    sprained knee is not fun. i had one of those. ended up 4 weeks can't walk. the ER doctor drew a few ounce of blood from my knee. didn't tear anything, but still couldn't walk for 4 weeks. then after that a few month before i could jump again. my knee isn't the same anymore. it didn't look good for Deke. :(

    I'm extremely saddened by this. It's a huge blow. Our guys probably will not be able to recover from this.
    I wish Deke could go out on his own terms and make it to the 2nd round. Alas that seems no longer to be the case.

    I'm also worried about it, maybe this is the last game of Deke.

    NBA TV said the Portland doctors thought it might be a ruptured tendon.

    Can a strain heal fast ?? :( This just really messed up my day and the joy in watching the playoffs. The one guy who deserved this the most goes out. Wtf is wrong with Rockets players, last year Yao out, this year Deke out. Is this like Yin and Yang huh ?? :(

    muscle strain and ruptured tendon can be hard to tell the difference without a MRI. They are connected and when it is all swollen nothing can be known.

    He broke his tibia? Are you sure?

    I did that when I was 19 years old...that is some serious pain.
