Papa "sprained ankle" has taken a millennium for him to get over as well. These Rox injuries this season are just baffling.
I don't give a **** about none of these twitter media jerks. DMO better be on that ****ing on court soon. I've waited 10 ****ing days, WE need that post presence on the team.
Dallas fans are salivating now. **** man. Is there a chance he can play? Even limited minutes? K-Pap is going to have to step in as a stretch 4. Smoove needs to work on the low post game.
This is a very tough loss and it will hurt us but I'm surprised at the intensity of the response. We've been playing great without D-Mo. I think the Beverley loss hits us harder. But when you consider all of our injuries this year, when you consider who *could* be out, I think you have to appreciate having the healthy players we do. With Howard, Smith, and Jones, we're stacked at the big spots and we can add Papa and Dorsey in spot minutes. This is hard news but it doesn't affect my enthusiasm or confidence going into the playoffs.
This medical staff is awesome. A 24 year old dude can't even heal from a back strain in two weeks with these clowns handling things. Send Dmo to the witch doctor that cured McGrady.
im an optimist, but given his ridiculous reliability in the post, it will be missed in the playoffs when the intensity is even more consistent
Really is sickening. He just tweeted yesterday about making progress or whatever and now this?! I'll wait to hear from the rockets..
i think they're all sortve assuming this person on the inside meant postseason as well even though all he/she said was "season"
That's the part that frustrates me the most. Look, the injuries ain't the doctors' fault. They happen. But is it that hard to diagnose these things and account for the proper recovery time. They messed up royally with Dwight's knee injury the first time he came back since he clearly wasn't the same player. And that may have impacted D-Mo since he had to log heavy minutes at the 5. You could tell it was wearing him down as the season carried on.
I'm shattered, just another option gone. I think we can still go places without him, but when the pace slows in the playoffs you need that post option and this is where it hurts so bad. We will be running pick and roll and shooting 50 3s a gme.
The guy was playing heavy minutes out of position. Boxing out and posting up guys like Deandre Jordan. I'm glad we have been able to keep Dwight healthy, but damn....I think it cost us.
