Best luck to Landry AND Chase (Damn, two bad nights). Here is what Landry posted on his Chinese sponsor's website: Hello SINA Family! It's been a painful 24 hours for yours truly. As many of you already know, I took a charge and broke three teeth in the game versus the Dallas Mavericks last night. I had to go to the emergency room in Dallas last night and spent the entire day in oral surgery back home in Houston. This is not the first time I have lost some teeth playing basketball...I certainly hope it is the last! During my rookie year, my good friend and PEAK ambassador, Dikembe Mutombo knocked out one of my front teeth in practice. That was the first time. Then, later in that season during playoffs, I lost the same tooth in a game versus the Utah Jazz. That was one of my most memorable games ever, so I will never forget it. We were on TNT and I came back in the game and made the game saving block on Darren Williams!!! I did the post game interview with a big gap in my mouth! Injuries are part of this game and luckily, my teeth are repairable. I'll just have a swollen and sore mouth for a few more days. Thanks to everyone for their well wishes! I really appreciate all of the kind words. I am fine, just sore and very tired! Congrats to my teammates for the big overtime win!!! We really needed that one! Good luck to everyone tonight! I will be back soon with my brand new smile!!! GO ROCKETS!!! Ouch..that hurt!!! I'll send some new picks when the swelling goes down. Too ugly right now.

A nice day off tomorrow to help his swelling in his mouth go down is great. Then a game against the Clippers which he can miss, hopefully bringing him back for the Magic.
Either it's a simple mistake OR one of the top ten burns in this decade by a Rockets player on a NBA player from another team.
do the players actually post these, or do they have lackeys do it for them? because that's the fakest sounding web post i've ever read.
To be quite honest, the Deron gaffe makes me believe it is really written by Landry. I don't think PR guys would get Deron's name wrong lol
I'm surprised the translation in English actually made sense...usually when these Chinese sites translate it's pretty funny...I expected something along the lines of: I teeth break last game. Pain is great hurt.
You got it wrong altogether. It was the other way round. Carl Landry wrote his own blog in English, and people at sina.com translated it back into Chinese.
