    Doesnt look good, limping, knee problem?

    Hopefully just ankle

    Dorsey is awful and we don't have very much depth at the 5 so I think they have to call him up.

    Bring BACK CANAAN! Start Dmo at the Center spot.

    About damn time... Time to bring up Capella. Dwight has been hurting this team, his ass needs to rest up and get healthy till playoffs start.

    Let's let him rest for a couple of months. Maybe three months.

    I feel a little guilty that when he went out, I instantly felt better about our offense.

    Sadly there is truth to it. Our offense IS a lot better with Howard out. He needs to take his time and come back 100%, he's been playing really poorly lately and it has been hurting the team.

    And T-Jones will be back soon, so he will be able to get some run with available minutes.
