and Lively banged up. I will be satisfied tonight if they put up a fight, and the final score is within ten.

Even if mavs lose , i hope they put up a good fight

Hold the Rockets under 120 or fire Midd I reckon.

Why you say without Luka?  He's not on the injury report.

Green starting. Only took 17 games to play the best starting lineup this year. A new Midd record!

Good (and I’m not the biggest Green fan)

DJJ does not have good lateral movement to keep up with the wings and guards the Mavs have been putting him on. He’s better off as the backup 4.

Interesting.  I think DJJ has been our best perimeter defender including on ball defender.  Green has been disappointing this year.  But the second unit does need some size.

Why is this?

It’s his own fault, and we all know it.

I can’t believe how good Lively is.

Is this the smallest lineup of the season? Biggest player is 6'6.

It's a vicious cycle of getting no calls, then complaining. Complaining, then getting no calls. A real chicken and egg scenario.

THJ always torches the Rockets. Kyrie missing every shot though!

Sure, but we all know how to break the cycle, and he seems unwilling to do what’s necessary.

Step 1 is Cuban fully stepping down. The refs have hated us long before Luka got here.

Youre not allowed to play defense in the NBA. Its almost unwatchable.

Its a contact sport when the ball handler has the advantage of dictating direction. How can you stop a ball handler if you cant get in front of him causing contact?

I see these guys playing defense with arms straight in the air and refs are calling fouls.

NBA has work to do. Its becoming unwatchable.

Atrocious end of the half

Could’ve been better.

More Exum please...if Green is hurt then Exum should start the 2nd half. He wants this to be his revenge game against Houston
