GAME THREAD: Dallas Mavericks vs. Houston Rockets

WHO: Dallas Mavericks vs. Houston Rockets

WHAT: Another chance to steal one

WHERE: American Airlines Center, Dallas, TX

WHEN: 7:30 p.m. CT

HOW: FSSW or NBA League Pass

THE STORY: The Rockets have been a bit hard up this season so far, having fired coach Kevin McHale since we last saw them, but they've played a tad better of late and are certainly looking to right the ship as quickly as possible. I'm sure they'll be getting up for the Mavericks, as games between these two of late have been as intense as anything. The Mavericks won the first matchup, and this time around will have Parsons available to boot. For Houston, they'll be without Dwight Howard; the Mavs should have the usual suspects out there (minus J.J. Barea) on the usual minutes restrictions.

Should be a good one. I will be missing the first half due to an appointment with my massage therapist important after-work obligation, so don't feed the trolls and I'll check in when I get back.

Go Mavs!
