    It is time to see what Yao can do. A huge loss for team but an opportunity for him to be the dominant force he can be. Don't forget that last year we assumed our season was over when Yao went down but McGrady arguably revived his career by carrying the Rockets.

    If Tmac's out. It's gotta be Stevie time. Sorry, but he's the only other scorer on this team.

    We've already seen what Yao can do without Tmac. 2-5 against mostly sub-standard teams. This is McGrady's team.

    Sikma said doesn't look promising for 2nd half. No other details yet. Oh, and we suck on D and need to make layups. Duh.

    they should at least put stevie in so the crowd can get into it... they can pull him out after the first t/o.

    Are you so blind that you don't see how smoother the offense ran when Alston came back in for James, we managed to start scoring points again. The point differential is constant because Kobe is on fire and started torching us and we don't have a legit big perimeter defender to put on him.

    And what the **** are you extremely for Rafer's head, is that even important right now? Did you not just see TMac's right arm not being able to move? What's wrong with you? Do fans like yourself always crucify players and not have any faith in the team as soon as a little bad stuff happens?

    How can you expect our players to have heart and be tough when you fans bloody quit when something goes wrong for like, 1 quarter or 1 game of basketball?

    "Strained right elbow" is the diagnosis, according to ESPN...
