Brooks out at least 2 weeks

It sucks that just as we're entering the easy part of our early schedule, we get hit by this injury.

Oh well. Rotation shortening by necessity might force the Rockets to figure out who the really are. The Rockets need to return to their gritty, tenacious style to climb out this hole the dug up. Maybe something good comes out of this mess, somehow.

 

If Ish plays well, these next two weeks, CF is going to have it's first civil war of the season.

 

2 weeks is really good news considering the strength of schedule.

 

maybe, but it's at least 2 weeks, more than likely more...and he hasnt even been checked by the doc yet, so i think they're just saying at least 2 weeks from a visual inspection.

 

I expect better team ball movement for the next two weeks...

I think this a blessing in disguise, not because aaron was causing chemistry issues or anything, but the team now have to up their intensity and defense to compensate for the loss of brooks. Its sink or swim time for the rockets.

 

Anybody know Lowry's timetable?

 

i think he's day to day

 

a group always comes out stronger after a civil war

 

Thanks.

Yeah, I know they said that last time and he went out again for back spasms. Hopefully he will be able to fully heal and put it behind him.

Really, I think Lowry should work with Lee and Martin's trainer. He had those guys in tip top shape this season.

 

i know that, i meant to say that the next two weeks shouldn't be so bad considering the strength of schedule. so if brooks has to miss 3 weeks, it won't be 3 terrible weeks if the next 2 weeks are easy games.

 

We are the highest scoring team in the NBA !!!!!

We dont need brooks offence in the starting lineup !!!!

 

The Spurs played four on five for almost a decade and net them 3 titles.
It doesn´t matter if you play 5 on 5 but only one gets the ball.

OUCH...tough break for Aaron and the team. Lowry needs to get over his back issues VERY quickly.

 

Time for Ish to shine, he's got sole possession of the 1 for at least a week now.

 

Doesn't want to be traded, can't trade an injured player :grin:

 

But a scoring PG mean that the Spurs were playing 1 on 5, instead of 5 on 5 with a pass first pg like Ish.

 

It sucks especially the injury was caused by a half-time desperation shot.

 

I feel bad for AB but this is definitely a good news for the rox team. Lowry and IS can make our defense much better and the offense organized.
