    Talk about a Playoff run guys just read where Van Exel Ruptured Tendon In His Foot and is expected to miss 2-3 weeks. They will put him in a cast and evaluate him on Tuesday.

    It's music to my ears. With him out, the Nugs will get a heavy does of Robert Pack. I know they aren't too thrilled about that.

    Now it's time to see what the Nugs are made of. They have been relatively healthy up till now. Every team has to go through injuries.

    I can't believe there are people who are actually happy that a player is injured, but hopefully he will recover soon. I think a person's health is more important then the game of basketball.

    It's not like he's on life support here. Anything that will help the rockets, I aint complaining about. I'm not like Vancouver fans who WANT to see Steve Francis get injured, I'm just not crying that Nick Van Exel ,who has always killed the rockets, is injured.

    This also may significantly help Steve's All-Star chances...

    I want to make the playoffs, I don't care how. I'd rather it not be by other team's players being hurt, but I'd rather it be that way then waiting on the lottery.
