matt bullard said he struggled with the same issues as a 6'10" guy with a long torso. iirc back problems ended his career, albeit many years later. The pounding dmo takes in the post probably makes it even worse as compared to a guy like bullard who played predominantly on the perimeter.
Sh..... this team is fu... cursed we're going nowhere w/o DMO he was the only real threat on the post
Certainly hurts our depth, and it sucks man can't catch a break. BUT we still have TJones and JSmith expect them to carry the load w/ Dorsey getting very few minutes.

Yeah, but how can they rule him out for the season just because he's not ready to come back? The playoffs aren't for 10-11 days. And if the Rockets advance to the second round, that won't begin for 3 1/2 weeks. Is his injury that serious that they can tell right now he won't be ready even in a month? If so, someone needs to get fired on the medical staff. Talk about misdiagnosing the guy.
