    Is it just me or does Jones get injured once a week nowadays?

    Poor me? I'd imagine all Rockets fans can't wait till DMo is back if they watched the first 2 games....

    Also, with Jones being hurt yet again, it should give Harrell more of a chance to show what he can do. So far he's thoroughly outplayed Jones which, if he can continue to do so, will be huge down the line.

    It's only two games, but he's been the best Rocket thus far.

    If you saw the game last night, you know it's not a fake injury.

    Looks good! As a rookie, his post moves look more effective and fluid than T-Jones, and his FT shooting stroke looks good. I think it's safe to say that T-Jones' days as a Rocket are numbered.

    So why no return of MH until garbage time.

    Harrell absolutely earned more minutes last night. If Jones wants to give half-ass effort, put in someone who wants to be on the court. Positive things happened as soon as Harrell entered the game, so why did we not see him again until garbage time? Hold these players accountable and show them there is someone hungry capable of taking their spots.

    1:36, Golden State was inbound when inbounding the ball.

    Take a step back. DMO is not expendable.

    As I said earlier, didn't say AND. There's no way we keep both. It just depends on what direction the team wants to go. That's why I threw DMo in there as well. Clearly anyone smart would keep DMo over Jones.

    So long as Montrezl maintains his current trajectory I would definitely agree with you. IMO, TJones will be the odd man out as long as DMo can come back to last seasons form.

    No way Morey pays someone like TJones 12 plus million a season if Harrell pans out. Just my opinion.

    Not just your opinion, that's the core tenet of Moreyball: have a constant stream of quality players coming in on team friendly contracts whether through draft or FA and don't overpay for anyone.

    That is good because Dekker is horrible, he has terrible quickness, looks like an utter bust to me.
