    McHale and Morey made Kevin Martin's labral cry. Most of us would shed a tear, too, being treated this way.

    Anyhow, I guess there is a physical reason for his struggles in the last month or so.

    I initially read that as a tear in his labia and thought nothing of it.

    Hurrah, out for the reasons.

    Now Lee can start, and we get to trade Martin's ass over the summer.

    Great, we don't need him. Although I imagine this will make hanging on to Lee just that more difficult.

    Martin played hurt and never complained or made excuses even though it effected his play. I respect that. I don't hate Martin like everyone else on the board. I think he is a great piece to have next to a dominate player that creates shots for him.

    Well, that's a big deal because it's his shooting shoulder. When Kevin isn't shooting the ball=useless. Let him sit out the rest of the season.

    Looks like thats the case. From my sports injury experience something like this can take weeks to month to fully heal and strengthen the tendon. I just wish they would have found the tear weeks ago so he would have been able to get proper treatment and be available here shortly.

    There are alot of people that would be happy if Kevin Martin never wears a Rockets uniform ever again, but Im not one of them. He's had a bad year, but he's still a good player that any team would want. Hopefully this team can stay healthy the rest of the way and get them into the playoffs.

    Best Rockets news of the year, I think we have a real shot at winning a playoff series with Courtney Lee's D.
