    Did we cut Joey Dorsey? Forgotten, but not gone.

    Tonight is the night Capela scores!

    I'm cool with sitting Dmo for a while. We need him for the playoffs on that front line with Dwight.

    Flip Saunders was at Cleveland last night to watch the NCAA games and not even with his team in the shoot around this morning, he is on his way back to Houston this afternoon.

    I am guessing he will leave for NRG at half time to scout Duke also.

    lol

    Howard minutes could get increased fast as Rockets still gotta win these games to keep pace

    I just hope D-Mo is back after this road trip. We need him against Dallas, OKC, and San Antonio. Especially if T-Jones isn't back by then.

    So we cursed still? We better come out fighting!! Capela should've been already, Rockets are way too reactionary at times..

    Capela will be arriving just after 7, will suit up & play in the second half if required...thankfully the Wolves are also without a couple of their bigs.

    Smith will start in place of D-Mo, look for some KJ McDaniels minutes alongside the MVP in tonight's game.

    No DMo? Oh gods...

    Let's see 98 minutes combined in the PF and C positions
    Howard is on 20-24 minute restriction
    Smith plays around 28 minutes a game (if he is having a good game)

    36 to 40 minutes for Dorsey!! Are your bodies ready?!

    I hope Dorsey can play 20 minutes without fouling out..

    We honestly might be ****ed tonight without DMo, and freaking Howard with a minutes restriction.

    We better hope Smith is hitting those threes.

    If we are not blowing this T-wolves team out by 3rd Q, the Rockets may just need to fire McHale and Morey tonight.

    They do not want to win and they just signed some d-leaguer to tank the last few games as they don't even have enough bodies to dress up.

    Nick Johnson and KT should not play less than 10 minutes tonight or its a huge let down.

    Its good that they are sitting him out , a lower back injury is something you have to be careful with.
