    T-Mac didn't play in the PRE-season game against Orl, but he did play in the regular season. Don't you remember the game where he got booed by the Magic fans on national TV, and he said that he "loved it".

    Is it Sura's fault?

    the argument that sura doesn't pass the ball to yao will definetly be valid tonight.

    I hope that Strick has been working out over the break and not eating Krispie Kremes. I noticed that in the last couple of games, that teams are applying the press when Strick has the ball, teams sense he is slow and rusty and vulnerable to turning the ball over. I personally would start DW at the point and JB at the SG.

    JVG was right, worse thing that ever happened to the NBA was God and Golf. Guys with bad backs should never play golf, only thing that explains how Sura could go to LV and hurt his back. It's that or he fell off a chair while playing blackjack.

    LOL, if Rox lose tonight, it is still Sura's fault though.

    exactly theres a lot of options out there. vangundy was asked by dalati on 790 sports whether bob suras status means the rockets will try to make a trade for a point guard and he did say depending on his status they may try harder but that Dawsons always trying to improve the team but yeah they may try hard-er to get a point guard.

    there is a lot of options out there: gary payton. sam cassell. nick van exel and derek anderson. there's toronto wanting to get rid of jalen rose's contract - do you now try to take on his contract along with marshall if sura is out for a long period of time? then there's rafaer alston as a last resort choice maybe. there's options out there if Sura is out for awhile. but time is running out.

    Hopefully he hurt it golfing and it has nothing to do with his off-season surgery...

    I would start Barrett. That guy needs to see some playing time in the second half of the season. it's nice to have some young pesky guy running around the floor in the playoffs. ala scotty brooks. get him on the floor more and let him run the ther guy's PG ragged.

    OK, I hope it's not serious. We need to steal a game either today or tomorrow while Sura isn't here, then we are probably ok. We don't need a two game losing streak!

    Yeah, but JVG's track record so far has been to start a bench player rather than move one of his rotation players into a starting position. That's how Boki got the occasional start. Fact of the matter is that Strickland will start, will get minor minutes unless he begins playing, and others will come off the bench in the context to the usual rotation.
