Quoteboard for Rockets 118, Mavericks 108: "They traded me for a bag of chips"

Dallas dropped Game 1 to Houston. Here's what the players said.

On Ellis and Parsons not getting it going: "We've got to quite turning the ball over, that's the first thing that we have to do. 17 turnovers for 23 points just sets the table for them in transition. Finishes, threes, all that stuff. It's just too big a cushion for them, and if we can preserve the ball, and get a few more stops and rebounds, you know those guys will get better looks. So a lot of it starts with our defense. We had a lot of good shots that didn't go in.
