    Short of T-mac getting injured instead it's the worst player to get injured for us in this series.

    this is what happens when players hit 30. the injuries catch up or they break down more easily.

    you gotta be kidding me...you're gonna blame landing on somebody's foot because of their age??

    he's had ongoing hamstring problems. that could effect his flexibilty, or the way he landed, or ability to absorb the impact. if he'd been fully healthy would he had a better chance of being alright?

    Are we doomed to have major injuries? Reminds me of 04-05 with Juwan Howard's injury vs Dallas,

    I hope we don't catch an actual "break."







    Again.

    his hamstring had nothing to do with him landing on somebody's foot and spraining his ankle

    and in regards to him breaking down, he has been one of the most durable players for this team the last couple of years...his hamstring has been the first injury problem he's had here in houston...

    this game shows how crucial we need rafer...bobby jackson cannot run an offense to save his life... :(

    last year I thought we lost to the Jazz because of Rafer's play. This year we lost because we didn't have Rafer. If he was healthy for the first two games, and if he hadnt gone down in game 6, maybe things would have worked out differently.
