Foot injuries for a big man can kill a career. Hard work, rehab and therapy won't solve the problem. I agree that this injury is probably the turning point for Yao. Hope we are both wrong.
Miserable,but the Rockets have to go on forward despite this loss. My love for them is as high as ever. Maybe one day we will succeed.
I was running on the threadmill at the gym and I see it on ESPN. I stopped..got off..went to the locker room..sat there thinking about how someone could have possibly jinxed us
Damn I just realized for all of our Chinese brothers and sisters on this board... Does this means no Yao for the Olympics as well?
I'm coping by..... moving to San Antonio....I've been thinking of switching jobs the past few weeks but was trying to delay until the end of the season to avoid being away from the Rockets...After seeing this, I just called and accepted an offer I had pending there...Hopefully being far enough away from Houston will help me cope with this season....I start my new job March 24...
I'm kind of at a loss for words right now..as if I wasn't frustrated enough already before hearing this news. They might have a shot...it's up to T-Mac now...and the team has bought into Adelman's system. Guess we'll see how tough they really are. That said...I'm glad baseball is almost upon us; that should take away some of the misery (if the Rockets indeed drop out of the playoffs).
I'm moving to L.A. Go Kobe and Gasol!! Well, not really. But I'll be at the Riverwalk come June. It's okay. There's always next season for the Rockets. Putting things in perspective, it's unlikely we would win it all this season anyways. Our rookies are good, but not enough experience to win in the playoffs. If we play Lakers in say, the Conference Finals, we would probably lose to them. But next year, our rookies will have a whole season under their belt and with Yao and T-Mac healthy, we would play even better than this season!
I'm in the denial... I don't really want to work now. I'm glad I didn't start a thread if we were getting spoiled with the winning streak or everyone would have pointed fingers at me for jinxing the Rockets. I'm not sure if I want to watch the game tonight or I'll probably shed a tear.
I'm not coping. I'm on suicide watch right now... But seriously, this hurts bad. I can't even watch Sports Center any time the Rockets lose a game. Any time something bad happens to the Rox, I feel like someone just kicked my groin. Geez, are we cursed...
well im just now hearing this for the first time.....i am ****in devastated....fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck

Wow, was not expecting to wake up to this. Goodbye #2 defense. This season just got a lot more dramatic.
I'm done with GARM for the rest of the year. I cant handle reading all this anymore. Dealing with reactionary nonsense in the wake of this is just too much. Nothing worse than reading ridiculous reactions in the wake of a pretty ****ty event. /cry
