    I wish Canaan would return alongside him. The Rockets are off after tonight until Wednesday.

    Rockets are running Terry and Garcia out there to facilitate the offense. Nick Johnson too can run a rudimentary offense.

    Well, have you seen our injury situation? T-Jones and Dwight have been out a while with no timetable for either one's return.

    Rox were never meant to finish top 4 anyways. This confirms it. Pap's intangibles did so much to help win shorthanded in most games thus far.

    Its true. Besides Harden and recently D-Mo's play, Pap's playmaking has been so key to get everything flowing for this team. I think he's the biggest blow to this team so far.

    Replacing his minutes with Garcia is what hurts moreso. He or Daniels needs to light it up from 3.

    I think this team should just be sporting some kind of new technology knee brace with shock absorbers. Gotta do something.

    How many games are in those 10 days. And how many games will it take for Pap to get back to speed? I was just over panicking but considering these new factors help.

    So is it safe to say that Rockets have become the Bulls of the West? Man... at times like these you can't help but envy Phoenix's or Toronto's medical staff.

    Greek media talk about ligament sprain of the first degree which means he is relatively lucky and he wont be out for long...they also say 10 days give or take.

    Typical Houston sports. When you actually have a good team, a promising team but the just always get injured. Houston sports is so depressing. :(

    Will Capela get some of Papa's minutes or will they all go to Cisco and possibly Trey?
