    this is what pisses me off, how long do you sit out with a calf-strain, and some people call yao soft when he was prob playing this whole season injured and in pain, now we know why portland let him go

    :mad:

    That's stupid. Of course we could use his contributions right now. We have only 9 players. This sounds just like when Rafer was out for an extended period with an injury and everyone just wanted to make crap up.

    Correction: we only have 8 players. Stro is also out. Our bench tonight consisted of Luke, Mooch and Baxter.

    Is it possible that Sura will be the next/first Rocket to return to the lineup?

    While Yao, McGrady, Swift, DA, Barry, uh did I miss anyone? sit in the hot tub and talk to their investment advisors on their cell phones....

    Or maybe they are planning a group return together on Chinese New Year. Sorta like one of those superhero groups imprisoned in a powerful prison and busting out together just in time to save the world!

    Perhaps they have a long poker game going in the training room.

    Gawd this is frustrating, especially since JVG has a muzzle on the injury update PR person.

    I hope Van Gundy knows who he wants in the draft.

    lol :D that would scare the heat.


    i don't think DA is being kept out because he wasn't playing well earlier. obviously the team would like him back right now wince we only have 1 SF on the team (bowen).

    just having one more nba player would be enough to maybe win a close game down the stretch. we thought rafer, jho, and wesley all sucked early on, look at them now. they all have great games but it isn't enough.
