    I'm sure Dwight would be in there if he had fractured eye socket... it's different when your knee or other mechanical joint is hurt.

    We were down 2 in the final minute and Dwight looked very despondent/upset going into the huddle. I don't know if that injury is serious or not but he usually inspires and cheers our guys. He was not doing any of that in the 4th quarter. I'm worried about this knee issue. Guess we'll have to wait for an MRI.

    We need a 100% Dwight on the court. Green is dominating the small lineup.

    What the bloody **** are you talking about? Have you ever gotten off your ass enough to have a knee injury? You can't just "play" through it. It literally hurts and stiffens up on every move. You're seriously the dumbest poster on this board if you think he can just come back in and play. For the sake of your own dignity, STFU.

    The injury looked bad , hopefully he can play later on in the series . That's a play that could have easily injured ACL / MCL

    Speak for yourself. Dwight is a ***sy. It took blood clots and fractured eye sockets to keep Dream out and Dream is the player I measure all centers by. You may be okay with a guy who gives it all 50% of the time but I am spoiled to Hakeem and Moses who gave it all every night and it took major injuries to keep them out. Dwight needs to step it up in the WCF. Are you a Dwight fan or a Rockets fan??????

    He doesn't know. He has never actually played basketball beyond one on one with his little sister when he was 10 and she was 6.

    Oh well, Capela will be a better player in the long run so this is good experience.

    Looking at it more closely, looks like he hit him in the back of the knee, not the side, FWIW.

    Looks like Klay stuck his foot out and tripped him.

    big turnaround without a healthy dwight.

    this is a championship team though. we only lost by 4 while missing dwight, dmo, and pat.

    Nah, bad landing by Smith, with his feet crossed. Maybe stepped on Klays foot, too.

    You hate all centers that don't live up to Hakeem's level of play? So you hate all centers? You need to find Jesus.

    We are going to be ok. We played well. Dwight was not playing well before he got hurt? not sure what is going on with him. I hope he is ok man.

    Huh? Dwight was completely owning the paint before he got hurt.
