    I was afraid this might happen. Much like Tmac, Brandon Roy or even dwade, this "bone on bone" injury will most likely get worse and will not get better.

    Hmm... I still wonder if it's more of precaution and they'd prefer to use him against NO the next night. I mean if he really is just experiencing stiffness now and not really bone on bone...

    I'm still not so sure about this being true bone on bone. I mean you don't suddenly have bone on bone especially with no knee surgeries, unless they're lying about the PRP and he had his knee scoped... But I'd think he'd be out longer then.

    This coming out right when it was announced Davis was making his return for the Pelicans tonight. Something tells me Dwight will sit our to rest for the Pelicans game.

    I hope.

    Not a chance this is bone on bone. Rockets management is not stupid and would've never used him for 30 minutes if his situation was this serious. Not to mention that the Rockets were doing fine without him.

    Moses Malone: Free Agency Problems
    Ralph Sampson: Back and Knee problems
    Kelvin Cato: Brain problems
    Yao Ming: Foot problems
    Dwight Howard: Knee problems?

    Hakeem is the only one that came away unscathed

    This is what I'm leaning towards. As others have said, I don't think they would've trotted him out there as long as they did the other night if the situation were dire. It makes sense to avoid B2Bs if he can, and it definitely makes sense to sit the first half of this one w/ AD coming to town on Thursday.

    For the love of God, stop with the "bone on bone" - every time I read it my knee starts to hurt. It's empathy or something, I don't know, man, but it literally pains me to read. I get an ache. It just sounds like it hurts a **** load.

    Lol you'd think Dwight was 39 years old... I don't think it's that deep we are saving our guys for playoffs. Last year we were burnt out and we weren't playing D of course.
