    I am optimistic about Ron playing for us in the next game. It is very unlikely that the league suspends him.

    if les truly wants to win another title, he needs to at least consider exceeding the lux tax line and give morey that line if need be.

    Not really, if you look around the L, there are many good inexpensive backup Cs. You just have to find them, draft, FA, D-L...

    Birdman is on league minimum, so is Gortat.

    I would try to get the Birdman Chris Andersen in the offseason. Hopefully he won't be too expensive in the free agent market.

    Birdman isn't going anywhere except Denver after this season I believe. He got huge love from the fans there and his contribution to their team pretty much guaranteed himself a fruitful contract there already.

    i've been hoping for Andersen for a while now...but the way he's playing i'm not sure he'd leave Denver, i think he'd be more comfortable with those guys than houston, they have more of an edge.

    Denver bailed birdman out, and lucky for them he has lots of heart left...

    I guess we tried hard to bail Jackie Butler out before last season...

    Heart thing may matters more than money issue, there are lots of big man salary disasters out there, Cardinal(?), Curry...

    it might be a bit late now.

    my guess is he'd sign close to mle next year.

    I don't know, it's not just the playoffs. RA does this odd substitution many times in the regular season, against certain teams.

    And, is there any other big man, by any other coach, out there for an entire quarter or more without rest? Not even superman does it. Yao Ming is the biggest of them all, and he does it.

    No bench center for Yao. It's really worrying.

    i don't think any other team relies more on their center than the rockets.

    not even the magic. howards main contribution is rebounds and blocks and they have a decent player who gives you just that coming off the bench in gortat.

    if the rockets take yao out, not one player can come close to filling in for him in any category.

    Ankle or foot?

    Just reading an update on the game on espn (on my phone) and they are saying it is yao mings foot that is hurt. Any confirmation that it is the ankle and not his foot from the rockets?
