Yeah, I like your list. If you include Duncan - Dampier isn't even the third best center in the state, let alone league. Texas centers - Duncan - (if you consider him a center) Yao Cookie Monster Dampier
Dallas, Houston like day and night They are joined by I-45 and the NBA's playoff schedule. Dallas and Houston are proof that Texas is a big state with multiple personalities. People like to say Dallas isn't Texas, but it is. It's the Texas that cares about glitz and business and culture – and winning. Especially winning. Think of the personalities behind the major sports in the metropolitan area – Jerry Jones and Mark Cuban, Tom Hicks and Eddie Gossage. Understated doesn't come to mind. Houston is Dallas' geographic opposite, defined by the Gulf of Mexico and its natural resources: oil and gas. History says Houston is less demanding of its teams. The Astros are still waiting for their first World Series berth. The Oilers never reached a Super Bowl. The Rockets won two NBA titles, but only because Michael Jordan was trying to hit a curve ball. The closest thing Houston had to a dynasty was the Comets of the WNBA. Now the cities will meet again, when the Mavericks face the Rockets in a first-round series that begins today. I dont know if anyone else saw this but even this article comes off cocky. The astros have been in the playoffs 5 out of the last 8 years i think, i cant remember when the rangers made it last. and the writer "forgot" to mention we were one win away from the ws last year. and i dont wanna get started on the mj/houson ordeal. and wasnt it the cowboys who lost to the expansion texans in their inaugural game. Yes it was, this article is a joke
