    Behind Yao and Tmac, Sura is the 3rd most important player on this team. That's just on production. But then when you see that Sura really has NO quality backup, that makes him even more important!

    Again, how good would Derrick Anderson look right about now?

    I was just wondering if we'd had confirmation from other sources. I was thinking that getting an MRI didn't necessarily preclude Sura from playing, considering Sura's toughness and past history of playing hurt, if the MRI didn't show something to be that concerned about. Just looking for a sliver of light in the dark clouds gathering, suddenly, around the Rockets.

    And I'm going to SA Wednesday for the game. That S.O.B. better be healthy!! :mad:

    I'm starting to think I'm the only person to hear it. There is still only one thread about it and that's strange.

    Did anyone else hear it?....I didn't misunderstand it did I?

    Yeah, the timing isnt great (although when is it ever for an injury). But at least it is going on BEFORE the trading deadline. Maybe this will fast track CD in trying to make a move for a backup PG.

    Blatz, when it comes to radio, you are the man. If you heard it, I believe you. I just want to find out if they had it right. :)

    It seems that Fortson will miss this game too. That might be a tradeofff for both teams at rebounds.

    So both Fortson and Sura are coincidentally out for tonight?

    Maybe that means a Taylor/Sura/Ward for Fortson/Daniels/Potepenko trade is in the works!!! ;)

    This is part of why we swapped JJ for Wesley. Daniels and Ridnour might have a field day against us, though.

    It would be stupendously ironic if we traded Mo on Mo bobblehead night, but I don't see it happening.

    So what exactly happened to his back and what's the results of the MRI? How long is he going to be out? Any words on these?

    ESPN 790 just said his back is sore. They have not gotten the results back yet.

    Sura must have had a wild party during the vacation in Vegas. The party was so crazy that he hurt his back.

    Crap.
