    Seroiusly, the organization is so messed up recently.

    But looking back to the beginning of this season, I strongly believe the Rockets Management has considered contigency plan to cater situation like this (I mean when TMac or Yao was not able to contribute on the court, not saying that TMac is gonna out for a long period) and SF3 and Mike James were supposed to be our replacement killer. Sadly these gentlemen did not play up to their own capabilities so far.

    I have said that he takes a break for a while. We need the players who can fight through the game without any unexpected problem. Someone will instead of him to play well in the games like playing against Denver. In this case, T-Mac should backup the lineup out of starting . Trust me, Adelman.

    lol, those quotes really do suck. it's one thing for a fan to say that, and yes there's probably some truth to it, but you don't fall on that as the freaking head coach.

    I agree on the Gundy part, but Aldeman has point. Scheduling for the Rockets has been brutal so far. But it still doesn't account for the team's play. He needs to get something going here before the season is a complete loss.

    I hope he isn't out for a long period of time. However, if he was it would probably be better for my sanity as then my expectations would be low...I could accept that we would suck and would not be expecting the team to fulfill those ideas of contending that they were selling this offseason....that I heavily bought into.

    That's just speculation like everyone else is doing. Which is why the MRI is necessary.

    We'll now for sure know. And you can admit you'll feel relieved knowing for SURE instead of educated-guessing it.

    What the hell is wrong with this tracy?why is he so fragile.
    If you are not perfectly recovered, dont be back.
    We dont need you to come back and beat some underdog team to prove us that we cant win without U.

    I doubt it is anything serious. If it was he would not be walking, moving and dunking the ball.

    The MRI should clear up any doubt.

    If they find some loose miniscus tear or somthing it should only require arthoscopy and he could be back within a month.

    But Clutch is right, if they find something after Tmac has been telling them something is not right, they need to rethink their methods.

    My guess is that Tmac's propensity for crying wolf probably played into their decision.

    Here is to hoping it is still just a bruise.

    Let's just hope this isn't as serious as his "torn" ligament in his elbow.

    If I'm correct, this is the exact same injury (knee bone bruise) that Ahman Green has and has been dealing with all year. He has been on SportsRadio 610 every week talking about how it feels great one day and then it will flair up again the next. Both he and Andre Ware say it's an injury that is not serious but just very painful especially when you try to cut and plant your foot. Ware said, when he had it, it took months and a lot of rest to finally get over it.

    That all is if the MRI comes back and it's not more serious.

    Hey dumbass,

    Why not get an MRI in the first place??? :confused: :mad:

    Nah...... Lets see if you can play on it - make it worse - then get an MRI as a last resort..... Unbelievable......

    I dont know who to be pissed off at:

    Tracy for being such a stubborn jackass.

    The Rockets for not making him get an MRI immediately.

    keith jones said an mri want necessary,so he backed tmac,even said if they said "well you have to" tmac would do it and not fight it.,at least he gave it go.but i would rather him sit out instead odf missing one,coming back then play a half. we need steve inshape incase tmac is out for a long time.maybe rick told him to stay and work out
