Grr. I just want everyone healthy by playoffs. That should happen, right? Everyone's timetable is to return within the next week or so. Just praying that it actually happens.
Much like Beverley and Papanikolaou, Jones 7-10 days away. <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p>Terrence Jones is still in pain and is probably another week away from returning.</p>— Calvin Watkins (@calvinwatkins) <a href="https://twitter.com/calvinwatkins/status/581587535618412544">March 27, 2015</a></blockquote> <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Well if everyone is a week or so away, I guess we'll have them all back(except for maybe Bev) when we visit OKC.
I hate...hate...the fact that we're missing key players, but this is also an opportunity to see how well this team can play when forced to mix up our rotations.
I am unhappy about this development. D-Mo had a good all round game against a good front line. We need everyone back to full health soon.
Jesus, DMo out for the road trip too?! How would they know that already? And Terrence out another week? We've had terrible luck this season.
Probably in garbage minutes if we have a big lead. I am surprised how can he be deemed fit with his degenerative groin status. The kid can be at risk for a big injury in the NBA, unlike the D-League where he is one of the bigger guys on the court.
I hope this is just precautionary. It's starting to remind me of the beginning of the season when the Rockets were seemingly losing a player every game. We've now lost T-Jones against Denver, Smith hurt his ankle against Phoenix, we lost Bev(possibly for the season) against Indiana, and lost D-Mo against New Orleans. Just pray tonight is the end of that streak. The silver lining is that T-Jones and Papa are expected back in 7-10 days. And D-Mo will hopefully be back right after that. That means will have them all in uniform for the last 4 games of the season. The key is somehow surviving over the next 7.
Honestly buddy, YES, it is time to throw him and Nick into the fire, you gotta see what they can do in real-game action.
