I believe this is the same injury Westbook suffered in the playoffs. The media outlets will have a field day with talks of Karma.
I love Pat Bev and it's a big loss, but he is not the difference between us and an "obvious" first round exit.
LO what now? I don't even know what that stuff means. I know how Rocket fans are...everything is "we're cursed". Therefore....
I don't think so. I think the first round is still a gimme. I'm heavily leaning towards a 2nd round exit though.
Good luck to PB. I hope he makes the best choice for his career long term not coming back really quickly. Ala Brandon Roy. As for the Rockets. Next man up. The questions I have Do we need another PG for the Playoffs? Can Daniels play PG if Harden is the guy bringing the ball up? How much does this change the expectations for this team? Get Well PB. Fierguard Bleed Red Rockets Red.
Does anyone have video of how Pat got injured ? Did he just land the wrong way or did someone run into him ?
We are going to be the 4th seed, Portland is definitely no gimme. If Bev goes down, what's even worse is that we'll be relying on Canaan as our 2nd PG for the playoffs, a guy who has barely played with the 2nd unit at all. I don't mind Lin starting, even though it's frustrating to see him drive to the hoop, stop,and have no idea what to do next.
This is seriously messed up, I was hoping for that 2nd round / WCF match-up with OKC and the series turning bad with blows thrown, technicals, flagrants and everything.
