    yeah but they have him as "day to day", so I dont think it's as bad and I think it's just to make sure that he's alright. they dont want to "rush him back" and I agree with them on this decision. this is not the same as last season's problem. it was a result of him sitting down for and extended period of time (about 30 minutes, including the rest he got in the end of the 3rd, the time they waited for lights where he DIDNOT warm up like other players did, and the rest time he got in the beginning of the 4th) and then coming in and playing full speed.. it's hopefully nothing to worry about..

    Don't worry about Tmac but I need on key backup of Luther Head. If T-mac will not play next game, Which will put starter on Shooting Guard Bonzi Wells or Luther Head? Rockets' weakness is without Tmac's injury.

    Could the back spasms be related to the way McGrady was attacking the basket in the third quarter? The Rockets were posting him up a lot more than usual. I wonder if that put any extra pressure on his back. I hope not, because I thought it was very effective.

    Is this a rush job or is he okay again?
