    I know God was a Rafer fan for years, but looks like he's got a soft spot for T-Mac too. To me it looked like a pretty bad twist of the right ankle for Budinger ... hopefully not too serious.

    We need Budinger, I hope it's nothing serious.

    McGrady's minutes will probably increase.

    that looked pretty bad. look at our bench's reaction when cbud fell down. they were like, "*******!"

    hopefully he'll just miss a game or 2.

    I thought he broke it...I broke mine the same way about 3 years ago....and it took 6 months to fully heal.

    Let's hope his youth and flexibility will save him....

    Because China is a communist country with an atheist belief system. He is proving to them his existence, showing them who really is the big guy in town. :grin:

    It takes long time to recover from sprained ankle. At least 4 weeks... really bad luck...

    I doubt he broke it.

    If he did he would have to be carried out on a stretcher, but he managed to walk out with it.

    Now knowing how your crystal ball works, please keep believing he broke it ;)

    Expect him to miss around 2-4 weeks.

    Ankle injuries are never good :(

    Wasn't there a game earlier on where Chase was supposed to sit out due to an ankle problem but was OK to play on game day?

    If he's out does this means Mike Harris?

    I walked out on my broken ankle too......

    It swelled up, and when I went in for the X-ray, they found hairline fractures on the inside and outside, I was in a walking boot for 6 weeks, but wasn't fully healthy on it for 6 months.

    Either JT or Tmac. I would bet money on T-Mac increasing his minutes while Ariza continues to login heavy minutes.

    I think he had this ankle problem this season. only the first time hurts. I hope this one is just a minor repeated injury.

    Yeah DD is right. Any ankle injury (unless it's completely f'ed up) can be walked out initially, but as soon as you rest that ankle, it will swell up pretty bad, regardless of the extent/severity of the injury.
