    At this point I think the org is farting in the wind hoping it won't stink. They don't have a clue on how to break this curse of ineptitude.

    Why? Let the man play a bit and get back in form. Dont throw him straight to the wolves.

    Unless we make a trade. Gallinari can be traded from today.

    He still is, but RGV doesn't play till the 4th so KJ and DMo might as well be practicing with the rest of the Rockets.

    Rockets are desperate. Season is on the line, we need anything we can get from D-Mo, mainly because Jones is UNPLAYABLE.

    Jones is injured, his basketball skills are broken.

    So transitions to/from D-League are not like baseball minors where you only have so many times you can "send someone down'? I have no clue how D-League affiliation works.

    Ok now send Dwight down there, oh right... Lol, I was just trying to contribute like some of the other crazies on here, haha.

    Anyway, it'll be nice if he's good to go and this isn't just more bs...

    feel like this could be more about a trade than it is about either of them getting minutes. D Mo himself said he'll need another D-League stint before coming back, and we all know KJ isn't going to get any PT.

    It's based on how many years in the league you have. Without a waiver, DMo couldn't be sent to RGV at all, but it was his idea. As to how many times you can come up and go down, I'm pretty sure that's unlimited.
