    Well, DMo missing shootaround isn't a great sign.

    Looks like Dorsey will get heavy minutes tonight. That's if he doesn't foul out :rolleyes: lol

    Does this mean Smith will start? Ariza may have to play some minutes at the 4 tonight too.

    Last few times we had guys miss shootaround they wound up playing anyway... hopefully he's just giving his back a rest and can go.

    Ariza missed shootaround last Saturday and played against Phoenix. They're just being careful with D-Mo. I'm more worried about the upcoming 4 games in 5 nights. Can these guys all make it through that(aside from Dwight who'll miss 2 of the games)?

    No Jones, questionable Dmo, limited Howard, injured Smith. Can we get a break?

    First time Howard faces Garnett since headbutt?

    Harden goes for 50.

    I think it's fine. They're probably hoping this thing's over by the end of the 3rd and Capela can get a few minutes.

    Maybe an extra body for practices with the frontcourt injuries right now.

    Capela is going to put someone on a poster tonight. Here is to a breakout game.

    Not that there's ever a good time for injuries but coming at the wrong time.
