    Wassup with all this knee injuries to NBA PGs? Seems like knees can't keep up with speed of the game?

    Bev needs to get paid. Removing it just hinders his career long term. His best bet is for surgery. Unless he can rehab it. Doubt he can make it back for the playoffs. Maybe the WCF or Finals if they get there.

    He removed his meniscus, or at least part of it.
    If Bev were a vet with a few years left in his career, he could remove it.

    But speaking from Bev's standpoint if he were interested in the longetivity of his personal career and not getting shorted on money, he'd just shut it down for the season and recover.

    this is tough, not only because bev is needed at what he does but now an already bad bench gets worse.

    I don't think so. We have a limited choice and Gibson is already the best PG I could think of.

    Damn, first last year and now again??? We definitely will not make it far with Lin and Canaan as our PGs!! That Hamilton - Brooks trade looks pretty bad right now....

    So...er uh...Sergio Lull...about that promise of a starting lineup position you wanted...


    Man. This sucks. Bev has become my favorite Rocket. I was just thinking about how great the playoffs were going to be.

    Is there a back up point guard we can sign? Lin can manage starting job but I want a veteran point guard. Canaan isn't ready yet.

    Do people really think Lin/Bev is the difference in whether or not we make it to the 2nd round? :confused:

    No, but it might be the difference between whether we make it OUT of the 2nd round.

    DAMN! Hopefully he can come back at some point during the playoffs. Time for Lin and Canaan to step it up.
