Along with being an avid follower of the Dallas Cowboys I also love me some Mavericks. So in the spirit of basketball season I see this as a perfect opportunity to write a piece on the Mavs. Unfortunately for me living in Houston all I get to hear about is the Rockets though it could be worse and I could live in N.Y. and have to suffer through watching and hearing about the worst team ever assembled.
Our friends over at The Dreamshake have a wonderful site dedicated to the Rockets (a must read), but I – being the smartass that I am – try to seize any and all opportunities to talk a little shit when I can but only in good nature. Well here in Houston its all Yao all the time except in those rare occasions when T-Mac plays (which he has played in two in a row now).
The Mavs and Rockets are very similar in a couple of ways, each teams most notable player are from another country ( Yao Ming, Dirk Dirk) and they both have dominant centers. Yes that’s right I said it Dominant centers! People can say what they want about who the leader of the Mavs is but I am here to tell you the undeniable Leader of this Mavs team is none other than Eric ” The best in the west” Dampier! I can here you now Lee & Dave (authors of The Dreamshake ) you think I am crazy right!! Well it just so happens I have Video proof of how much greater a player Damp is compared to Yao!
Yao does not have nothing on that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Life will be so much easier when you learn to accept that no matter how good the Cowboys or Mavericks are in the regular season – they will choke in the playoffs. 😉
The Rockets are the cowboys of the NBA…what have they done since clutch city…i hate saying that since i bleed silver and blue
Sadly that’s probably an apt comparison right now… But Eric Dampier sucks, he sucks almost as much as OU
