[INJURED] Yao to Miss at Least Six Weeks with Non-Displaced Fracture of Right Tibia

Yao will take some chinese herbs to speed up the healing process.
3 Weeks to heal
2 Weeks to get back into shape.
---
5 Weeks total


I wish

 

4-6 weeks, it just takes time.

 

So where is Battier ?

 

It's diffcult to be Rox fans. But this may not be a totally bad news.

First, Rox won't win too many games anyway with Just Yao. And Yao finally got his well-deserved rest and could make the final push with Tracy for the playoffs once they're all back. Cuz with the way JVG has been using Yao, he would be deadly exhausted by the time the post season starts.

Second, once Yao's out, JVG would play Novak, Vspan, and JL3 more. They need playing time to gain experience and develop as better players. I mean they got the potential, why not give them a try, JVG? Head is the great example who benefited from the injuries of both stars last season. If Rox wanna go deep in the playoffs, role players are as important.

Let us hope that the remaining Rox could win some games and Yao won't miss a beat of his game after he's back.

 

I want tmac back (X) 100 times for Christmas

 

How can you think positive right now, dude?! Yao is having his best season ever and is ready to be the next MVP! I hate it when someone from the Rockets have to deal with a f*cking injury! Why can 't we stay healty, damn!?? .... "Yao usually heals from his injury faster than normal", I hope it dude, I hope it!

 

I will pray for Yao everyday starting from now. I believe he will be back earlier than that. Hope TMAC will be back soon.

 

What playoffs ? Next season's playoffs ?

 

i just lost all my money in poker too. worst day of my life....

 

You did read the other posts? they showed quite a lot of respect.

Why the hostility against Lakerspride? As far as I see he does not try to get us winded up, or mad. He actually seems to feel sorry for us, and tries to make us feel better. So no reason to get mad at him.

This is really bad.

 

Well, we have to look at the brighter side of things at our darkest hours, right ?

• There is no MCL, ACL, PCL or whatever CL....
• It's a non-displaced fracture of his right tibia that hopefully will not require surgery
• Yao Ming is a tough guy, a warrior, and a quick healer. When he broke his foot in April last season, and even after a surgery, he resumed training in June, 6 weeks after the surgery.

Just hope that this time round......he could continue watching video tapes of the game, learn about other team's play games/style, resume walking soon, and carry on some other upper limbs/strength and conditioning training together with Anthony Falsone.

For some reasons, I believe he can return to court sooner than what you indicate........

Let's hope the Rockets without him, and probably Tracy McGrady too, could as Jonathan Feigen said, step up and try to win games they should win, and steal a game or two here and there, to accumulate sufficient wins that then when he and Tracy return healthy, the Rockets is still not out of reach for the playoff.

That's the least as Yao Ming and Rockets fans can hope for, right ??

 

man, I just realized Yao's MVP's gone too.

 

I don't know if the Rockets should just tank this season or keep fighting hard. If JVG could fully develop the bench players, such as Novak and VSpan, and the team could keep it close around 50%, we will have a great shot at playoff after Yao comes back. I just hope Yao could recover soon! Bless him!

 

guys it ain't that bad

I had a similar injury from a rugby tackle, hairline crack on the rear tibia bone

out for a couple of onths on crutches, after that no issues, but it did take a bit of time to regain my strength, and now no issues. I can rebound and jump like a mad man

 

i dont think the majority of people here know what rugby is

 

fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck!!!!!!

 

Here are the comments from a Chinese expert on Sport Medicine (Link - http://sports.sina.com.cn/k/2006-12-24/15172658933.shtml). Sounds not that bad.

骨裂将会产生巨大的疼痛，这也就是为什么姚明会在地板上挣扎那么久的原因。对于骨裂的治疗，一般是采取固定，等裂缝愈合。这个时间大概需要4-6周。而且，只要愈合的过程中好好的修养，伤愈后就不会有任何的后遗症。更加谈不上危及职业生涯了。

Non-displaced fracture is very painful and that is why Yao struggled on the floor for so long. The treatment for non-displaced fracture is fixation and waiting it to heal naturally. This may take 4 to 6 weeks. Moreover, if well treated and rested, there will leave no impact (on Yao's play).

 

Isn't rugby the thing you eat around the fire with billy tea?

Oh wait, that's damper...


Back to the billabong for me...

 

yeah...you go back to your billabong and drown yourself

 

man ,You still can expect Yao' MVP of Finals
