    Might be a good idea to hold him out just so Josh Howard's b****-ass doesn't cheap shot him and make his injury worse.

    Dorsey is not ready, sign Deke. As for Yao, better now then later, i figured he would be out for some period of time but better now where he can come back and get his conditioning back before the playoffs in my opinion. As Rocket fans we have to realize that this is bound to happen. Is it fair? no. I feel cheated. But we are deep. Scola is a warrior so is landry and i think that we will sign deke. This is if Yao's thing is serious

    eff that. Who cares about one damn game in November. Be healthy when it matters... The Playoffs.

    TMac proved he can lead this team to the post season without Yao.

    Have Yao sit until March, then bring him back to get him into game shape and have him 100% for when the REAL season beings.

    But its true. You rather have them now than later. I bet if it happened in March, you'll be like "Damn, I wish this would of happened in November". Because then, there's time for him to heal.

    They are just being cautious by doing the MRI... b/c lets say they let him play, and then again, and again... then it hurts again and they do an MRI and find fractures; then everybody would be like "why didn't you get an MRI after the OKC game???" I'd tend to agree...

    It doesn't mean that Yao is OK though... they may very well find season ending fractures in today's MRI. Which will cause me to be a very very sad person... :confused:

    So in other words, lets go Joey Dorsey!

    The more I think about it, the more I think Yao should sit out a few games. He's playing too many minutes too early in the season. He should be easing his way back onto the court.

    How about a virtual injury free season for once?
    That's what I rather have.

    Yao will miss a few games. They feared the worse this morning but tests came back okay.

    I don't have a link just a friend of a friend of someone who knows.

    Oh, do not say that, there will be not end season ending fractures this year, I am pretty much sure about that, God prohibits this to happen again, and again.

    This is why the Rockets need to sign Deke asap!

    What the hell is Morey talking about when he say there's nobody out there we could sign that we would play over the bigs we already have. You have no damn bigs on the team! Outside of Yao Ming is there another player over 6'10" on the Rockets?

    Sign Mutombo already, ****.

    rest yao if he has to rest. we can't afford to lose him. i don't care if the injury is exaggerated, any slight chance of injury, rest yao. we saw what happened last yr when that injury CAME OUT OF NOWHERE.

    Anybody that believes Yao isnt going to break down again is really drunk or high.

    Its mid November and he's already having problems. What is he going to do, sit every 3 games and play one? This guy is fragile and its eventually going to happen.

    Its time to break this team up and move in a new direction.
