    LOL no. He just said a "personal issue" was the reason he didn't start. I'd be more inclined to think he was late to practice or something than to think he has a drug problem or some life-altering issue he needs "help" for.

    Judging from the McHale quote (scrolled back a couple of pages), I'm guessing TJ was late to practice or something.

    Thanks, Klutch. Yeah, that's what I thought too after seeing the McHale quote.

    Nah, Jones just forgot to bring the kolaches and coffee to morning shootaround, today.

    McHale seems like a guy that drinks coffee and a lot of it.

    I guess Jones didn't show up to the Bryson Jones event today. Good solid disciplinary move by McHale; knew he wasn't benched for rotation reasons.

    Can't wait to see Dwight back, tired of seeing teams shade Harden... over and over again.

    Getting the two seed doesn't necessarily mean playing the Spurs. They are tied in the loss column with Dallas and the Clippers.

    There's been many of them this season...maybe not of late, but probably the Cavs game and one of the CLips games for most recent

    oladipo will be a problem in a year or two. dude can ball. if he and elfrid mature at the right time, that's a backcourt with a lot of potential.

    Seems a bit harsh for a Rockets fan.

    D-Mo has the best game in weeks when TJ comes off the bench, coincidence?

    Where was Terry?

    Seems like a total team win, but struggling to beat the Magic is not all that great. Memphis keeps dropping games though haha

    Oladipo and Payton are going to terrorize the East for years if they are able to stay together and healthy. Factor in Vucevic who is a more than capable two way center they have a strong nucleus going forward. This isn't even factoring Aaron Gordon who has shown flashes but is still clearly a project. I am so glad they finally got rid of Jacque Vaughn as their coach.

    They are definitely a team in 2-3 year will be tough to deal with. Them, the bucks and if Hinkie has his way - the sixers

    They are going to give the Rockets fits for as long as Oladipo and Payton are together.

    Dipo is strong enough to stay with Harden and clearly athletic enough.

    I can imagine Harden will not be looking forward to playing Orlando from now on.

    magic will also have a high lotto pick. They will be a good team next year if they get a coach worth a damn.

    bucks, magic, 76ers are the future for the east? who woulda thunk it

    George Karl would have been so perfect for Orlando. Should've waited for that job.
