Any updates on Dwight? (UPDATE: Dwight to return on Wednesday in New Orleans)

Haha! Me too man...me too. This was the best news you could hope for. In fact it is so good that it is better than what I was hoping for. Fingers crossed that the good news continues to pour in. We Houston fans deserve a damn break for the first time in a long time.

 

Great news. Gotta love our chances in the playoffs this time around. Really looking forward to that.

 

It seems like we get quotes saying players are better than ever, and then they end up being exactly like they were before or worse. So I'll believe it when I see it.

Remember T-Mac saying he feels as good as he ever did and that this would be the best season of his career after he had microfracture? It seems like this kind of stuff happens all the time.

 

he sure can talk the talk... long term wise, don't think DH will ever play more than 1/2 of a season for the rest of his career.

 

I want to believe!!

 

wow and that's based on what

Will Dwight come off of the bench when he returns? That would be great to see.

 

umm come off the bench for who exactly?

 

You can think whatever you'd like. It doesn't make it right and it doesn't make it wrong. Right now, nobody knows.

 

Insider info:
Two dates pinned.
Date 1:
27th March
Rockets vs Timberwolves.

Date 2:
Looking at 18th vs Magic as best scenario, 20th vs Nuggets & 22nd vs Suns.

Possible rest & reevaluate against Pacers 24th & Pelican 26th (both away)

And re-return vs Timberwolves.

That's best case scenario (for us fans & apparently what Dwight wants)...but my info is team Doctors just want him to wait for 27th.

Dwight wants the Date 2 option...but everything is geared towards being ready for playoffs.

Shhhhhh...don't tell anyone.

 

No games on those days

 

I am not training right as the only thing that I always have to replace is the keyboard.

 

I want this guy to comeback already so people can stop saying we need McGee

 

So now we know why they traded for Prigioni. Can't be having Shved throwing these passes to Dwight in practice:

 

my thoughts as well. The moment I read that I thought of Tracy McGrady and started shaking my head and thinking I've heard this before...

 

I think most of us are just numb to Rockets players injuries after Tmac and Yao. We are hoping for the best, but at the same time prepared for the worst. Can you blame us? Tmac and Yao were done even before their 30s, while Amare and Caveman are still playing today. That thought sucks worse than a 2 cent hooker.

 

Spoiler

Agreed: those are the worst ^

 

While I agree that that does seem to happen sometimes, this time is different because it was the reporters who first mentioned how "explosive" he looked and how he was "living above the rim" at practice.

They geared their questions in that direction because of what they saw him do in practice. They seemed impressed.

So I don't think it's just talk by Dwight.
