    We get Dwight back, but at what cost?! Beverly obviously had to sacrifice his wrist to summon the Eternal Shenron to wish for Dwight's return. Beverly the real mvp.

    Now that is LOL funny. :grin:

    Are we sure that 1-2 of them didn't say it's 50/50?

    So seven of them think we'll get worse once he comes back, since we're currently in the top 3?

    Top 3 in the West Standings, yes. But I guess they didn't think we were a Top 3 CONTENDER when Dwight was out. Which is fair

    Seems like Broussard is trying to imply that all of the playoff teams in the west don't think anything of the Rockets. Of course without defining the level of exec or coach, he could have just asked everyone in one organization with a variation of that title their opinion on D12. In other words,this guy will remain a joke.

    Can we just get Peter Vescey and the NBA on NBC back? ESPN just sucks at their ability to report and present the game of basketball.

    How many games does Dwight play before he gets injured again? Or should I ask, how many minutes... :confused:

    It is really not that un-reasonable. Look at it from the other perspective (especially considering who he asked).

    If he asked Carlisle, Dallas would be top 3. There is bias. But without bias, one can make the argument for:

    Warriors (obviously)
    Spurs (defending champs)
    Memphis (2nd seed)

    That by itself, really sounds reasonable. I would accept that argument from an opposing fan.

    I don't mind being called out by people, & very rarely expect a response from those who got it wrong ( unless your name is Glenrice & bet me that you'd kiss a donkey on the butt & video it, if you lost a bet...), but I stuck my head out & posted some info that I received regarding Dwight's return.

    Maybe I should just share any further, what y'all call, 'insider info' with my mates on FaceBook & fellow Rowdies mates.

    I told you to wait & see...we waited & we saw. So give credit where credit is due Orange man.

    I wish I made it a tip jar bet, but in the end I'm just glad the big guy is back.

    GO ROCKETS!!!

    Read my sig...

    Any updates on Dwight's minutes limitations? How much longer will this 20 mpg thing go?

    I bet his minutes are limited in the last 6 regular season games and maybe even into the playoffs. This could make the Rockets vulnerable in the 1st round.

    Looking like they're going to do it until the playoffs begin. When Dmo comes back, where are his minutes going to come from? Should be interesting. DMo will get Dorsey's minutes, but that still only leaves 20 for Dwight?

    That'd be absurd if they kept it into the playoffs. That would pretty much just mean he's not healthy enough to be back to begin with.

    I'm thinking they'll really ramp him up with 3-4 games to go.

    Can't wait for D-mo to come back so Dorsey won't have to play.
