    Ah, so you're saying the suspension will be 10-15 games?

    Dwight is suspended for the 1st game because of his tech in game 5 vs GSW.

    Our starting lineup vs Denver will likely be:

    Beverley
    Harden
    Ariza
    TJones
    DMo

    That should be good enough to beat Denver.

    Lol. If your first game of the season is a trap game then you have to be the most unfocused undisciplined team in history.

    Will Dmo even be ready start of season? Won't his minutes be heavily limited coming off of a back surgery?

    Lets start the chuck wagon again!! Lol

    At Denver or at home? Not that it matters. The Rockets sans Dwight and Lawson should win that regardless. They swept a superior Nuggets team last season.

    All indications are that he'll be 100% before the pre-season starts.

    I seriously doubt he won't be suspended. Cyberx claims it's more likely between 10-15 game suspension.

    Dwight Howard was suspended one game

    __________

    So this is gonna be the Joey Dorsey-Nick Johnson(if that) reunion game? :p

    No Lawson, no Prigioni, probably no Papanikolaou.

    And 10-15 games? :eek: DUI is no joking matter but that seems high.

    If it is that's rough. 12-18% of our season.

    With Dwight not playing, the rookie bigs should get a lot of play.
