Game 45: Return of Smoove! Rockets host Bucks 

Post#1 » by Mr. E » Fri Jan 22, 2016 5:58 pm

.500 record 44 games into the season. They have already matched their home loss total from last season. Changes need to be made.

First up, the bizarre return of Josh Smith to the Rockets lineup! I haven't heard if he is expected to play tonight, but he'll be needed as the Rockets are short Dwight, Beverley, Motiejunas and possibly Harrell.

Is this where it all turns around?

Go Rockets!

I'll be traveling today so I don't know if I'll be around for the game or not. I'll be looking for updates wherever I am.

I'm excited and pissed off all at once. Mostly because all of this could've been avoided and maybe we would still have McHale

Maybe Smoove will make Jones better. Hasn't had to worry about his minutes with Dmo out

Hey hey all. Haven't been around much lately. Been watching a lot of Rockets Basketball, just to bummed to talk too much about it. Plus my better half is about 2 -3 weeks away from giving birth to son number 2. Excited to see J-Smoove return to the fold, I think it's a good thing personally. Maybe we aren't in as a good position as this time last year, but anything can happen come playoffs, (assuming we make them.)
