    Reports on Chinese web sites suggested it could be something more serious, as Yao Ming got some injury history relating to ligament/meniscus tear on his right knee.

    True, his legs are huge, very easy to bruise against somebody else's legs.

    The Rockets are cursed...

    Could the high level of defense be responsible for the high level of injuries this team has faced?

    It seems that Yao was sent to the hospital and he felt much better now and smiled.

I hope that interprets to a couple of weeks or less. Man, i'am just simply freaking out!! :mad:

    i dunno why everyone is freaking out...i assume tmac will be back in a game or so...and we dont have a tough schedule ahead of us...we should be grateful it wasnt a hyperextension...or a torn knee ligament...both of those could have seen yao out for months...
