    contusions errywhere

    I hope he gets better soon (if the injury is legit and isn't just us sitting him because of an impending trade in ~11 days).

    When will Greg Smith return?

    Good, he has been playing terribly. Only negative is that his trade value continues to plummet...

    seems like Rockets will play either Smith or DMo as backup5 and then trade one of them for draft picks

    What? How/when did this happen? Maybe this explains why he played so unmotivated in the Utah game. Get better soon, Omer!

    I haven't noticed him playing lazy at all. In a number of games recently, I thought he played very well. I'm sorry to hear this, as I think we are going to need him. I hope Greg Smith is ready to play.
