    Maybe both can start since Howard doesn't seem to be coming back any sooner than jones?

    Jones, easily. I love dmo but tjones is better and is a better fit next to howard.

    Besides, with howard starting, it means fewer touches for dmo in the post. Let him come scoring off the bench.

    If either the upper or the lower motor neuron is not functioning, the brain cannot send signals to the leg. Don't correct him when he's right.

    I just hope we get to the point where McHale actually gets to make a decision. I don't really care who starts, I just want them both available and healthy.

    Honestly... just bring Dwight off the bench for like 10 games... Get him in game shape and make sure all is well then insert him if its good for the team.

    I think we are about to be very, very good.

    T Jones is just an extra hand on deck at this point/ trade piece.

    Him/our picks/Capela/Johnson for best offer...

    :eek: question is: where have u been? TJones got injured saving a small child from a walrus attack at the San Diego Zoo. Nerve damage to the leg, man. . . . The trainer was fired for failing to follow tusk procedures.

    Pretty sure they said a while back he was able to move normally now, run and stuff, but not near NBA strength, ie the explosiveness wasn't returning. I am fairly certain I remember Bill saying that before a game.

    If TJone's injury is real it's going to hurt his trade value. If he was to come back now, I think he is still here after the trade deadline. People would want to see him play at least 25 games. He is to much of a unknown to be moved, could he even pass a physical? Nerves injuries are scary especially in a quick twitch sport like basketball. I'm starting to think with the emergence of D-Mo that either this might be our team for this season or D-Mo and Patbev may be on the move. I hate to look at it like this because I love what Patbev brings to the team and D-Mo is a young Kevin Mchale/Luis Scola in the making. With that said, what will the Trade-Exception, the NO Pick, D-Mo,and Patbev get you?
