    Yes, he let Yao play too much. That happened to T-mac too.
    The other party we shall blame is Chinese national team officers. They abused Yao too.
    Hopefully Yao is not seriously injured. And those stupid coaches and officers could stop abusing Yao.

    Just got call back from a friend after agounizing 15 minutes, he say's it's bruised bone and possible little tear on patellar tendon( WTF is that?). Rockets team doctor , Keith and residence practitionist are all in a huddle still. I'll keep you all posted. What is Patellar Tendon. Anyone? :(

    F***. We're done. Please Lord, on this fast approaching Christmas, let Yao heal faster than that wolverine guy from XMen.

    It took a T-Mac injury for Yao to assert himself and become dominant. Maybe McGrady will do the same in Yao's absence. And then when Yao comes back they'll both be at full strength.

    That's the only positive spin I can put on this.

    Based on the news from a Chinsese website, Yao will be out for 6 weeks.
