    I hope this Dallas timeout doesn't lead to another 18-4 run . . .

    Roy being compared to Mitch Richmond. Not an apt comparison, IMHO. Richmond had that scorer's mentality. Roy has better handles and likes to involve his teammates more.

    Outlaw doesn't know when to stop shooting, even when he's ice cold.

    Not a bad half. We are playing hard. Dirk can't keep this up.

    Halftime and we're down 55 to 59. We need someone to slow down Dirk as he has scored 24 points in one half. Roy is keeping us close with 15 points, but we need someone to step up defensively on Dirk and someone to help Roy carry some of that offensive load.

    Some day, some how, I just know there's going to come a day when this team actually plays good perimeter defense. Perchance to dream

    Can't is not the word you're looking for. "Probably not", sure, but definitely not "can't."

    How do you defend a 7 footer taking fall away jumpers when he's on?

    Gerald Wallace plays good perimeter d, right? Sorry for bringing him up all the time, but they really need a defender like him.

    One bright spot:

    Greg Oden isn't embarrassing himself or the team on national TV.

    I'd even go so far to say he looks modestly "good"
