    pick and rolls with Tmac and Landry surrounded by shooters all day long....Only thing I'm worried about is keeping Jamison off the boards.

    And they are without Butler and Arenas, we have no excuses dropping this one at home. That's why we have 2 all-stars! ;) T-Mac will get it rollin' early, watch...

    It's quite possible that Yao was favoring his ankle so he has been overexerting his foot

    A stress fracture can keep one out for weeks.

    STOP SAYING STRESS FRACTURE.....stressing me the fudge out.

    They will be fine playing up tempo ball.....back cuts and pick & rolls all night. Be happy it's against Washington and not Dallas.

    Scola
    Landry
    Shane
    Mac
    Skip

    Let go!

    I dont know. Maybe the media relation guy just doesnt want to rush to any conclusion b4 the results. Both Wang Meng and Jon Feigen said Yao's ankle was hurt in the Bucks game. Wang Meng is close to Yao and he gets his information from Yao. So, it's all up to what u believe. But Wang Meng reported this 2 days ago.

    It doesn't sound good. MattJ just posted a thread that there is a press conference at 1pm. I'm worried.

    Granted, the last game the Rockets lost was when Yao didn't play, but that was against the Jazz who've been just as hot as us since early January. This is the Washington Wizards who are missing 2 of their stars, are a mediocre ballclub, and are on the 2nd night of a back-to-back. If we can't get this one, we don't deserve to flirt with a 16-game winning streak.

    I just hope this is a precautionary measure and isn't anything serious.
