    good point. shane won't score 40 and rafer won't keep up his hot shooting. juwon and bonzi will have to step up again... niether of them did much in the first half.

    3-4 weeks? WTF? What do the basketball gods have against the Rockets?

    Hmm, on the other hand, when Tracy comes back (sonner than Yao of course) do you think he can carry this team to a winning or at least .500 record with Yao out?

    they are usually just speculating. they almost never get the info right.

    3-4 weeks seems like a long time for a bone bruise.

    Should our fate be determined by Rafer's shots? Be DJ...shoot as a last alternative

    And I don't think they have finished MRI yet, so they won't have any diagnosis YET....

    How's Luther Head, Juwan Howard and Bonzi Wells doing? Good? Bad? Tired? Confused? For some reason, I'm thinking Juwan will heat up in the second half.

    Just go to Shane. Be consistent and don't try to do wierd things.

    Juwan, Shane, & Bonzi
    Play inside out.
    isolate Shane.

    last option: Rafer's shots

    actually, I think one month is reasonable.
