    Gotta keep the Jet.

    That 3 point shooting is going to come up big in the playoffs.

    And play him what minutes? We're suddenly STACKED with forwards, and he can't really play center. Ariza/Brewer/Smith/DMo/Dwight... no minutes for Jones.

    DMo playing only 15 minutes a game after what he's done would be a damn shame.

    DMo is a center, we look terrible out there with both Howard and DMo on the court.

    It sucks but there'll be plenty of games like tonight where Howard gets in foul trouble and he'll have plenty of minutes.

    Well at least there's a timetable now. Better than having none and wondering if he would even play again for the rest of his career.

    While I would love to see DMo get more minutes, if he can still be effective for 15 to 18 minutes a game backing up Dwight and we win the chip, I don't care about his personal stats. I want our team to win more. While DMo did very good, it's not like he averaged 20 and 10 while Dwight was out.

    That's one crazy ass injury. At least there is a timeline now.

    Unless you are an insider this is not a guarantee.

    The Rockets have done tons of minor, tiny deals at the deadline or even nothing.

    TJones just needs some rest. We should let him go back to his stomping grounds until he feels better.

    I want him back so we can get that trade value up. But Smith and D-Mo are much, much better 2 way players. I don't really want him taking minutes from the 2 of them.

    This is encouraging news. I would be very happy to see him back, and playing for the Houston Rockets. I hope he will keeping on getting better, and become a productive force
    for us.

    I doubt Morey trades a player who's value has been severely diminished due to missing most of the season due to some weird injury. If the Rockets could lure Jermaine O'Neil into the fold, however, that would free up D-Mo + NO pick for Dragic. Not saying that's enough, just saying.

    I don't understand all the love for Jones...All I think of is Aldridge making Jones look like a teenage girl in the play offs
