Truckulent Artest Leads Rockets To Victory

The Houston Rockets newest member, Ron Artest is looking like to be a good trade for the franchise.  The Rockets mowed down the home town crowd of Dallas in last nights game with a victory of 112-102.  Artest scored 29 points on 10 for 22 shooting and Yao Ming had 30 points on 11 for 15 shooting.

The game was a wild ride of swings and runs with the Dallas Mavericks having a chance throughout the game for a win.  Dirk Nowitzki had a great season opener with 36 points on 10 for 22 shooting and so did Dwight Howard who dropped 28 points.  This will be another season for Dallas to try and make a run back to the Conference Championships.  To me it just seems like this team don’t have the toughness and determination that is needed for a serious Championship run.
