    Got a cortisone shot in his shoulder yesterday, will sit out tonight, and return on friday. Rafer, Shane, and Landry will all play.

    That's good. He need's to do something about that shoulder before playoffs. Hope he gets better soon.

    Rafer is back so there is no need for worry.

    Great!

    Need to get that sucker healed up.

    Hey I have noticed he always has a band-aid on it. Is he getting pain or cortisone shots previously?

    Seattle sucks. The Comets might be able to beat them.

    Which would make it all the more painful if we don't win tonight. With Phoenix, Utah, and Denver still on the schedule (Clips as well), we can't afford to give away a game like this if we want a shot at homecourt in the first round.

    On the flipside, if we can pull this out handicapped and allow McGrady to rehab his shoulder so he can be closer to 90% for the playoffs....

    Which means Comets > Nuggets. So the Comets would be 8th seed out West. We should go hard for the #1 seed to play the Comets in the first round.

    Seattle is on game 2 of a back-to-back on the road. They just lost to the Mavs last night.

    They're 2-8 over the past ten games and are in last place in the West. They mathematically can't make the playoffs (not even close).

    During January, Feb, March, and April, they've won on the road only twice.

    If the Sonics have any energy at all, I'm hoping they run out of gas in the third or fourth quarter and we can get the win.

    This is a great game for T-mac to sit out.

    Well I hope his shoulder will get better soon and it will be ok for playoffs.

    Of course it is good to rest him and i hope we can win and again as i said, i hope his shoulder will be ok soon.

    The Rockets should be able to win but you never know in the NBA. Huge games from Scola, Landry, and Brooks are needed tonight.

    T-Mac needs the rest.

    Playoffs are around the corner & we will need him to be 101%!

    This game and the Clippers are games TMac can sit out. I hope his shoulder heals in time for the playoffs.

    Time to step up. Winning 22 straight games is like curing cancer compared to this. No excuses!!
