    Yep... unfortunately that was the case...
    I guess better now than the middle or at the end of the regular season.

    Hides it during offseason?

    I’m aware that he got his extension. My point was if he had this procedure over the summer, he still would have received his extension from the Rockets or in free agency next summer. Therefore, he didn’t need to wait to secure the bag first. It’s not a career-threatening knee injury.

    I also know that athletes do this often, and it’s annoying every time. It’s one thing if it’s a new injury, but this was soreness that had persisted since the middle of last season.

    He's been playing like ****, can't say I mind. At least Dumbtony is forced to give other guys more minutes now.

    When the Rockets say "day to day" it's weeks. When the Rockets say 6 weeks, how long will it be?

    4-6 weeks is doubled - Gordon to miss 8-12 weeks.

    Good, him not playing at this point is a big improvement for the team.

    Regular season in the NBA don't mean nuthin.

    Just be healthy and in a rhythm by May. Harden can carry G leaguers to the playoffs.

    Totally agree with this.

    I don't know why other posters are freaking out about him missing one month right at the beginning of the season. It's not important now. Much better now than late in season and playoffs.

    I heard Nene got a Keith Jones retirement type deal.

    Consult your local agent for more details
