    so, me saying one month is not that bad, hah.

    the girl after Yao's dad running to the rest room is Yao's girlfriend. Ye Li.

    Unlike ligaments and menisci, bone heals fast and usually without any major long term complications. Sure we would lose some games without Yao, but at least there's a good chance Yao will be good as new when he returns. :cool:

    I say this means AT LEAST 10 weeks before YAO is back to form
    Even if he back in 6 . . .the next 4 will be getting his wind back
    and
    getting Game ready

    I'm not overly concerned
    all the rockets have to do is make the playoffs
    with
    Yao healthy.
    T-Mac at 80%
    and
    they will goto the second Round
    I have little doubt of that

    ASIDE
    Note to JVG . . it is time to COACH YOU *SS OFF

    It's times like these that I tell myself that all this is is just a sport where guys throw round things into a hoop and in the grand scheme of things, sports is not that important....but fock I feel like shyt.

    Back to the drawing board for this organization. What's the future for this team? Rebuild by tanking the season or have Yao come back to win enough so we end the season with a bad lottery position.

    Have faith guys, when Odom went out i to thought the Lakers were in deep doo-doo but i found myself watching the team step-up i expect nothing less then that to occur. Rockets will be fine the Rockets are not gonna let this season slip away like it did last year either a trade will happen to bring help or other guys will step-up big time.

    At least with Rockets and Yao, it's obvious things are looking up and there's so much hope. The Texans does not look good at all.

    :confused: That would be like 12 weeks? I think Yao would be back after all-star break.

    Mark this time and date to reflect back on it !! I really think there is more to T-Mac than spasms..He has talked about retiring and playing baseball in China...You can do those things with a bad back...Spasms go and come they don't last weeks. I get them and at most I am in pain for 3-4 days but with pain pills I don't feel **** !!

    They're not making the playoffs without Yao and T-Mac. The West is too stacked. The real question is at what point do the Rockets give up on the season and start tanking.

    Van Gundy is going to lose all his hair now. I wouldn't want to be in JVG's shoe right now, the injury to Yao and TMAC got to be killing him inside right now.
